	Kamikaze Pilots
		Kamikaze, which means "Divine Wind" in Japanese, was Japan's last attempt to balance the ever increasing technological and material advantage of the American forces advancing to Japan.
		The Kamikaze attack tactic was suggested on October 19, 1944, by vice-Admiral Onishi of the Japanese Navy, when he was assigned to command the air attacks against the huge American invasion fleet off the Philippines, and then realized that he had less than 100 operational aircraft for this task.
		They switched to the Kamikaze suicide tactics only when their disadvantage became so severe that even common sacrifice of soldiers was simply not enough, and a radical new weapon (guided missiles) was essential, and in its absence, they used the Kamikaze pilots as a substitute.

	Kamikaze
		The idea of kamikaze has been applied later in other parts of the world when the situation is hopeless.
		Instances are Selbstopfer in Nazi Germany in late World War II and terrorism that employs suicidal attack such as the September 11 terrorist attack, and suicide bombing in Israel by Palestinians.
		The Japanese forces had lost their power they had at the beginning of the Pacific War (it is officially the Great Eastern Asian War[?] in Japan) after their defeat in the Battle of Midway, and the US forces[?] were cornering the Japanese with its rich resources and strong industrial power.

	BELLUM - Operation Biafra Babies
		The Kamikaze pilot was primary a volunteer although exceptions existed, some pilots were clearly effected by propaganda and outer pressure - especially towards the end of the Kamikaze era.
		The Kamikaze was trained to think that the plane (the weapon) was an extension of them selves and that they should treat and control it there after (this also a common thinking in martial arts).
		Kamikaze pilots were thought (at least during the first part of the Kamikaze era) that they rather would return and try another day if they for some reason (due to engine failure, no target in sight, target out of range, etc.) couldn't perform an attack.

	Midnight Eye review: Kamikaze Taxi (1995)
		Kamikaze Taxi's numerous references to kamikaze warfare bring to mind the similar theme in Takeshi Kitano's Brother.
		Kamikaze Taxi asks the question of what it means to be Japanese and why some people are excluded from being just that.
		Perhaps owing to Harada's relative distance and detachedness from his homeland (he lived and worked in the US as a journalist and filmmaker for many years) Kamikaze Taxi is remarkably frank and open in its criticism of the less wholesome aspects of Japan.

	Kamikaze Images - American Views
		At a reunion of veterans who survived kamikaze attacks, Sholin "said he believes the suicide attacks during World War II and today have the same root cause," and he attributed it to fanaticism since "to the Japanese, it was like a religion as well" (Andrews 2002).
		Although very few kamikaze pilots were forced by superiors to carry out suicide missions, they lived in an environment where military officers demanded strict obedience and the pilots experienced intense social pressure to meet expectations of their comrades.
		The name "kamikaze" literally means "divine wind" in Japanese, and the word originally referred to a typhoon that destroyed a Mongolian invasion force off the coast of Japan in the late 13th century.

	iB::Topic::Corrections on kamikaze
		Kamikaze does mean divine wind, but the invading fleet was not Korean, rather it was Mongol.
		The Kamikaze attack may well not have been the intended term, but an adopted term, but its intent (the tokkotai) was very clearly a suicidal form of warfare.
		As I stated, Kamikaze [Tokkotai] was not a strategy of the Japanese military until late October 1944, rather a circumstantial decision led by the pilot.

	Kamikaze Origins
		Kamikaze attacks were organized suicide missions during WWII in which various types of warplanes would be strategically flown into a target enemy naval ship (Sasaki 2).
		The name kamikaze says a great deal about how the Japanese felt towards kamikaze missions and kamikaze pilots, as if the idea of the kamikaze was of divine origin.
		In conclusion, the kamikaze corps were given little chance to help win the war, because by the time of the first mission it was almost assured that Japan would be defeated.

	Kamikaze - Twista, Music Downloads - Online
		Review: To say that motor-mouthed Twista and producer Toxic took their time getting Kamikaze out is an understatement.
		Seems like Kamikaze is doomed from the start, but it's actually a fair album for two main reasons: the new lead single, "Slow Jamz," and the killer guest productions of Kanye West.
		Twista's style is stunning, doubly so for any aspiring rappers, but for those who just listen, it lacks the depth to carry a full album on its own.

	Kamikaze, Devine Wind that didn't blow
		Kamikaze, the Divine Wind, named in honour of the fortuitous typhoons that had wrecked Kublai Khan’s Mongol fleets in 1274 and 1281 and saved Japan from its first foreign invasions.
		Most of the kamikaze took off on their one-way missions from bases on Japan's southernmost island of Kyushu, and the largest base was in the town of Chiran.
		He is the grandson of Tore Torihama, a woman once called the kamikaze's "mama-san." She ran a small restaurant in Chiran where many of the pilots had their last meals and confided all the things they could not say in their heavily censored letters home.

		Warner and Warner (1982) narrates: At 10:49 A.M., when the kamikaze pilots had chosen their targets, Seki (the leader of the unit) indicated with a banking signal that it was time to go.
		They state that Kamikaze was an operation in which "the pilot, or the entire crew, of an attacking aircraft, eliminated even the remotest opportunity for survival once committed to the final dive against the enemy.
		One point that we must be careful regarding Yasukuni Shrine and the deaths of Kamikaze pilots, however, is that the idea of enshrinement to Yasukuni and becoming divine beings itself was not the motivational factor for the pilots to dive into the enemy ships.
