You beat me to it, just read it in a Danish newspaper, so I have a link for that plus another English-Australian source:
http://politiken.dk/udland/article877090.ece http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/s...62-952,00.html Yes, very sad. I don't hope they did it on purpose, but rather as a result of bad weather, but still... none of the sources mentions this.

Quite true. I remember there was talk of a formal apology for the Pearl Harbor attack on the 50th anniversary. Didn't happen though.
