My heart goes to the innocent souls (some 140,000) most of whom died on this day 60 years ago in Hiroshima, Japan when the atomic bomb was dropped. Same for those 80,000 in Nagasaki 3 days later.

nameslave said:FYI: The JAPANESE did NOT initiated the aggression; the Japanese militarists did. Many Japanese anti-war activists at home were actually persecuted. It's really sad that some people cannot tell the difference.
The bottom line is: those 220,000 innocent civilians were NEITHER responsible NOR accountable for anything their militant rulers (whom they did not elect) did.
