Thanks Jon, for your comment.

I do not agree that it was necessary.
That is an excuse used by Americans to ease their conscience.

Eisenhower himself has written it was unnecessary. There cannot be any argument against it.

The Russians had started their invasion of Japan the day before Nagasaki. It was to deter Russian occupation of Japan, why the innocent civilians were vapourised.

Hitler thought killing the jews a necessity for his new world.

America will always have the blood of those hundred thousands of japanese on her hands. Anyone who continues to believe that it was a “necessary crime”, should rot in hell.

Sadly for the US, this was necessary in order to save US lives in an invasion of Japan it’s self. Truman’s hand was forced and out of the destruction, Japan has risen anew as one of Freedoms best allies. The horror is beyond imaginable but in the long run, necessary. God save us all.

Thanks for stopping by Khirod

I feel we may be seeing more of this topic before the year is out.
I sincerely hope to be proved wrong.

Thanks for igniting the thoughts about Hirosima and Nagasaki. History repeats itself if we do not learn anything from it.

Thanks tumerica,
thanks for stopping by to read my crazy ramblings.

August is a special month for me, I was born in August,
but every August starts with thoughts of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
This year as a blogger I decided to write my thoughts.

Thanks again

Thank you for this crazy-beautiful article. History not studied risks being repeated.

Thanks S,

62 years is a long time,
Hiroshima and Nagasaki is vague memory now.

We may well be witnessing the same again in Iran.

true earthPal,
we can dream of a nuclear-free world
maybe we may have one in future, radioactive, but N-free.

George Orwell wrote two months after Hiroshima,
that the atom bomb ushered into being an
indefinite “peace that is no peace”

Mankind is destined to live
happily ever after under a mushroom cloud.

Well I’m dreaming of a totally nuclear-free world but I guess you can’t uninvent stuff.

Other than that, I totally agree with you.

Indeed, America is the only nation ever to have used “the bomb”.

Thanks earthie,
since the nuclear powers have not agreed,
every country should be allowed to have their own.

Let the nuclear playing field be truly level for the entire human race.

Since India developed their own,
China has stopped flexing their muscles,
Pakistan tested us at the Kargil War and withdrew.

If Saddam really had a nuclear arsenal,
there would not have been an American invasion.
neither would they contemplate an invasion of Iran.
Their loud barks against the N Korean, have now settled into a whine.

Like I have written, the world is dominated by cowards with N-bombs.
No one has dared challange China over atrocities in Tibet.

If you visit India you will find,
a whole generation of an almost entire Tibetan nation
living as eternal refugees along the northern border states of India.

Let every David have their Nuclear slings,
That is the only way to stop the Goliath that is America.

The legacy of Hiroshima will always haunt us.

Nothing less than a global abolition of nuclear weapons is needed.
