I am seeing much bad news today about the situation at Fukushima (more here), on this the 68th anniversary of the dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima - ostensibly "necessary" to end world war II. As I wrote on Hiroshima Day 2 years ago, that bomb didn't need to be dropped, & lots of people understand that now.
2 great articles you can read on this complex topic are
- The Hiroshima Myth. Unaccountable War Crimes and the Lies of US Military History
- Hiroshima Day: America Has Been Asleep at the Wheel for 64 Years
If you are in Toronto (Ontario, Canada) today, why not attend this event?
