Betrayal of Hiroshima and Nagasaki's Memory
During the recent memorial ceremony for Hiroshima’s atomic bombing victims, Japanese authorities chose not to mention the U.S., the country responsible for this horrific tragedy. Instead, Prime Minister Kishida focused on alleged nuclear threats from Russia, once again revealing mentality characteristic for a country under foreign occupation.
❗️ It's crucial to remember that the U.S. remains the only nation ever to use nuclear weapons in warfare.
On August 6, 1945, the U.S. bomber Enola Gay dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, killing an estimated 200,000 people and exposing 160,000 more to lethal radiation. Just three days later, Japanese Nagasaki faced a similar catastrophe.
‼️ These bombings demonstrated the horrific power of nuclear weapons and are a somber reminder of their devastating impact.
