Last I heard, wasn't a boat from Japan recalled after that happened, even though it was carrying a dirty bomb and headed for San Francisco?

Been to the site. The Memorial is a...strange place. It seems very odd to feel such peace in a place that took such titanic violence.

Looking at Japan now, it's hard to imagine 61 years ago the brutality they inflicted upon surrounding nations.
Now we're allies. Oh the irony.
Something funny I found a little while ago.

No...I'm in the UK....Hiroshima is located in Japan...where oddly enough it's the 6th.

If I had invented an atomic bomb(unlikely as I usually find more creative means of causing trouble than total destruction) I would at least have it release huge clouds of red and white sparkles. That'd be pretty. :)

I just think it would have been less of a tragedy if everyone around Hiroshima went "OOh! AAH!" Instead of "Holy Shit!"
That way when people talk about surviving the Hiroshima blast, they would say, "It was really quite lovely. The dead missed a hell of a show."

More to the point, there's nothing to be gained through debate. Those who believe the bombing of Hiroshima was appropriate and those that believe it was a tragety(or even a war crime) are certainly not going to be swayed through debate.
So instead, we should discuss and debate the benefits of sparkles and car insurance!

I do not think it will be a state that will commit the next nuclear atrocity.
Any state that does will cease to exist.
I do think it will be a 'terror group'. And that is even scarier.

UMMM...america dropped the bomb, its still the 5th over here. we're not gonna celebrate the end of a cruel military dictatorship for another 4.5 hours.
Know what I find ironic? It took the devestation of both atomic bombs(which were, ironicly, designed as peace makers) to topple a dictatorship as racist and brutal as the imperial Japanese's.
Oh, and the picture really needs "pwned" in big letters.
