Hiroshima

Sixty-four years ago today, the US detonated an atomic bomb over the city of Hiroshima, Japan. a few days later, they dropped another over Nagasaki.

May such weapons never be used again.

"unless some nutcase gets nukes".

That part.

My worry is that some country with a mad Ayatollah will get nukes. In fact, maybe the one case in which I might, maybe, possibly, accept the use of a big bomb as a lesser evil might be if Israel used one to take out an almost-developed nuclear facility in Iran. Maybe.

Or vice versa. There are no good guys over there.
