◆REMEMBERING HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI
8/01/03 (Month/Day/Year ?)by David Krieger (上掲)
−−−Now looking back at these terrible events, inevitably our collective memory has faded and is reshaped by current perspectives. With the passage of time, those who actually experienced the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki have become far fewer in number. Although their own memories of the trauma to themselves and their cities may remain vivid, their stories are unknown by large portions of the world's population. The message of the survivors has been simple, clear and consistent: "Never Again!" At the Memorial Cenotaph in Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park is this inscription: "Let all souls here rest in peace; for we shall not repeat the evil." The "we" in the inscription refers to all of us and to each of us. (以下略、引用終わり)

◆The Hiroshima Myth
LewRockwell.com, August 2, 2006 ?
−−−Now that we live in the nuclear age and there are enough nuclear weapons spread around the world to destroy civilization, we need to face the fact that America is the only country to have used this awful weapon and that it was unnecessary to have done so. If Americans would come to recognize the truth, rather than the myth, it might cause such a moral revolt that we would take the lead throughout the world in realizing that wars in the future may well become nuclear, and therefore all wars must be avoided at almost any cost. Hopefully, our knowledge of science has not outrun our ability to exercise prudent and humane moral and political judgment to the extent that we are destined for extermination. (記事本体終わり、引用終わり)
