remembering Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Date: August 08, 2004 | 21 Jumada al-Akhir 1425 Hijriah
Blog: veiled4allah
Subjects: commentary
On August 6, 1945, America dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima; on August 9, on Nagasaki. I haven't seen much commentary about this, but here are some good articles from different perspectives:

Hiroshima Story

Targeting of Civilians at Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Remembering Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and the Dark Cloud over Civilization

In the Shadow of Hiroshima and Nagasaki

Also interesting is a collection of quotes from various prominent Americans at the time arguing that the atomic bombings weren't necessary; those quoted include General Dwight Eisenhower, General Douglas MacArthur, and Admiral William Leahy, among others.

Update 8/9/04: OK, here's another:
