It is now 80 years from the two atomic bombings of Japan and we should remember the consequences.
On a recent trip through the Hiroshima Peace Park and Museum it was so easy to see how horrible it was for the civilians, the innocent and worse still, the children. It is an event that should never happen again and yet Putin has mentioned the possibility and the bombs are still ready to go. “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” and those that ignore it and make threats are evil.
