Video Description:
And the nuclear weapons research in Oak Ridge, Tennessee continues right now, every day.
--- Ten thousand children played in the playground Swinging on the swings, didn't hear the sound Of the single plane that flew overhead The third shift workers were just going to bed There was a flash of light and a rumbling noise And gone in a instant, parents, girls and boys Ten thousand mothe
rs were boiling rice A thousand prisoners of war were rolling their dice Hoping they'd survive this terrible storm When each young man in his uniform Vanished in the air in the blink of an eye One moment they lived, the next they all died Hiroshima, Hiroshima Ten thousand chickens were sitting on e
ggs Beaks in their wings, resting their legs Ten thousand farmers were looking at their fields Planning the harvest, guessing at yields Dreaming of life after the war The next second they weren't living no more Hiroshima, Hiroshima Ten thousand lovers made lover to each other Each one of them think
ing there might not be another Living so long with death everywhere Much more than one person alone can bear But there wasn't time for a final kiss Who could've known it would end like this Hiroshima, Hiroshima A hundred thousand people were living their lives Grandparents, children, fathers and wi
ves Now they're just shadows on the street In such a quick burst of incredible heat Now listen to them talk about doing it again From whence came the souls of these terrible men Hiroshima, Hiroshima Created May, 2003 Copyright David Rovics 2003, all rights reserved

You are just as complicit as the Japanese civilians were, if not more so since you have greater access to information.
´t understand why there are still people justifying the nukes on Japan. There´s no justification for using a nuclear bomb, not even the attack on pearl harbor. It´s not only the thousands and thousands of civilians that where killed in one single second, it´s the pain and the horror it caused fo
r so many people for so many years afterwards.
