64 years ago today, the "H" bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. An estimated 140,000 dead not to mention the injured, those who died of cancer and all those who were born afterwards with congenital defects. I remember marching in Scotland on several of the anniversaries and people still do in protest against Faslane. We never learn .. nuclear arms proliferate but it seems that a few countries who belong to the "Inner Circle" keep their weapons for the sake of peace and feel they are the arbiters of who can join such an exclusive club. Of course, there are a few countries who don't agree so where do we go from here??
