Hiroshima survivor calls for end to atomic weapons 75 years after deadly attacks

August 6 marks 75 years since the US attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War Two. The "hibakusha" -- literally "person affected by the bomb" -- have for decades been calling for the abolition of nuclear weapons.

if not for the compulsion to peace through atomic weapons, then from Japan itself there was nothing left like from Warsaw! a ground invasion would be a kadostrophe, a million casualties would be among the Japanese alone!
