Aug 6, when a jubilant Pres Truman announced we had deployed "the power of the sun" on #Hiroshima, falls--curiously--on the Feast of the Transfiguration, when Jesus appeared to his disciples in a dazzling light, like the sun or flashing lightening. Two irreconcilable paths.

Epic failures on all nations involved in aggressions that preceded and continued into WWII; these failures haunt and hurt the world, including people, our physical environments and our thought processes.馃槩

I鈥檝e been to the Hiroshima museum. There was no reason for either bomb but to show Stalin & Mao what we had. I feel some Japanese officials may have been complicit in striking a deal but I have no proof. Stalin was advancing on JP & they were terrified. Wanted to surrender. 1/
