This is a response post to Susan blog post on what we had discussed during WWII.
Hiroshima. Nagasaki. We're learning about these places and their disastrous histories in (surprisingly)Writing class, as the unit we're studying is peace and how to achieve it and it was used as an example of using violence to achieve peace, since the bombings ended World War Two
What kind of civilization are we, what kind of people, where these kinds of things can happen and we can just move on with our lives?
I agree with you Susan, its total bullsh*t for what countries have done to other countries, but in all ends there is no way to change it, so the only thing we can do is forget about it, it might seem cruel to forget such deaths but the way i see it is what if we forget such disasters... maybe if we can... people won’t repeat it... But that’s a probability that doesn’t seem like it will happen... people find the joy in the suffering of others may it be direct or indirect we all have made people suffer just for the joy.
In my eyes if humans can finally find ways to satisfy our enjoyments or needs less suffering will be caused. But that probably also a impossible feat but either way somehow the human race tries in all ends.
One more thing about this is that i know that the Atomic Bombing of Japan is unjustified since it really killed more citizen then it had soldiers, but you do have to agree Japan sort of started it and so America probably attacked with such bombs thinking of lesser consequences but i still think it was a grudge and really unnecessarily. Though if you think about it, do you think the war would have ended, ended even though we threaten them and showed them the power, they might just looked at death with nothing more than a glance. Even so i couldn’t believe that they had to blow up such cities that consisted mostly of civilians, people who were innocent from the war, such people brought into it in a instant of death and becoming casualties of war.
