this is a concern and soon to the last atomic bomb survivor civil begun. perhaps in less than twenty a city yes seven that it is i would like to pass on my grandmother still raise it to the younger generations or focus tonight my dream is to not let it die. how great is the threat of nuclear war today. nuclear weapons have become the currency of power. how do you explain that the five permanent members of the security council they are the ones who have the nuclear weapons. or the five most powerful states in the world. united states russia britain france china. so all india looks at just says that they're going to get into a nuclear club and pakistan israel's in there this constitutes a volcano of nuclear weapons likely rocked at any time. we thought the threat had disappeared but in iran. during the cold war we were

war each about the mutually assured destruction so-called not between russia and states that fear is gone however we are not all to the danger zones at all there are still some twenty seven thousand nuclear warheads of which twelve thousand generate are operative active. we shouldn't forget hiroshima and that is that. there is a new restaurant that democracies with nuclear weapons are five. weapons that were used as far as i go were mark hughes fired. what is the legacy of that weapon what does it hold in store for us.

next sunday he was two years old when she was exposed to the bone when she was twelve she developed leukemia and she hoped that if she made one thousand paper cranes she would be killed. here i'm a soldier after her death scream became a disability piece. i thought the cold war was over and the nuclear threat a thing of the past it's not a nightmare is alive and well with the help of the military strategies of the nuclear powers are the one hundred forty three thousand dead and he does she need to be soley remembered as the triumph of the u.s. over japan. from hiroshima to the pacific islands where nuclear testing took place the decisions made by american strategists are taking

a heavy toll on another generation. is a third generation he. her grandmother survived the radiation but he doesn't want the bomb to ever be used again. but i also discovered how alone much he wants because even here people don't care enough about this old weapon other than to be the highlight of the newseum. talking to my friends about my activism if they don't care about such serious matters. only the people who was then understand what happened under the mushroom cloud today it's not all it is rather difficult in these peaceful time to make young people understand how tragic it was maggie is the youngest died at the heat of peace memorial museum but she goes further than providing information her goal is to provoke fear and dread. that children has never

experienced an atomic bomb that's why i use simple language well trying to make an impact on of them it's amazing but it will. please let's look over here evolve that turned ball see the airplane. in that airplane and they were carrying the bomb into that airplane. is about do you know what time it was. the night of the. it was eight fifteen. i was in my house in front of the alter our i had been used paper spread out and was reading it line i had just opened it and i filled the bluish white light coming in from the garden and around the hole in it and it.

it was complete darkness and i couldn't move i was bowing to under the house eventually i managed to get out by walking barefoot across a wooden board people were completely blackened and burnt human others were torn apart or on one of them women were walking naked in the streets covering themselves or their hands ashamed. that was the ball the time when everybody finished breakfast the heat was so intense that flesh multiton blackened just like when you burn toast it was like

that. but it goes at that out of a disfigured corpses were naked except for the watches to go. as it were the most of this was all that was left to identify the bodies my skin rotted and parts of my own to destructed many to me could tea from herbs i drank his tea every day for the rest of the year since we didn't have medicine and what we had to use natural cures you know these are all children they were all bad food. these a policeman was trying to help but he was also a victim they didn't really have any medication so they use things like temper all oil to try to heal people oh did you step in there and it was a living hell of a leg hell on earth there. were that's great that you brought your children

here and you couldn't this is not a fun place to be but thank you thank you very much it's a good one and you see some blackened lunch boxes in another building please take your time to look at them. to member well it is freely difficult i don't want to remember. lucky's fight to convey the dreadful images runs counter to the priorities of our country actually japan looks for ways to rewrite its history we have many picture victims in the textbooks but. that can make you say as you please to. die. to vet young people who know. so the fact is fading away.

japan has pandas on you clear umbrella of the u.s. and its security policy there are no g.p.s. it's a necessary evil nuclear weapon in the society he. told explanation of. the united states. has be introduced to this country as well that make one means precipitate the end of the second world war and it saved a lot of people. i remember here were a shame as one great exiled patient i was delighted i had been fighting the japanese for four years i was a pearl harbor on a destroyer the morning there tired but as time went on with the knowledge that we could have won the war with all that use of that bomb. in began to regret that

hiroshima nagasaki there are power good cities at the mic one we were kept in touch because they wanted to know exactly how the effect wants to be. why their prime we used the bomb we. almost all. my in the who are area. would have had to capitulate in a few months. three days after he tossed it was not a sock seventy five thousand. the annual commemoration of the bombing gave me the opportunity to meet with for me from that assumption the student had just returned from the united states and i

took going to america historic losses and restarted the use all the time a bomb of literature rock salt i want to go there was a tiff and i got to have aspects drop in atomic bombs in japan let's think about and discuss this or what i was quite shocked by that question i realize that ended tell people about the consequences of that tell me why i'm going out but if. you my grandmother never told me anything i only heard the whole story quite recently or i have to read and to my second year of university. i thought this could be the only time i hear it but when i remember it's made me very happy. where you're alone with her. didn't have to strongly yes it was just the two of us i was always around her as i grew up but i discovered that she or was a grandmother i didn't know. it even with them with my grandma that has only always

leave her with a feeling of guilt. but she has never shown any anger looking towards the united states. when you and bill of other people destroy the. a further economic goal was the fire it was such a devastating experience. and destroys the will of the people. he. became a volunteer to be a guy i had to the speakon a study group and all the experiences. ha ha got my mother never talked about because she held gail to us that she survived how mother and sister were crying for help.

yes at the time we were all looking for her. she tried to fix her mother tonight how moderate couldn't it is to blot all over her but is it. my mistake i was at school playing marbles when suddenly pickled on flesh man and however i didn't see the flash of light out of one of the farmhouses was burning and i was very scared to see that you that's where my memory of the horrors stops and i'm just. what the snow my mother couldn't express herself normally was so my father was here or in

a psychiatric hospital i couldn't see her very own the doctors didn't link her condition to their told me. what they thought my mother was and that my mother had become insane. that she was put away in a place like a praise and see her there maybe is so sad oh yes. yes if the bond is the only thing in your mind you will go insane. eat up when i get a bit more undone or to nourish to talk about it but i must insist that cannot speak. it must mean of my daughter as a french woman. evolving on my daughter's child. kitty that the second child she got would fall out with what it was but she was born with a six fingers. in it was this my fault. it's that i was

exposed to the bone. some of it you have to see and i saw my grandchild covered in blood in his hands for the first time. this i saw the flash of the atomic bomb. bessie won't hold my oldest son had a problem with evolve in the hearts and over my soda and some of they had surgery and they found out that because it was genetic i blame myself if this is in the now more than a. buck a nice day for i was not afraid once i told the if that's of the moment would lead from one generation to the next one of the money. when the young people are worried they can turn to the radiation effects research foundation

established by american scientists after the bombs drop the institute gathers statistical studies on the victims of heat and that the city of. dujiangyan on my great town just the bugs. on the what's on the bottom two of her children died of cancer here is there a link. that we have been doing research based on statistical models since one thousand forty eight we have not found any link to it so we decided to study the d.n.a. of his night. stand generations. until now i hadn't really lena freight but i've heard that my generation has more problems than the second generation of farms that i know. cause all i know is. the diseases caused by bijan etic mutations are such a tragedy. what are you sure you want to know.

we also have newer information it's not really well understood a lot of the experimental what are called trans genetic type of thugs effects that would not necessarily appear in the children of people exposed to radiation but may even skip generations. until the results of the american japanese foundation's d.n.a. studies are now the younger generation is left wondering and given the social stigma attached to the radiation this doubt protects much and all the children of the. victims. my husband was upset and that his daughter was label to he baku showing the press.

this branded him to mean that when he proposed to me that i was he really bothered him. i was worried about what would happen to our children. it was considered a transmittable disease so i didn't know what would happen so. i thought well what if it happens it happens that. my love was stronger than my fear you know what i still worry that my wife and daughter will be affected by the moment it. a mother in law feels responsible and she suffers the most when. i was born and raised in hiroshima outsiders always emphasize that i am from hiroshima hiroshima hiroshima i don't enjoy that very much. because not only being from hiroshima do i feel you motivated to make

a contribution. that is a university as learned a lot about conflicts in the world. to the really is it himself always the children . this is the general. the nuclear powers are perfectly aware that their bombs are ten twenty one hundred. but with an down cynicism the military are searching for more flexible uses. there are discussions about the development of nuclear weapons of smaller caliber or capacity to penetrate deeper. american plans to develop what we call bunker buster bluffton's that we say will not spread radioactivity actually in such weapons only get a short distance under the earth which stir up more radioactive debris and again in the case of hiroshima that type of radioactive fallout was limited because it was

an air burst weapon that's not the same as how the all of your church your building materials themselves contaminated by the force of the explosion. now we've moved in the second nuclear age we have moved into an era when nuclear weapons are threatened for war fighting purposes if you simply have what does that our strategy huge bombs well that's more for the terror but if you have smaller weapons that might be a temptation to use them to smoke out taliban's or what have you. the superpowers plan their next nuclear armageddon the families of people she met might lanterns there is a surreal feeling. symbols and words are all that the japanese passed this have to confront the threat and these are loaded with the memory of having once been the bad guys and young people in japan except the fema of us at the. a.p. we should. feel good about eight ohm. we should all what.

we know. how to get. something done. on treats them doesn't mean we should be quiet yet. that's why we can't. be quiet and to announce. to higher on thousand japanese politicians mention two years ago that perhaps it's time for japan to consider the possibility of being nuclear weapons. and. japan house on rocket technology we have abundant put pony up a bundle put on. it's hard to tell all the general public

will react when government decides to go nuclear. my supposition this if. south korea and north korea get the united and they will have nuclear weapons overnight japanese public opinion will change. your focus and you cleared to terence's a fact second about it saddens me to think that we have found no other way to live in peace when i was looking on and on aim for japan acquires this bomb this means that for less than a few ashima and nagasaki has been lost. second mouthful the twenty first century

will be the center of china this prediction scares many japanese and makes them think that it's stronger with american states now he does she my is not an end it's a scream heralding a new chapter in human history the nuclear age stimulated by the scope of the devastation the united states launches its pursuit of the absolute weapon. its aleck's the pacific ocean for its laborde tory but this laboratory is inhabited. imagine if. it was done. and i. went and job. that is one point six a couple an hour or she my shot every day for twelve years i would they feel what that. i mean they they just sit. with their the fight. evelyn lives in honolulu where she attends

college like other inhabitants of the marshall islands an archipelago lost in the middle of the civic ocean she lives in exile force away by the fallout of nuclear testing fifty years later her island is still contaminated and the united states are not really taking full responsibility of what they did. there's a saying all. we're going to give you one would think and it just seemed fair to me. they robbed them off the island and the island the marshall and this. is where you're like god intends you to be. my day is to. finish school and my people. the economy every country depends on american aid and the balance dialog between the islanders and the almighty america

tears the young woman apart how do you obtain justice from the united states when you are marshallese maybe with the memory the only weapon evelyn inherited the reason that americans are giving us money because of us of white british i was just to go and make sure that their story was and they still remember it so well and suffer more from the law. without a conference on you because the title was think i said at the bottom i did a presentation. and they were all shocked because they they were like. want. me in there was there was a bomb in the marshall. and the even bigger than the one in the regime. and i'm like yeah and they're like where is the march i. need to learn that martial allen was. to know why i just didn't know.
