no. the nuclear age is sixty years old. and as far as visa is concerned soon to the last atomic bomb survivors will begun. perhaps in less than twenty or thirty yes seven that it is i would like to pass on my grandmother still rated 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 current your power. how do you explain that the five permanent members of the security council they're the ones who have the nuclear weapons. and they are 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 that could erupt at any time. we thought the threat had disappeared but we were around. during the cold war we were war each about the mutually assured destruction so-called not between russia 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 this. is a new restaurant that democracies with nuclear weapons are five. weapons are for use as far as i go we're not used 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. 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 slowly 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 mikey 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. they don't care about such serious matters sort of taken lightly. only the people who then understand what happened under the mushroom cloud today it is very difficult in these peaceful time to make young people understand how tragic it was maggie is the youngest died at the heat oshima peace memorial museum but she

goes further than providing information her goal is to provoke fear and dread. of the children has never experienced an atomic bomb that's why i use simple language well trying to make an impact on a family it's amazing that some us. please let's look over here. that turnbull see the airplane. in that airplane when they were carrying the bomb in that airplane and oh. do you know what time it was. unable. it was eight fifteen. i was in my house in front of the altar i had been used paper spread out and was

reading it why i had just opened it and i filled the bluish white light coming in from the garden on the whole and you know it it and . 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 had burnt human as were torn apart or none of them women were walking naked in the streets covering themselves with their hands ashamed.

that was the ball of the time when everybody finished breakfast the heat was so intense that flash mile to it and blackened just like when you burn toast it was like that. but it was it that i disfigured corpses were naked except for the watches as you do. doesn't give them a piece was all that was left to identify the bodies my skin rotted and parse 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 these are all children they were all bad food. these beliefs mother was trying to help but she was also a victim they didn't really have any medication so they use things like temper all oil to try to hew go a step and there. it was

a living hell of a leg hell on earth and there. were that's great that you brought your children here if you didn't know this is not a fun place to be but thank you thank you very much it's a good one and you see some black and launch boxes in other buildings please take your time to look at them. to member world it is freely how 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 really how many picture will do the fixed groups but. that can make you say as you please to. die. to vet people who know. so the fact is fading

away. japan has pandas on you clear umbrella of the u.s. it security policy you know g.p.s. it's a necessary evil nuclear weapon to use a city deep. hole explanation of not only if you know the states. has been introduced to this country as well that make one means precipitated the end of the second world war and it saved a lot. of people. i remember here a shame as one great exiled patient i was delighted that i had been fighting the japanese for four years i was a pearl harbor on a destroyer the morning bear tired but as time went on and with the knowledge that

we could have won the war with all that use of that bomb i was 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 cut off almost all. mayan bohu area. would have had to capitulate in a few months. three days after he lost it was not a stock at seventy five thousand. the

annual commemoration of the bombing gave me the opportunity to meet with the me from. the student had just returned from the united states and i took on the american historical arsenal and restarted the use of their tommy bomb literature rock salt or to go all the positive and negative aspects of dropping atomic bombs in japan let's think about and discuss this or. i was quite shocked by that question but it i realize that then to tell people about the consequences of that told me i am going out by the. my grandmother never told me anything i only heard the whole story quite recently all i have to read and to my second year of university. i thought this could be the only time i hear it i think i remember it's made me very happy. where you're alone with her what did i share just thrown really didn't pass it was just the two of us i was always around

her as i grew up but i discovered that syria was a grandmother i didn't know. it even with my grandma that hasn't always leave her to feeling of guilt. but she has never shown any anger looking towards the united states. when europe and will of others all destroy the. a further economic goal was the fire it was such a devastating experience. and destroys the will of the people. he said before i became a volunteering guy i had to the speak in a study group and all the experiences.

ha ha ha my mother never talked about it because she felt gail to us that she survived how mother and sister were crying for help. and yes at the time we were all looking for her. she tried to teach 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 dawned flash 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 nine is.

what the snow my mother couldn't express herself normally of us so my father was here or in a psychiatric hospital i couldn't see her very own the doctors didn't clean her condition to there told me. they thought my mother was so that my mother had become insane. that she was put away in a place like a praise and see her there laziness so that's you know how go yes if the bomb is the only thing in your mind you will go insane. eat up when i get a bit more under not to wish to talk about it but i must. say that cannot speak. it my daughter is a french woman. evolving to my daughter's child. kitty

the second child she got wonderful. with but it was a she was born with the six fingers. in it was this my fault. that i was exposed to the bone and. some of it you have to see when i saw my grandchild covered in blood in his hands for the first time. this is so with a flash of the atomic bomb. of us he won't. my oldest son had a problem with evolve in the hearts and over months and some of they had surgery and they fell into that because it was genetic i blame myself if this is in the now more than. buccaneers therefore i was not afraid of what i told the facts of the 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 that he and that the city of. dujiangyan on my great town just the books. on 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 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. i

know. how the disease is caused by the genetic 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 effects that would not necessarily appear in the children of people exposed to radiation but maybe 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 at the front of him to meet that when he proposed to me the fact 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 i still worry that my wife and daughter will be affected by the bomb that. my mother in law feels responsible and she suffers the most when. i was born and raised immature shima outsiders always emphasized that i am from

hiroshima hiroshima hiroshima i don't enjoy that very much. does not me being from hiroshima do i feel motivated to make a contribution. and so since university as learned a lot about conflicts in the world. to the realization himself always the children . this is in 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 a capacity to penetrate deeper. american plans to develop what we call bunker buster weapons that we say will not spread radioactivity actually such weapons only

get a short distance under the earth which store of more radioactive debris and again in the case of hiroshima that type of radioactive fallout was limited because it was an air burst weapon it's not the same as how they did 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 weapons that are stretched huge bombs well that's more for the town 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 seen the light 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 to see much of a sucky. we should. feel good about eight ohm. we should go for what. we know. to count get. something done. on streets then he does it maybe we should be quiet. that's why we can't. being quiet and to announce. to higher on thousand japanese politicians nation two years ago that perhaps it's time for japan to consider the possibility of being nuclear weapons.

on rocket technology we have abundant with tony abundant 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 sakit but it saddens me to think that we have found no other way to live in peace when i was looking on the name for japan acquires this bomb this means that

the lesson a few ashima and nagasaki has been lost. second mouthful the twenty first century will be the center of. this prediction scares many japanese makes them think that it's stronger with the united 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 a bomb that is one point six equivalent out there she my shot every day for twelve years i would they feel what that. they this is sick

or what they have 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 pacific 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 doesn't seem fair to them. they rob them off the island and the island the marshal and this. is where your what does intend to be. my job 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 like wish i was just a girl and make sure that their story was in the way they still remember it so well and suffer more from the law. i would at a conference on you because the title was think a set of the bob i did a presentation. and they were all shot because they they were like. want. me there was there was a bomb in the marshall. and the even bigger than the one in the regime. and i'm like yeah like where is the marsh i.

need to learn the martial allen was. to know why i just didn't know. it didn't make sense. to. actually being. one of them from their. holidaymaker who wouldn't dare to swim so deep. a tourist would be scared of such cold water. and would never die if nothing is seen within a monster. they are not to lists the are researchers if and few more so on land then in deep water.
