I seem to have hit a nerve. Read my comment from 4 months ago. Bombing Hiroshima was wrong 60+ years ago, and we have Hiroshimas all around us, like in Darfur, for example. We allow them to happen because we see people as subhuman because they are not like us. Was Dylan praising Masters of War when he sang "Masters of War?" Nope, don't think so.
Read the lyrics, you will see the song is a commentary on the American belief (in my view, wrong) that bombing Hiroshima was necessary to end the war. There was also an implicit belief at the end of the war that American lives were more valuble than Asian lives - which, obviously, I do not believe. Nuclear weapons are not the answer -"Should've stopped it sooner, but now, it's not too late." We should stop before Hiroshima happens, again.
