Sundance Film Festival '07 - Hiroshima Survivor Shigeko

oh my god, that was the most heartbreaking thing i've ever seen.

Liber AL vel Legis. sub figura CCXX.

I had the honor of meeting Shigeko when she was in NM a while ago. She is such a gracious lady, and what a dynamic little person. I was truly blessed to meet her.

aww shes tiny shes like the height of a little kid

I cannot believe you had the audacity to say this.

I will in no way minimize the suffering caused by the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. There are no words that satisfactorily describe the horror of nuclear war.

I will also not condemn the US for its actions. A land invasion of Japan would have been horrible for both sides. The destruction would have been widespread and the suffering would have been greater.

If the bomb had not been dropped, it is possible a nuclear war with Russia would have happened.

Urgh You Don't Know.You Have A Point But they murder children and women and they really messed them up if you didnt see the doc.So in this no one won it was just full of pain and suffering epecialy for the familes And Also they problay threw like small bombs we decide to bomb not just 1 but I Belive like 3 towns or citys.So try to feel a little sympathy those were familys they had nothing to do with the war going on they were living their life until we decide to go and destory it

What an Ass Hole you are.

agreed, we had 4 other options to its just not right to kill 200,000 men women and children and not only that we left the survivors with physical and mental scars. we left so many children as orphans and destroyed homes and left them to starve and dehydrated. If you've seen the movie the tell if you drank water you would die instantly its just disgracful especially when we had four other options!
