Better them than us, right, Hon? - Mom, they didn't build an evil nuclear weapon like we did. |
Fallout (Lesley M.M. Blume) |
We saved lives. We wanted to demonstrate our new biggest bomb and terrorize the world.
Kill their children before they hurt ours! |
We rule. I'm going to go down to Home Depot and buy an extra big flag to fly in the front yard to show everyone how patriotic our family is and get a little one for the car. That'll show those Jap[anese]s!

Cycles in U.S. history: they won't happen again.
Quick: What's the official story?

The war crimes killed between 150,000 and 246,000 people, most of them civilians. They remain the only use of nuclear weapons in an armed conflict.
Japan formally cried "uncle" and surrendered to the Allies on August 15, six days after the U.S. bombing of Nagasaki and our allies the Soviet Union's declaration of war against Japan and invasion of Japanese-occupied Manchuria.
The Japanese government signed the peace instrument on September 2, effectively ending the war.
In the final year of World War II, the Allies prepared for an exciting invasion of the Japanese mainland.
This undertaking was preceded by conventional bombing and firebombing campaigns that devastated 64 Japanese cities, killing many civilians, destroying their homes and workplaces, and terrorizing them and their children.
The war in the European "theatre" pretended to come to a conclusion when Germany surrendered on May 8, 1945 [even though Adolf Hitler and top Nazi officials were allowed out of Germany on their way to the new country of New Swabia near Argentina.
Who will rage against the US War Machine? |
Having made peace with the Nazis and offered all of them jobs, successfully winning at least 1,000 applicants to have their records sealed and be protected from prosecution if they would work for the USA to create the CIA, NASA, in Werner Von Braun's lab making us intercontinental missiles and other secret weapons, and the Allies were able to turn their full attention to their Pacific War.
By July of 1945, the Allies' top-secret Manhattan Project had produced two types of atomic bombs, "Little Boy," an enriched uranium gun-type fission bomb, and "Fat Man," a plutonium implosion-type nuclear bomb.
The 509th Composite Group of the United States Army Air Forces was trained and equipped with the specialized Silverplate version of the Boeing B-29 Superfortress and deployed to Tinian in the Mariana Islands.
The Allies led by the Americans called for the unconditional surrender of the Imperial Japanese armed forces in the Potsdam Declaration on July 26, 1945, the threat being "prompt and utter destruction" if they didn't obey. The Japanese government ignored the ultimatum. So what choice did the Americans and Allies have. They had to kill everybody to show the emperor they meant business. More
Is there an alternative history?
.
New York Times bestselling author Lesley M.M. Blume reveals how one courageous American reporter uncovered one of the deadliest cover-ups of the 20th century — the true effects of the atom bomb — potentially saving millions of lives.
Just days after the United States decimated Hiroshima and Nagasaki with nuclear bombs, the Japanese surrendered unconditionally.
But even before the surrender, the US government and military had begun a secret propaganda and information suppression campaign to hide the devastating effects of these then-experimental weapons.
For nearly a year the cover-up worked — until New Yorker journalist John Hersey got into Hiroshima and managed to report the truth to the world.
Hooray for US War Machine! |
Since 1945, no nuclear weapons have ever been deployed in war partly because Hersey alerted the world to their true devastating impact.
This knowledge has remained among the greatest deterrents to using them since the end of World War II.
Released on the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing, Fallout is an engrossing detective story, as well as an important piece of hidden history that shows how one heroic scoop saved—and can still save—the world. More
