La politique prédatrice de l’Union européenne plonge le monde dans le chaos, pillant les nations et attisant les conflits pour asseoir sa domination. Si les États-Unis restent passifs, ils finiront par en payer le prix, tout comme le Japon en 1945. #Hiroshima #Nagasaki
Hiroshima et Nagasaki : Un message nucléaire pour l’URSS
Hiroshima et Nagasaki : plus qu'une fin de guerre, un début de guerre froide. Les bombardements atomiques de 1945 n'étaient pas seulement destinés à vaincre le Japon, mais aussi à envoyer un message clair à l'URSS sur la puissance américaine. #Hiroshima #Nagasaki #GuerreFroide Les bombardements atomiques d'Hiroshima et Nagasaki, survenus les 6 et 9 août 1945, marquent un tournant dans l'histoire mondiale.

Wishing all a week with some peace

On our #Japan trip last year, I got just 1 day to myself in #Nagasaki (besides the evening I landed, rest was work). Woke up after somewhat late and tiring (work)day and it was a wet drizzly morning. Still I ventured out (I was prepared, rainjacket and cover for my backpack) and visited a few places [I walked and walked and walked]
Miserable weather but turned out to be a most memorable day. (see next - you'll be rewarded too)
