40 Hiroshima pictures they didn't want us to see
CantaloupeSwing rated 41 hours ago
Photographs showing the aftermath of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings of 1945. The very worst side of humanity. "..in Hiroshima, all that was left of some humans, sitting on stone benches near the centre of explosion, was their outlines." From the page: "Housewives and children were incinerated instantly or paralysed in their daily routines, their internal organs boiled and their bones charred into brittle charcoal." (Site found via IntrepidDreamer)

One of the most shocking images isn't where you see the victims; it's the still clock that stopped, like all other clocks and watches, at the exact time of the explosion. A very haunting photo when considered in context.

Very sad pictures about the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in World War 2.

"All the watches found in the ground zero were stopped at 8:15 am, the time of the explosion." CONTENT WARNING (It is all very sad - seb)

Mr. Yamahata's photographs are the most complete record of the atomic bombing as seen in the most immediate hours after the bombing. The New York Times has called Mr. Yamahata's photographs, "some of the most powerful images ever made".

War is sad and tragic and this should never happen again.

That does not bother me a bit. If we were in the same predicament, I would do it again, without thinking twice. Nothing against the Japanese, but war is hell, and anyone who chooses to go to war chooses to go to hell. With that being said, I would NEVER want my country to accept someone bringing hell to me without sending them some in return. WW2, 911, Whatever. These pictures are out of context if they are shown without pictures of concentration camps nearby, but then again, you already know that.

From the page: "40 Hiroshima pictures they didn't want us to see" Not gonna thumb this down, but awful writing. And who is "they" that doesn't want us to see these photos? I've seen these photos in various displays in both U.S. and Japanese museums and websites.
