Hiroshima.





Esse vai em inglês mesmo. Foi um comentário que deixei neste excelente blogue: Fogonazos. Leia o post antes de ler meu comentário. As fotos são de uma carcaça de bomba atômica do mesmo tipo da Little Boy, solta sobre Hiroshima, tiradas no Imperial War Museum.

It's not about 1945's Japan or U.S. It's not about us and them. It is about humans been doing this since theirs very early days. The bomb was an instrument of this capability of doing evil to ourselves. It should remain as a symbol of the rational power to kill that we have. It's a terrible power that should not be used. But what happens is just the contrary: it is the rule. Humanity killing humanity. The bomb is grain of dust in our evil self history. So, our rational power should be used to educate ourselves to get rid of such capability. But what we find? A bunch of nations with an arsenal ready to clean the surface of Earth. A percentage of world population ready to extinguish itself. For that, a return to my firsts words: it is not about nations or momentum, it is about not destroy ourselves and debate it in a effective way. The existence of such arsenal is equivalent to the bombing itself. A realistic viewer can says that the very tomorrow doesn't exists, for the such power that we created and had on constant stand by. A fantasious viewer can says that we should get rid of this power to get the reason out from the realistic viewer. But, that´s a debate as far as the pain showed in these photos.
