Stop the Profiteers of
Armageddon!
Remember Hiroshima & Nagasaki!
Abolish All Nuclear Weapons Now!
On August 6, 1945, the US dropped a uranium fission nuclear bomb on the city of Hiroshima, Japan. Three days later, on Aug. 9th, the US dropped a plutonium fission nuclear bomb on the city of Nagasaki. In two blinding flashes of light, heat, and radiation, these cities were totally destroyed. Hundreds of thousands of people were killed and injured. Many died days, weeks, and months later from radiation poisoning. Army General and future President, Dwight Eisenhower, and other military leaders said, the dropping of the bomb was completely unnecessary. Japan was already defeated.
Today, Hawaii is a military command center and staging ground for nuclear war. Pohakuloa (PTA) is a training site for nuclear weapon systems. Weapons training at PTA has contaminated our island with radiation and other toxins. Join the movement to de-militarize Hawaii & the world. Peace Now!
But there are 9 nuclear Rogue Outlaw states still making, and possessing nuclear weapons: the U.S., Russia, China, Great Britain, France, North Korea, Israel, India, and Pakistan.
