On Bombing



On this day in 1945 Colonel Paul Tibbets flying the B-29 Superfortress ENOLA GAY dropped an enriched uranium fission bomb on Hiroshima, Japan.

Some people have a problem with this.

I don't.

 

From Xerxes99 at Fark.com as a caption to this photograph:

Nothing more beautiful in the world if you ask me...Especially when you get to witness trembling Japanese tourists taking pictures of it.


It's amazing how many problems can be solved with the application of weapons grade fissionables. 

We now return you to your regularly scheduled reality.
