Hiroshima Survivor Slams G7 Leaders for Embracing War & Rejecting Nuclear Disarmament

[Uncle Joe]

The G7 summit wrapped up Sunday in Hiroshima, where much of the summit focused on the war in Ukraine and China. While in Japan, President Biden and other world leaders paid tribute to the victims of the world's first nuclear attack — the U.S. bombing of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945 — laying wreaths at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial and planting a tree. But President Biden did not issue an apology for the attack, which killed an estimated 140,000 people and seriously injured another 100,000. For more, we speak with Setsuko Thurlow, who survived the U.S. bombing of Hiroshima in 1945 and devoted her life to nuclear disarmament. In 2017, she was chosen to accept the Nobel Peace Prize on behalf of the International Campaign to Abolish Nuclear Weapons.

2. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Large scale nuclear power, and our cavalier attitude towards

nuclear weapons, may do us in before, or as an accompaniment to, climate catastrophe—Something else the first world waves a cavalier hand to.

There are those here who talk like we could survive survive a nuclear exchange.
