Default Monday, August 6, 1945, at 8:15AM Hiroshima : had to happen

[On Monday, August 6, 1945, at 8:15 a.m.
(Hiroshima time),
The American Boeing B-29 Superfortress,
the Enola Gay, flown
by Paul Tibbets (23 February 1915 – 1 November 2007),
dropped the nuclear weapon "Little Boy"
on Hiroshima, directly killing at least
70,000 people
,
including thousands of Korean slave laborers.
Fewer than 10% of the casualties
were military.
By the end of the year, injury and radiation
brought the total number of deaths to
90,000–140,000.

The population before the bombing
was around 345,000.
About 70% of the city's buildings
were destroyed, and another
7% severely damaged.]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroshima

Japan officially surrendered on
September 2, 1945, bringing an end
to World War II.




Before that First Atomic Bomb
Japan refused to stop its WW2 war,



Today in Japan, has a Ceremony
asking to end all Atomic Weapons?

But they never say sorry for their part in WW2

So 100% these Atomic bombs
were needed at that time
