109.Hiroshima Day


The ‘Thought for the Day’ programme on 06 August 2019,  was on the use and abuse of nuclear weapons. Many spoke both in favour and against the possession  and manufacture of nuclear weapons. Even the  threat of  nuclear weapons  falling into the hands of terrorists  was also mentioned.  For  a few minutes it appeared that there is no definite answer to the question whether possession of nuclear weapons will ensure peace or  create tension  leading to war.  However the screening of the short BBC video on dropping of the atomic bomb, following  the ‘Thought for the Day’  gave a  very strong message...it is  ‘PEACE  not  WAR’...that humanity needs now!
