cuba posted in america caribbean cia cuba documentary imperialism usa video war leave a comment barefoot gen hiroshima bombing posted by dave on april 4 2008 hiroshima and nagasaki surely among the most unspeakable crimes in history noam chomsky the hiroshima bombing came at a time when the japanese were negotiating peace with the usa the united states however wanted to test its new weapon demonstrating its power to the world especially to the soviets when gore vidal was asked if he thought the atomic bombing was the end of the second world war or the beginning of the cold war he chose the later i visited hiroshima in 2004 and entered the peace park museum without giving it much thought put in quotes because i think the american post war government had a propaganda campaign promoting peace in japan worried that people might want revenge perhaps i was a little ignorant because i was in for a gut wrenching stomach churning experience one of the exhibits that i remember vividly was something quite odd i was looking at it in its glass case and couldn t quite focus on what it was rather unusual so i looked at the little plaque beside it which had a story it said that there was a young girl 8 years old i think that had been caught in the bomb blast her first instinct was to run home even although she was covered in burns when she made it to her mothers arms much of her skin had peeled off and there she died i can t imagine how the little girl or her mother felt i can only guess but to help convey the full horror to her partner the woman collected the little girls fingers that had melted off to keep and show him when he returned reading the story i was quite moved hesitantly i looked back and could see that indeed they were fingers with recognisable nails on top of everything else i d seen i almost threw up leaving the museum also hit me hard walking onto a busy street i realised it was people just like these that suffered so terribly the following film is based on the work of a manga artist in japan keiji nakazawa a 6 year old survivor of the bombing i think the film made in the 80 s reflects the true horror of the atomic bombings and the true horror of war all through a childs eyes and loosely based on nakazawa s own experiences an interview with keiji can be seen here 15 mins into the show read the rest of this entry posted in nuclear war

video war war on terror leave a comment the true cost of war posted by dave the void on march 19 2008 people say that there are two issues in this year s elections the war and the economy but in many ways that s just one issue joseph stiglitz talking at the london school of economics last month paraphrased from memory wars are always expensive affairs but the occupation of iraq has taken that to new levels private armies of civilian contractors and cost plus reconstruction firms have notoriously pushed up the price but caring for wounded veterans also takes its toll on the economy as does the increase in the price of oil however few of these costs made themselves felt in the first four and a half years of war the federal reserve has created a bubble of debt allowing half a trillion to be spent on the military never mind all the hidden costs without any associated tax increase that bubble is now bursting or so argues the nobel prize winning economist and notorious world bank whistleblower joseph stiglitz in this address to colombia university click here to watch the video of the addres as well as an introduction q a and response click here for a paper pdf in which

disintegration of the former yugoslavia i bring you a 2006 interview 36 mins with noam chomsky on serbian tv as it becomes less and less possible to hold up the invasion of afghanistan as the good war
