Today on the program John LaForge of NukeWatchInfo.org joins us to discuss his recent article, “Censorship and Myth-Making Enshrined Ignorance of Hiroshima and the Bomb.” We talk about how the Hiroshima myth was created in the wake of the atomic bombing, why the Nagasaki bombing was even more unnecessary, and the artificial distinction that is made between nuclear weapons and nuclear energy in the anti-nuclear debate.
