Book Description:
"Atomic Tragedy offers a unique perspective on one of the most important events of the twentieth century. As secretary of war during World War II, Henry L. Stimson (1867-1950) oversaw the American nuclear weapons program. In a book about how an experienced, principled man faltered when confronted by the tremendous challenge posed by the intersection of war, diplomacy, and technology, Sean L. Malloy examines Stimson's struggle to reconcile his responsibility for "the most terrible weapon ever known in human history" with his long-standing convictions about war and morality."
Here's some more food for thought, "Bomb Scare":
When is a non-patriotic, American film going to be made about this? Or is it possible to make an "American" film about this tragedy?
Not that Germany or Japan wouldn't have stooped this low...for the sake of "winning-by-any-means necessary," and fueled by racism and nationalism (otherwise known as "patriotism"). For similliar logic of end-justifies-the-the-means, look no farther than the Republican strategy of swift-boating. Isn't "swift-boating" another way of saying "Nuclear Option"? Here's a taste of what's to come:
