I highly respect Mining Awareness. I appreciate the hard work.
America is an auroritarian military and nuclear state. They do not even pretend to have democracy, in america anymore. The controlled-opposition democrats and their Chickenshit-evil leaders, refuse to impeach this monster. This monster and criminal is setting America toward certain nuclear catastrophe, more war, probable nuclear war the the worst possible nuclear contamination of america. That is, as if it could be any worse.

The criminal is taking massive kickbacks to nuclearize a brutal, mideast regime. A murderous brutal regime, that would use nukes and has no need for nuclear reactors.
The right wing, neoliberal-imperial democrats, pelosi and schumer are spouting the worst propaganda lies against
china. They are cranking it up with Pompeo and Bolton. Beating the drums loudly . They saber ratting against china for war.
China is sn ally of iran and venezuela. Pelosi and Bolton are doing exactly the same thing they did with Bush2. They enabled Bush2 to genocide afghanistan and iraq. The chickenshit democrats, refused to impeach Bush2 and he destroyed the american economy. Bus 2 instituted the patriot act . He set the stage for obama and trump. They are doing the same thing with this monster. No democracy in america.

- Possibly Nancy Pelosi has a longer term strategy aimed at gaoling Trump – a better result than impeachment?

How the viewing public was ‘protected’ from seeing what the Hiroshima and Nagasaki nuclear bombing did to people

Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the cutting room floor https://thebulletin.org/2019/08/hiroshima-and-nagasaki-on-the-cutting-room-floor/ By Thomas Gaulkin, August 5, 2019 Seventy-four years after nuclear weapons were first and last used in war, it can be challenging to conceive of the devastation they cause. But even in the immediate months after the atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, news accounts offered a view of ingenuity and destruction that often elided the human cost.

The newsreels below [on original] were mainly screened to audiences in 1946 and 1947 and detail the destructive force of the explosions almost entirely through excited accounts of the structural damage to the cities. There’s occasional mention of the lost city populations and the scientific knowledge to be gained from studying their casualties, but hardly any description of what people actually suffered, let alone personal accounts. It’s instructive to look at and listen to these reports today, and contemplate what is missing.

The 12-minute reel below was produced by the US War Department in 1946. “Tale of Two Cities” makes selective use of film that was confiscated from a Japanese filmmaker, Akira Iwasaki—though you wouldn’t know that from the narration, which boasts that “army cameramen have found and filmed pictorial evidence that tells in twisted steel and stone the effect of death-dealing atomic power.” (Some twenty years later, historian Eric Barnouw obtained more of Iwasaki’s footage and produced a remarkably different narrative that documented the horrible physical impact of the attacks on Hiroshima’s citizens.)

Contrasted with the triumphant tone of the news/propaganda made for 1940s audiences, silence changes everything. Made public only decades later, the two films below —one beginning with footage of wounded victims, the other, a full-color glimpse of survivors picking up the pieces of the ruined city—report what those above do not, without a single word.
