    I admire the hibakusha for speaking out about this. Many of them have had difficult lives, but they are still acting as society’s conscience.

        That’s the nature of war, yes. Of course, there’s no comparison between engaging in combat with the expectation that people on both sides will die and using a weapon that the user would be in range of the fallout from.
