Greg Mitchell: U.S. Sends Envoy to Hiroshima for First Time -- But Use of Bomb, Then and Now, Still Defended

2010-08-06-capt.cf0d2d0664164fa8a5a125e24af965f4cf0d2d0664164fa8a5a125e24af965f40.jpg

Greg Mitchell: The fact that the United States first developed, and then used -- twice -- the WMD to end all WMDs has severely compromised our arguments against others building the weapon ever since. Hiroshima was our original sin, and we are still paying for it, even if most Americans do not recognize this. That is why I always urge everyone to study the history surrounding the decision to use the bomb and how the full story was covered up for decades. In the minds of the American media and public, there is no taboo on using nuclear weapons, and it all started, but did not end, with Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Click here to read more.


Wyclef Jean: Open Letter: Why I Decided to Run for President of Haiti

Steve Clemons: An Internationalism Republicans and Democrats Can Agree On

Believe it or not, there actually are Democrats and Republicans -- lots of them -- committed to robust international engagement, smart foreign aid, and coherent and sensible U.S. international public diplomacy.

Edgar M. Bronfman: The Jewish State and the Jewish Diaspora

Even as American Jewry extends its political support to Israel, we should never stop questioning how we can make a "better Israel" a reality.

Dennis A. Henigan: Obama Gun Policy: Fear and Fallacy

There is no question that we need to devote far more resources to enforcing federal gun laws. But it is a transparent fallacy to argue that deficiencies in enforcing current laws justify inaction to strengthen those laws.
