JAPAN-NUCLEAR-POLITICS-WWII
A boy is seen in prayer, as people send off lanterns on the Motoyasu river, beside the Atomic Bomb Dome (unseen), 06 August 2007 to mourn victims of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima in 1945. Japan vowed never to seek atomic weapons and urged nuclear powers to give up their own arsenals 62 years after the world's first nuclear attack on Hiroshima. Some 45,000 people recited silent prayers at 8:15 am, the exact moment in 1945 when a single US bomb instantly killed more than 140,000 people and fatally injured tens of thousands of others with radiation or horrific burns.
