Two days ago Theodore Van Kirk, the last crew member of the Enola Gay died:
The last surviving member of the U.S. crew that dropped an atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima, hastening the end of Second World War and moving the world into the atomic age, has died.
Theodore Van Kirk died Monday of natural causes at the retirement home where he lived in Georgia, his son Tom Van Kirk said. He was 93.
One day ago, the country on whose behalf the Enola Gay dropped the atomic bomb that deliberately targeted and killed 140,000 civilian men women and children in Hiroshima, condemned Israel for accidentally killing 15 civilian men women and children in Gaza:
The United States is condemning Israel’s shelling of a U.N. school in the Gaza Strip that was sheltering displaced Palestinians.
It’s the sharpest criticism the U.S. has levelled at Israel over the more than three weeks of fighting between Israel and Hamas militants in Gaza.
