The victims of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 6, 1945 and Gaza in 2023 and 2024 were civilian population while the criminals and killers were the same students of the American and Western schools of terrorism, capitalism, imperialism, colonialism, racism, and aggression.

There is no difference here between America's atomic bombs and the bombs of destruction and annihilation that "Israel" drops on the people of Gaza which are smart American bombs that have many similarities and bloodiness to those found in successive American administrations which are united by the characteristic that they are inhumane administrations.

In Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, the population was exterminated and in Gaza they have been doing the same thing for ten months. Yes, and we do not exaggerate when we mention that the size of the destructive force and the number of bombs that fell on Gaza and as a reminder and so that we never forget, "Israeli" American, German, British, French and Western bombs in general.

Their size exceeds what fell on Gaza since October 2023 until today. It is larger in size than what fell on the two Japanese cities. We do not know exactly the number of victims in Gaza and it is increasing daily by the hundreds but what is known so far is about forty thousand murdered. While global estimates indicate that the number will exceed hundreds of thousands between dead, wounded, missing, and detainees in the occupation prisons.

According to July 31, 2024 report by 12 KRDV.Com, "Israel" is not invited to ceremony commemorating the 1945 atomic bombing of Nagasaki where officials from 115 countries are expected to attend the ceremony in Japan. Japanese peace activists have demanded the exclusion of "Israel" from the event due to the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza.

Activists further argued that Japan was displaying double standards by inviting Israel while excluding Russia which invaded Ukraine in early 2022. The city of Nagasaki did well by excluding Israel and not inviting it to participate in the nuclear bomb commemoration. This means that the Japanese at least know the extent of crimes and massacres "Israel" is committing in Gaza and occupied Palestine.
