The Specter(@specter_affairs):81 years ago today, the US dropped an atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. Three days later, it did it again over Nagasaki. Together the two bombings killed hundreds of thousands of people. Washington remains the only power in history to have used a nuclear weapon.
