A Boeing B-29 Superfortress bomber named “Enola Gay” was the bomber that dropped the “Little Boy” (nuclear bomb) over Hiroshima, Japan during World War 2. It was the first aircraft to drop an atomic bomb as a weapon of war.

Rocktation: Burning Monk – The Self-Immolation [1963]

June 11, 1963, Thich Quang Duc, a Buddhist monk from Vietnam, burned himself to death at a busy intersection in downtown Saigon to bring attention to the repressive policies of the Catholic Diem regime that controlled the South Vietnamese government at the time. Buddhist monks asked the regime to lift its ban on flying the traditional Buddhist flag, to grant Buddhism the same rights as Catholicism, to stop detaining Buddhists and to give Buddhist monks and nuns the right to practice and spread their religion.

While burning Thich Quang Duc never moved a muscle.

Na wa o for the camera man,... you see person dey burn instead of assisting to stop the fire, you are taking pictures

I love this enchanting thread. I'll contribute the famous National Geographic Afghan Girl. Her gaze. Her anxieties. Her anger. Her beauty. The colours. It's effortless to see into her future as an Afghan woman. I love the photo.

some say he was a deist, some say he was an atheist, but one thing is for sure he was born by roman catholic parents, and even worked in the catholic church then.....and even during the holocaust the roman catholic church did not even speak a word against his administration.....he somehow felt he was doing the work of 'God' by getting rid of jews...

Rocktation: Death by Protocol

In 19th century Siam, it was absolutely forbidden for a commoner to touch the queen. To break this rule carried the death penalty. One day Queen Sunandha Kumariratana was in a boat which capsized, plunging her into a river. Though there were many people who might have come to her aid it would have meant their own death to touch the royal body. She died at the age of 19 along with her daughter.
stupid law, deadly consequence.

The Japanese city of Hiroshima (also called Hiroshima-shi), after the devastating nuclear bombing from the United States on August 6th, 1945. Observe the ruins produced by a SINGLE nuclear bomb over 67 years ago, I wonder the TNT capability of today's nuclear weapon though. Nagasaki, its industrial counterpart was bombed 3 days after...
