In 1945, the world witnessed the release of the first atomic bomb which ushered in the era and proliferation of nuclear weapons on earth.

These weapons were first developed by scientists during world War 2 (WWII). This atomic weapon has only been used twice in the history of warfare and the United States happen to be the first country to use an atomic bomb on another country.

On December 28, 1942, President Franklin D. Roosevelt authorized the formation of the Manhattan project which was the code name for the development of atomic weapon in the WWII.

On July 16, 1945 a theoretical physicist named J. Robert Oppenheimer,known as the “father of the atomic bomb.”, directed the first testing of the bomb called Trinity Test which was developed in New Mexico and tested in a remote desert location near Alamogordo, New Mexico.

Two Atomic Bomb were successfully made the first called "Little Boy" designed with uranium while the second called "The Fat Man" made of plutonium.


The United States on August 6, 1945, by 8:15 a.m, dropped its first atomic bomb from a B-29 bomber plane in the city of Hiroshima, Japan. The “Little Boy” exploded killing 80,000 people instantly. It's recorded that Tens of thousands still died after its initial explosion because of its radiation.

The second one was dropped in Nagasaki when Japan refused to surrender. "The Fat Man" killed an estimation of 40,000 people on impact.

It wasn't easy for Japan as the u.s were already planning to drop another atomic bomb in Tokyo. This plan was halted with the surrender of Japan on the 15th of August 1945 and formally signed that same year on the 2nd of September.

In Hiroshima, 70% of the buildings were wiped out, there was increased rates of cancer and chronic disease among the survivors an estimate of 140,000 deaths by the end of 1945.

While in Nagasaki,an estimate number of 74,000 people were reported dead by the end of the year coupled with the down pour of a radioactive rain.

It is also recorded that the impact of the bomb was so much that even after all, those who came to refer assistance died from the radiation.

It's still said that the radiation in Japan has affected the country till date. How would it have been if the 3rd bomb was released?

Atomic bombs are deadly weapons of war fare that should be discouraged amongst countries.

However the supper powers seem to building on this technology on a daily basis and by now, they have more deadly weapons that can wipe out a whole country in an impact.

It gets even more terrifying than that. The largest nuclear weapon ever detonated, the Tsar Bomba, set off by the Soviet Union in 1961, produced an insane 50-megaton blast—about 3,333 times more powerful than the Little Boy bomb that leveled an entire city. The Tsar Bomba is the largest.


There bombs in the world today that could yield over 100MT . Imagine the proportion of the destruction such demon could cause!

Now, nuclear don take over.

Lol, a demon indeed, invented by the same country which now tries to stop other countries from developing it while keeping theirs intact.

Who are behind the making of the bombs? The Jew scientist, this is part of Jewish conspiracy.

After the Hiroshima/Nagasaki atomic bombing of 1945, the Geneva convention of 1949 placed a ban on the use of Weapons with such destructive capabilities during warfare, in 1962 these terms was almost violated by the USA and USSR during the Cuba missile crises, when nukes where planted in strategic locations in a quest to demonstrate weapon superiority.

The Geneva convention would have placed a ban on the production of such weapons rather than placing a ban on its usage, they should place a total ban that would compel and even prevent the most powerful nations from producing it.

Alien technology.

It's too late, nuclear weapons are here to stay. America has so much soft power and conventional military power that nuclear weapons in the possession of other countries counteracts, doesn’t neutralize but severely levels the field. In other words, America's strength would be even more overwhelming in a non-nuclear world because it couldn’t be threatened by nukes

North Korea sees nuclear weapons as the only weapon that can deter America and other agressors or bullies giving it up would be suicidal. In a world where America flexes its muscle and bully weaker nations nuclear weapons would always create a balance.

If America behaves responsibly some countries won't see nuclear weapons as weapons that guarantee their survival. But America has turned the international stage into a blood spot and some countries won't risk their destruction by leaving themselves defensless.

Including the US right?

US cannot disarm, in fact no nuclear power would want to do that. Obama made a speech in Prague on April 5, 2009 that he wanted to see a world without nuclear weapons and that if it didn't happen in his lifetime the time to start was now. He said the same thing in July that year in London when he met Russian president Dmitri Medvedev. In Sept 23 that year he addressed the same nuclear disarmament topic to the U.N General Assembly.

On October 9 he was awarded a nobel peace prize. During his 8 years as president he committed trillions into the modernisation of America's nuclear arsenal building high tech nukes

Nuclear disarmament is an elusive topic among arms control and proliferation experts. How do we achieve that? Even if great powers like U.S, Russia and China are ready to disarm what about North Korea who sees nukes as detterrent. What about Israel, India, Pakistan. Will these lesser nuclear powers be willing to disarm?

Even if they are willing how do we set up a body that monitors and inspect these countries from building them in secret cause Syria once tried that. Nuclear disarmament is a big and very elusive topic.

Lol, good one.

The point being that no country will be willing to disarm or ban the development of nuclear weapons when countries like the US are still keeping their cache intact.

It won't happen, hence my question to that other guy.

if the rest of the world takes a stand for the US to denuclearize and stop producing these weapons then its possible. The US are the only country known to have used these weapons against humanity and still went ahead to wronfully accused and invade an innocent nation for being in a possession of such weapons.

I watched how the US ravaged Iraq, exploited their resources and left that country in ruins while bitter tears pour down from the eyes of its citezens and the world did nothing. The US are only using the nukes to intimidate weaker nation and feel threatened when they see these weapons with other Nations.

I was actually expecting the US to lunched an all out invasion to disarmed North korea for having and displaying nukes, but their refusal to move their forces there convinced me more of how much more of a coward they really are.

I don't seems to understand the rationale behind this. You have but you are banning me from having. Are you mad ?

North Korea, Russia, and Iran are not a walk in the park unlike a country like South Africa that willingly dismantled their nuclear arsenal at the behest of the US.

NK for instance has rockets that can reach Hawaii and they are developing others that will be able to reach mainland US, so the US is very careful not to get into any open confrontation with them.

To be honest, the idea of countries having nuclear weapons is unsettling but I like that some of these nations are able to stand up to the US and not cower into disarming their weapons while big brother continues keeping theirs. There's absolutely no sense in it.

They are scared, lol. They try to control the nuclear program of nations they know are not loyal to them.

The UK has at least 200 nuclear warheads but they don't disturb them.

In 1961, the USSR leveled and entire city with over 50MT nuke. Making it the most destructive nuke ever used in humanity.

I would prefer nuke in the hand of US, Russia, UK than in the hand of China, Iran, NK though.

US is the most dangerous and devilish of all those countries you have mentioned. Do you know why? America is the only country that operates a first use nuclear doctrine/policy in other words, America reserves the right to use nukes during war time even in a conventional war, isn't that scary?

During the Korean war there was pressure on Harry S.Truman to use nuclear weapons on China and NK, General Douglas MacArthur a military commander mounted a heavy pressure on Washington but Harry Truman refused, he even retired the General so as to save America from a nuclear catastrophe.

During the Cuban missile crisis General Curtis Lemay placed an option of attacking Russia and Cuba with nukes. He exerted a maximum pressure on president JF Kennedy but the president would always ask a question.

"If Russia retaliates after we have attacked how many would die in America"
His war hawks would reply thousands but they would assure him that America would win a nuclear war with the USSR. The president would reply them "And you call that victory after thousands have died in the U.S? " He refused and opted for a naval blockade of Cuba. Just imagine what would happen if Trump was the one in charge at the time.

During the Vietnam war too, that was how some war hawks were advising President Lyndon B. Johnson and Richard Nixon to use nukes on Vietnam.

China, NK that you mentioned possess them for detterence sake., even Iran would have nukes for deterrence sake. Though every nuclear armed country is dangerous because human beings are unpredictable, if Adolf Hitler had nukes he would have used them in order to carry out his conquest with ease. America's nuclear posture is very dangerous.
