Issey Miyake

Issey Miyake is a well-known, Japanese designer. Recently, he has posted an article about his tragic experience on the atomic bomb explosion and has called for Obama's visiting in Hiroshima.

Recent news says that president Obama is seeking to create peaceful world without nuclear weapons. If he want to progress this difficult problem, America cannot help avoiding to face the fact, I think. It means that America is an only country that used atomic bombs as weapon and Japan is an only country where many people were killed by the first atomic bomb.

Visiting to Hiroshima by American president might have happen in near future.

Personally, I doubt that we'll ever truly see a world without nukes. Hopefully they won't be used in warfare, especially against civilians, but I can't see these nations honestly disarming themselves.

Jon-san,

I always think that human beings have to become wiser than past people by learning terrible history. Nuclear deterrent is a really stupid idea, I think.
