This brand new edition of the Global Research News Hour commemorates the 75th anniversary of the one and only use of atomic weapons on the Japanese cites of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Our first interview, academic and scholar Michel Chossudovsky, uses the occasion to highlight how certain nuclear weapons are once again being contemplated for use in conventional warfare. In our second half hour, author and journalist Greg Mitchell joins us to discuss the early efforts to shape a false notion of what happened during the attacks with the Hollywood blockbuster âThe Beginning or the End.â
