Growing up in Hiroshima, I must say that I’ve hardly met anyone who hates Americans. I personally think there are 2 possible reasons why.
1. Because they are aware that Japan is responsible for the start of World War II
2. Because they don’t hate any country, but want peace
Hiroshima citizens are aware of the political situation at the time of the a-bomb, and they are also aware of the crimes and wrongdoings of Japan.
And because we believe that in order to prevent the tragic incident of the A-bombing from ever being repeated, it is important to convey to the world the importance of peace, not hatred.
