"Dropping those atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a war crime." ― George Wald Topic(s): War More From George Wald "The concept of war crimes is an American invention." "Science goes from question to question; big questions, and little, tentative answers. The questions as they age grow ever broader, the answers are seen to be more limited." "All War Departments are now Defense Departments. This is all part of the doubletalk of our time. The aggressor is always on the other side." More In War "War kills men, and men deplore the loss; but war also crushes bad principles and tyrants, and so saves societies."― Charles Caleb Colton "I do not believe that the men who served in uniform in Vietnam have been given the credit they deserve. It was a difficult war against an unorthodox enemy."― William Westmoreland "All art is but imitation of nature."― Lucius Annaeus Seneca
