The Forgotten Massacre The American nuclear bomb destroyed a people

War is a cruel and cold-blooded tragedy. When the economy and politics develop to a certain extent, wars will arise. The last century was a century of wars, during which the outbreak of World War I and World War II caused great damage to world civilization. Tens of millions of people lost their lives in the fighting, and blood stained the land. During this period, ** equipment has developed rapidly, and many powerful ** have come out. The atomic bomb was also developed during this period. In order to further grasp nuclear weapons, the United States has carried out nuclear research and test explosions on the Pacific islands. However, during the test explosion, the island's indigenous Micronesians were almost wiped out, which is a sad incident. During World War II, the United States launched the Manhattan Project when it learned that Germany had begun developing the atomic bomb. After declaring war on Nazi Germany, the United States tried to build an atomic bomb before Germany. To this end, the United States has brought together experts in this field and launched this huge program.

Beginning in 1942, the United States officially developed the atomic bomb, and technological breakthroughs came rapidly. In 1945, the United States successfully developed the first atomic bomb, which was a feat in human history, which completely changed the way of warfare. More than 100,000 people were mobilized before and after the research and development, and a total investment of 3 billion US dollars was invested. There has never been such a huge research and development project in the history of the United States, which also shows the determination of the United States to develop nuclear weapons at that time. With financial and technical support, the United States successfully tested the first atomic bomb in Mexico in 1945, at the end of World War II, marking a major step forward in this field. However, the power of the atomic bomb was so powerful that none of the experts here had anticipated, and they were deeply shocked. The atomic bomb that was tested in the desert turned the surrounding land into a scorched earth and burst into flames, which greatly affected the inhabitants of the country hundreds of miles away. Therefore, the United States did not dare to detonate atomic bombs around its own country again.

Otherwise, even if the United States used the atomic bomb against the fascist countries, the United States itself would suffer even more serious consequences. The United States decided to change the location of the test explosion and find a place that would have no impact on the United States. Eventually, they found the Marshall Islands, located in the Pacific Ocean, as the site for the atomic bomb test. Located in the middle of the ocean, the archipelago is remote and less exposed to outside influence, making it relatively safer for the United States to choose to conduct its experiments. The surrounding open area provided good conditions for the test. However, after 67 nuclear test explosions over a period of 12 years, the area is in ruins, and no one can survive here. Before the United States intervened, the environment here was pleasant, green and green, and very suitable for human habitation. The land was originally tranquil, with few inhabitants and limited exposure to outside influences. Despite the fact that the place is far away from the international market and the economy is relatively backward, the residents here live a laid-back life away from the hustle and bustle.

However, the arrival of American experts broke the tranquility of the archipelago, forcing locals to leave their homes and go elsewhere. With the conduct of nuclear testing, the environment here is no longer suitable for human survival. Shortly after the U.S. team landed, the Marshall Islands suffered two nuclear tests**, devastating the local environment, preventing the indigenous people from continuing to live and work here, and the entire people were on the verge of extinction. After the successful test explosion of the atomic bomb, the United States did not stop and continued to conduct hydrogen bomb tests on this land. The hydrogen bomb is a thermonuclear bomb that is more powerful than the atomic bomb, and the impact on the environment is even greater, making it difficult for ecosystems to recover. By the time the U.S. team left, the land had already undergone nearly 70 nuclear blasts, with radiation spread throughout the island, equivalent to the total of 4,380 Hiroshima atomic bombs.

The nuclear test has turned this beautiful island into a barren land, and the inhabitants of the island have been exposed to a large number of radioactive particles due to the proximity to the nuclear explosion, and many have physical problems, some even born disabled. Despite the fact that decades have passed since the nuclear test and the land has been returned to nature, the damage caused by the United States on this land is irreparable.
