Asking me to watch it is an unwarranted presumption on your part that I don't already know the history of nuclear weapons and the state (both political and technical) of the nuclear arsenal today. I do. It would be a waste of my time to watch a vid that tells me what I'm aware of.
For the record, my 'ancestors' had nothing to do with the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, nor with the development of nuclear weapons (even if they had, so what? I will not be held responsible for the heinous actions of other people).
Could you please provide information about the US use of nuclear weapons in Iraq?

My ancestors are also responssible; even my parents are if they supported nationalism. Your ancestors and my ancestors were partly responsible if they supported bowing to flags and worshiping colors on cloths; that led to unexplained tension and never ending hate.
If the world wasn't cut like a cake between different tribes, countries and communities, things wouldn't have reached this dark, grim reality. I'm blaming all nationalists, even my own parents, my own family, my own friends, anybody who agreed to be led by empty dreams of glory. A glory humans shouldn't get; and never suits them.
The U.S used "Silver Bullets" in the Iraq war; which is a radioactive weapon developed from nuclear waste, and used by American forces in the Iraq War:

The use of radioactive weapons like that, caused mutations and moralities between Iraqi children, and moreover it's a very low thing to use atomic waste as ammo to escape the hammer of accusations of "anti human rights acts".
ATLASS we get it and we are glad we have our pet "terrorist" who makes neat Muslim versions of McGyver gadgets agreeing with us. <-----NOTE TO ALL READERS, this is SARCASM, dark humor.
Nobody is going to disagree, or should I say, should disagree that the East and Islam, Sunni and Shiite are stuck further in the past than the rest of the world as far as theocratic thought.
But even in the more open pluralistic west even we have our problems and we have our nuts bent on religious based holy book based bat shittery. <----That part is serious, not sarcastic.
China, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Iran, and America, including all other nations, not enough humans want to understand we are not a separate species. Our respective powers are all part of the same global market and unfortunately ideology sells , fear sells and war sells. It is up to the sane to constantly point this out and combat this.
I don't blame human ancestors worldwide for not knowing better. You are not responsible for what your ancestors did 1400 years ago, anymore than I am responsible for what my ancestors did 1900 years ago. Nor are today's Chinese responsible for what Chairman Mo did.
But I do agree that if an individual who values non violence and compassion, it is certainly up to all worldwide whom value that, to remember the past and demand we avoid the horrors of the past.
