I cannot conceive that the man who dropped the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a machine. He also had a heart, just like you. He also had his wife and children, his old mother and father. He was as much a human being as you are–with a difference. He was trained to follow orders without questioning, and when the order was given, he simply followed it. Osho
About This Quote

The man who dropped the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not a machine. He was just like you and me. He has his family, his sons and daughters, his mother and father, his wife and friends. Like most of us, he was just doing his job.
