Story of Japan

World War II was in full swing. The Japanese were fighting so fiercely that suddenly the United States decided to use the atomic bomb for fear of defeat. Some members of the US Congress were shocked to hear this decision.

They strongly opposed it, but in front of the majority they did not move. Of course, humanity must have shouted loudly that day. The US dropped the first atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. During the first minute of the atomic bomb attack, the entire city was engulfed in oxygen and 7,000 people were killed.

In the second minute, many buildings caught fire. In just five minutes, more than 100,000 Japanese were killed. Human corpses were everywhere in the city. Lifeless skulls were visible. The number of burn victims was in the millions.

People were groaning from their wounds. There was no one to help. Atomic radiation had changed the faces of the burn victims. In Hiroshima, the trees, the fields, and the greenery were all burned to the ground. In many places, death engulfed the children in such a way that they sat still. Someone's hand was raised in the air.

Somewhere people became silent while talking but as if their lips stopped saying something, someone's breath went up and down and in the same world death came, it felt as if someone had silenced the atmosphere full of magic. Most of the entire family was wiped out. There was no one to cry over their bodies.

On August 6, 1945, the American ship Enola Gay dropped the first atomic bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. At that time the population of the city was 3.5 million. Immediately 70,000 people were killed. The number doubled for a few days. According to the plan, the attack was carried out on August 1, 1945 but due to bad weather it had to be postponed for a few days.

I learned that they were going to drop an atomic bomb. Three days later, another atomic bomb was to be dropped on a city called Kahuto, but this target was changed due to opposition from the US Department of Defense and the name of Nagasaki was finalized. The bomber struck shortly after noon in front of a U.S. military base.

I went and heard that the third atomic bomb was going to be dropped on Tokyo On hearing this, the Japanese broke their backs and announced their surrender.

The order to drop the atomic bomb was given by US President Harry Truman. The ruined city of Hiroshima has been completely rebuilt, only the Aman Park on the Otapar River is still standing today and a commemorative candle has been lit in it. The effects of the atomic bomb's devastating effects are so deadly that even after more than half a century, disabled children are still being born in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which is a great tragedy for mankind.

Several months after the atomic bomb was dropped, many people were sitting in a large hall in Tokyo. Many were walking anxiously. There were dozens of sketches on the walls. Someone could see a lifeless dove falling to the ground in clouds of smoke. Burnt in a picture, horrible helplessness on the horrible faces of the victims in a sketch. Destroyed halls are sitting outside the hospital and the lifeless bodies of doctors and nurses coming out of the door are lying diagonally.

People were looking at these symbolic pictures with wet eyes. Someone's eyes were swollen with tears. There was a resurrection when the atomic bomb was dropped. It was not hundreds but millions of disabled people to start relief activities for them. At the sound of a certain bell, everyone sat alert. Economists, social leaders, politicians and others were all on the same topic.

How to avenge the great war crime committed by the United States by dropping an atomic bomb on Japan? The young people were very enthusiastic. The families of the dead were very angry. In this regard, different people would come and stand on the dice on the stage, give their suggestions and sit down. Has formed a "Hara Kari" group (many Japanese who are bored with life commit suicide by torturing themselves.

This process is called Hara Kari. Hundreds of people in Japan embrace Hara Kari every year.) We will be allowed to use violence in these countries as a warning sign to the opposing countries. We should be allowed to do so. After many hours of discussion, a Japanese general got up from his seat and shook hands. War and strife Mara Mari?

Hearing this, a young man got up quickly. Get tired ۔ Coward somewhere. The Japanese general said, "Whatever you say, I know. If Japan had not been weak, we would never have lost this war." The United States killed the atom ... The young man answered helplessly, otherwise we could have won.

This is what a thinker shouted, pointing to the pictures on the walls of the hall and saying this is the end of the war. Which is in front of everyone

A voice echoed

"There is another way to take revenge ..." said the intelligent man

What? Many voices came at once ... He said let's make our country so powerful that the whole world needs Japan ...

I think this is the best way to take revenge ... Many voices in support of it.

How is that? Many faces opened up. The intelligent man then said that one day will come.

Staring into space, he said, "The day is not far when the world will be indebted to Japan for its economic development.

Come on! Commit that we will work day and night to build a great, prosperous and powerful Japan. From this day forward." To this day, the hard work of the Japanese has become a byword. They did not even bother to look back. Going further and further, they found the destination that Allama Iqbal had said about.

Beyond the stars, there are others

There are more tests of love now

The Japanese claim that there is no house in the world where there is no made in Japan product. Today, Japan is at the top of the list of standard products. The Japanese sacrificed millions of their compatriots to rebuild a devastated country into a modern country of the world. All developing countries can do the same. There may be a lack of resources. There is no shortage of potential ... Much can be done for development and prosperity. Courageous man, the saying of God's help will come true, get up.
