Strategic Council Online – Note: The alarm for the World War II was officially sounded with the German invasion of Poland, on September 1, 1939, and left a black record behind by leaving 50 million dead, millions disabled and 30 million migrated. One of the significant incidents of the war was the US atomic bombing of Hiroshima (August 6, 1945) to force the Japanese government to surrender. The city of Nagasaki was also bombed on August 9, 1945. Shortly afterwards, the then Emperor of Japan announced in a speech that he had made unconditional peace with the Allies in order to protect the people of his country and thereby stop the greatest crime against humanity.
