August 6 is Hiroshima day. Here is a chilling Guardian interview between Studs Terkel and Paul Tibbets who piloted the Enola Gay. Tibbets has this to say about the possibility of using nuclear weapons against terrorists today.

PT: Oh, I wouldn't hesitate if I had the choice. I'd wipe 'em out. You're gonna kill innocent people at the same time, but we've never fought a damn war anywhere in the world where they didn't kill innocent people. If the newspapers would just cut out the shit: "You've killed so many civilians." That's their tough luck for being there.
