Water from Nagasaki

Water from Nagasaki

In a more than symbolic act, water from the Urakami River, Nagasaki, was poured at the main entrance to the nuclear base in Faslane on Christmas Day 2006.

We remember:
"At the time of the Nagasaki bombing in 1945, between 15,000 and 16,000 Catholics - the majority of the approximately 20,000 people of that faith in Nagasaki and about half of the local population - lived in the Urakami district. It is said that about 10,000 Catholics were killed by the atomic bomb." (Source).

This banner was painted this year by children in Nagasaki. It was given to help working on disarmament - especially on nuclear weapons.
