HIROSHIMA — A mock tribunal organized by lawyers and civic groups found on Sunday former U.S. President Harry Truman and former U.S. military officials guilty of committing crimes against humanity and violating international law by dropping atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 in World War II.
Wrapping up the two-day tribunal at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum building, three law experts from the United States, Costa Rica and Japan posing as judges recommended that the United States apologize to atomic-bomb survivors, pay damages to them and promise never to use nuclear weapons again.
Lennox Hinds, a U.S. professor specializing in international law who acted as a judge, said the bombings were the act of “an indiscriminate extermination of all forms of life” and that the targeted cities were like “guinea pigs” used in experiments to measure the impact of an atomic bombing.
