You are uninformed.Put yourselves in their shoes. You have a secret weapon that can completely end the war against brutal people that have killed millions. They suicide bomb your ships, they torture captives, they kill innocents and soldiers alike, and THEY STARTED IT. You either risk millions of American casualties invading the mainland of Japan, all the while causing mass civilian casualties and bombing their cities because that was the norm for WW2; or you drop a bomb showing your superiority to end the war in one swift move. Oh wait, they are absolutely hell bent on killing as many Americans as they can before they're defeated so they still don't surrender after one bomb. So you drop 2. War over, we learn how bad nukes are, and Japan goes on to become one of the wealthiest and most important countries in the world.Bullshit.You are not in a war that's cost millions of lives. You have no idea what conditions were like then. Like I said, it's easy to be self-righteous from your comfy computer chair 70 years later.Again....since everybody is doing it, we can too.That didn't stop ANYBODY in WW2. Every single country involved targeted civilians. It's easy to be self-righteous from your comfy computer chair 70 years later when your side's casualty count isn't currently in the millions.
You can't justify mass murder of innocents, so you resort to strawman tactics.
By your "logic"...since one is not alive at the time, one can't analyze and make conclusions on the actions taken by our leaders. Could you get more silly?
The war was over long before the a-bombs dropped.
Truman dropped them because he was a racist and he wanted to impress the mass murderer Stalin.
You should stop reading the lies on the internet and go to a library near you and read real history books about this subject.
You are making a fool of yourself.
