The Nuking of Nagasaki: Even More Immoral and Unnecessary than Hiroshima

[LuckyDuck]

The initial plans were for military targets, however, as bombing in those days was strictly by sight only, and the weather wasn't cooperating, they had alternate designated targets if they couldn't hit the military ones. The only thing I agree with, is that the US should have waited a bit longer to see if the Japanese would surrender. Some of the Japanese generals wanted to keep fighting to the end, which would have cost thousands more American lives, had they not surrendered.

You have yet to post a single Government source for the claim that Japan made numerous offers to surrender, all you have are books written years later with no actual paper trail.

That’s because the indisputable, undeniable facts are that Japan refused to surrender, even after the first nuclear bomb.

Dumbass ^^^^ can't even be bothered to read the thread.

Here are indisputable facts for mikegriffith1, Unkotare, gipper, and the rest of you ignorant assholes:

“This second demonstration of the power of the atomic bomb apparently threw Tokyo into a panic, for the next morning brought the first indication that the Japanese Empire was ready to surrender,” Truman later wrote in his memoirs. On August 15, Emperor Hirohito announced Japan’s unconditional surrender, bringing World War II to a close.

Japan had 0 indications of surrender before Nagasaki. Zero. Now shut the fuck up, you crying lying little propagandists.

The explicit reason was to swiftly end the war with Japan. But it was also intended to send a message to the Soviets.

WRONG.

Why would you call General McArthur, a true America hero, a liar? Are you a commie traitor?

Nuking Japan was poorly thought out and not really "necessary" (as if incinerating mere citizens ever could be). Many other ways to have handled the situation existed.
One would have been to just go to the source of the problems and bomb Moscow, for example, if it were well and truly the intention to demonstrate power and determination.

It’s ironic that Dirty Harry Truman, may he be burning in Hell for eternity, mass murdered all those defenseless Japanese women and children to impress Uncle Joe...when we know that Uncle Joe knew all about the bomb, before Dirty Harry knew.

With FDR’s administration full of Stalinist spies, Uncle Joe had no fear. He knew he would get all the details of the bomb in short order, and he did.

So, Dirty Harry’s war crime was committed to impress Uncle Joe, but didn’t.

/——/ Japan was arming women and children with broom sticks. They were prepared for a fight to the death.

Do you really think this justifies the bombings?

Has it ever occurred to you statists that we didn’t need to occupy Japan? Accept their surrender and go home. Before Truman’s war crime, Japan was a destroyed nation with no military. It posed no threat to us or anyone else.

700000 troops in China say differently.

The Japs did it to themselves.

They did it on Okinawa. By that time it was pretty much certain that the Allies were going to prevail however, the stupid Japs fought to almost the last man inflicting heavy ground losses on the Americans including Kamikaze attacks.

The Americans rightfully said "fuck this shit, lets nuke the bastards".

The Japs should have withdrew from Okinawa and attempted to negotiate a conditional surrender.

Japanese hard headiness is what caused those cities to be nuked.

It’s sad that so many Americans are duped by the state, as you have been.

Tell me what is revisionist about the lessons that we Americans learned from that Okinawa bloodbath.

What we learned is that the stupid Japs were going to extract a horrendous price for bringing the end to the war.

The lesson should be never invade another country, but this is lost on statists.

You think a nation invaded by the Empire, shouldn’t fight. If the Empire was invaded, would you fight?

LOL Now suddenly the board loon claims Japan did not invade anyone. Or start a war with the US and Invade the Philippines.

You are the one making moronic claims with NO evidence to back them up.
