Military leaders were the ones who had the bombs dropped, genius.Not according to our military leaders
You're a disgrace.Again dumb FUCK those that agreed had no reason to make a statement.
Which ones? Name themMilitary leaders were the ones who had the bombs dropped, genius.
How about the CIC? lol. But I guess a non-vet like yourself wouldn't think of that.Which ones? Name them
Thats new. I thought Truman gave the order to drop the two bombs. Do you have any proof to back your assertion that military leaders gave the order?Military leaders were the ones who had the bombs dropped, genius.
How about him?How about the CIC? lol.
LOL. Cat got your tongue?How about him?
Is that another gay reference? LolLOL. Cat got your tongue?
I do agree with that.I'm glad you agree the bombs were horrific.
You have presented opinions from someIt is your opinion that the bombs were necessary for surrender
I have presented expert opinion from the people who knew the situation best in japan at the time
I will go with their opinion
Well they were the BEST experts available.You have presented opinions from some
experts at the time
none whom can say what would have happened without the bomb
I have tried to fill in that question for you and its not a pretty picture
You gay guys just make stuff upHad Republicans dropped the bomb, every Aug 6 and 9, we'd have worldwide demonstrations and protests, people wearing skeleton suits, etc. But since it was a Democrat, not a peep is said.
I do value their opinionWell they were the BEST experts available.
I hold their opinion in high regard
You do not
I think waiting 3 days for the Russian invasion is not too much to askI do value their opinion
But not so much as to ignore all the other factors surrounding that decision
such as suspending 1 million in limbo while hirohito makes up his mind
or opening the door for a joint occupation with the Soviets of japan
plus the total loss of korea
and thats assuming an invasion was not needed as lemay thought at the tome
The wait could have been weeks or monthsI think waiting 3 days for the Russian invasion is not too much to ask
But truman did not want a quick surrender....he had a message for Russia first
Or it could have been 3 days. Japan surrendered as soon as it found out about the Russian invasionThe wait could have been weeks or months
the generals running japan were unwilling to surrender
Why should the russian invasion of manchuria impress the japanese?Or it could have been 3 days. Japan surrendered as soon as it found out about the Russian invasion
Why not just wait those three days?
And yet they surrendered right after the Russian invasion.Why should the russian invasion of manchuria impress the japanese?
the Code of Bushido still applied
