All heinous acts and all war crimes,for which no one has been prosecuted.America bombed the hell out of both Japanese and German cities full of women and children during WW2.
Nothing that terribly remarkable about the A-Bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki except for the fact that they were single bombs instead of waves of bombers which America deployed on other targets.
March 1945: every single male age 15 to 60 and every single female age 17 to 40 was now a combatant. And with no uniforms that made every civilian a legitimate target.There were no women and children in the Japanese Imperial Military. Our military base was attacked by an enemy military. We defeated that military, as we should have. Then we put hundreds of thousands of AMERICAN CITIZENS into fdr CONCENTRATION CAMPS, and finally slaughtered hundreds of thousands of civilians in a defeated nation. America is supposed to be better than that.
Disagree if you are willing to accept that you hate America and are no better than the worst terrorist scumbag.

Absurd. You whackos believe in total war until it comes to your town, then it’s a war crime.March 1945: every single male age 15 to 60 and every single female age 17 to 40 was now a combatant. And with no uniforms that made every civilian a legitimate target.
All liberals lie. So when are you returning to the land you hold so dear that you have wet dreams about it having won World War II?"Back"?
I was born, raised, and have lived most of my life in Boston. What the fuck are you talking about?
No shock you call actual history absurd. Everyone with your opinion about WW2 is just as ignorant as you.Absurd. You whackos believe in total war until it comes to your town, then it’s a war crime.
Most of them were starving and unarmed. Nearly all able bodied Japanese men were already in the military.
Again, CluelessMaximus about history.A yes, the Annual Argument over Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
A few points.
1) The bombing was probably unnecessary because Japan was already looking to surrender.
2) The entry of the USSR into the Pacific War probably had a lot more to do with Japan's ultimate surrender, as it opened up the war on a couple more fronts they weren't ready for.
3) Much of the handwringing we do every year is probably more of a reflection on us. Yes, WE'VE had to live with generations of the specter of nuclear annihilation, duck and cover, Mad Max movies, and so on. To the people at the time, the war had already dragged on for six years, 70 million had died, and to them, the A-Bomb was just another weapon in a war that had seen so many new and awful weapons.
4) In many ways, we should be HAPPY that Hiroshima had happened. Imagine a world where these weapons were stockpiled, and we had no idea what they did to people.
That’s actually true. I didn’t know for most of my life what we did to wage war against the Japanese Empire on their homeland. When I say “we” I mean mostly the American military with its amazing air power. The difference between incinerating large cities with heavy bombing raids and incendiary bombs (on highly flammable civilian population centers) and doing so with one bomb each on two such mostly civilian targets is not that much of a difference.America bombed the hell out of both Japanese and German cities full of women and children during WW2.

Proving again you know nothing. The Japanese people were starving by 1945. Most of their young fighting age men were dead or overseas. They had no air or naval capabilities.That’s actually true.

That said, I don’t doubt for one moment that the Japanese people were fully prepared to fight to the last man, woman and available child against their “enemy” if we had not chosen to make use of the military methods then employed. The casualties to both sides would have been vastly worse.
the plan was to use bamboo spears and to human wave attack the invasion beachesProving again you know nothing. The Japanese people were starving by 1945. Most of their young fighting age men were dead or overseas. They had no air or naval capabilities.
The people had no arms in which to fight, unless you fear pitchforks. You are a pussy so you likely think pitchforks would stop the world’s greatest military.

Japanese Army attempted a coup to keep the war going even after the 2nd bomb.
you make shit up in every new thread on this.Wow, you think Coups are bad things now?
A coup that went nowhere and had more to do with the Emperor considering surrender due to the USSR entering the war than the bombs.
What infrastructure does the Taliban have?Proving again you know nothing. The Japanese people were starving by 1945. Most of their young fighting age men were dead or overseas. They had no air or naval capabilities.

Without the bombs the Emperor would have had the same opinion about the war he had on August 1 and August 21.Wow, you think Coups are bad things now?

A lot more people of both nations would have been killed in a US invasion of the Japanese homeland, than by a couple of A-bombs.
Further, the USSR was threatening to invade and partition Japan as well. Would the world have been better off with a wholely or partially Communist Japan? I suppose that even if America hadn't dropped the A-bomb, Japan would still have surrendered in very quick order before that would have happened.
But President Truman was unwilling to take that risk.
Without the bombs the Emperor would have had the same opinion about the war he had on August 1 and August 21.
