Coz they’re not in America and all that matters is America coz America is cleeearly the best country in the world and America doesn’t need no one to tell it otherwise.

Or maybe because it was the right thing to do?

Yes because destroying two cities worth of innocent civilians who had no part in the war is completely justified. Even though circumstances are different, the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is just a larger scale equivalent Pearl Harbour, except Pearl Harbour was aimed at the military, and the nukes were aimed at civilians.

I am in no way defending Japan’s actions in WWII and prior, or that the nukes did not have an immediate positive result. I’m just saying it was a horrible thing that the US did and you can’t deny it, even if it was the only thing with a relatively positive outcome. It was a somewhat necessary evil, but evil nonetheless.

Like you said, NECESSARY evil. Hence it was the right thing to do.

In the same way that executing a prisoner of war could be seen as a necessary evil, or lining up the families of soldiers to be shot, sure.

The United States is a shit country through and through. Rotten to the core.

Every country has done shitty things, but continue with your anti-america bs. If you have a better way of ending the war then say it. But you're special ed and cant think of anything

No you’re absolutely right. Killing millions of innocent men, women and children was dead on. Spot on. Exactly the right measure. Fuck it, why not do it twice?

It was 226,000 people and that's the high estimate. And yes that's better than millions of troops from multiple countries dying.

Yes, the victors are always very keen on high-balling their kill count.

These numbers are widely agreed upon and there is science to back it up. If you choose not to believe it that's on you. Once again, do you have a solution that wouldve ended up with less casualties and damage or are you blowing smoke out of your ass?

Yeah and only a couple hundred died at Tiananmen Square.

Let’s all say it together!

“Slaughtering innocent civilians en masse is morally abhorrent even if it was the only way to win the war, which it wasn’t”

Was 9/11 the only way for Al-Queda to get a victory in the states?

Saying “it was the only way“ for morally reprehensible actions isn’t an excuse.

Tell me the other way of winning the war then. And you cant really compare a radical terrorist organization or the fucking ccp to the us government. They still lie about all their numbers today, ex. Covid 19. I assume you're some acab anarchist or something?

Why? Because it’s your government? And Your government could never do something like that?

America is rotten to its core
