  • US just wanted to show off power. i wonder what terrorism really means....

  • @iambored404 or the jewish led holocaust against palastinians.

  • @teenee4 The Japanese could have been throwing rocks for all it mattered - they were not going to give up without a fight. A million plus casualties was the estimate. In that sense, it saved lives.

    If you want to complain about excessive force or casualties, start with the Russians, or Manchuria.

  • There was no need to drop the bomb because towards to end the Japanese were shooting bamboo bullets & were ready to sign a treaty but the stupid US said they had to drop it somewhere more for their ego then to prove a point. & there were POW camps that were incinerated with US POWs dumb fucking, cock sucking, power hungry, brainwashed, GM food eating, USA Military!

  • @quicksliversbutt Hitler was dead when they sent the bomb. Besides Japan being destroyed already: the US had several cities bombed and most of them had wood buildings, they burnt and many many people lost their homes. The war in Europe was won, the marines were at Japan's doorstep, throwing the bomb was just to show the world who was in charge.

  • @Illkiron Yes, there is, because I can and I believe if it hadn't happened, the war could have been LOST! Can you imagine? We would be speaking german!

  • @quicksliversbutt Wait a second, the Americans who were dying, bless them all, but at least they were soldiers; the Japanese lost lots families and innocent people, may those poor civilians RIP. There isn't any point in defending the bomb.

  • @Illkiron I'm pretty sure there is no debate about that... It ended a war where even more people could have died.

  • Americans should stop defending the bomb or whatever... japanese families died, not only soldiers

  • The Japanese didn't believe in surrender. They reaped and the sowed. Tough love was called for and they got it. Next.
