@thecaptain293 gief = internet slang for "give" Thought everyone would know it. My english skills are above average but sure, could be better. Nobody is perfect. Define foreign. Sweden is centre of Europe, Europe is centre of economy, power and technology. You're from remote Americas. I should probably call you foreign. So if it was Japanese placing the bombs on your town to end the war it would still have been "all that matters"? Geez, how narrow minded can you be? Think outside the box please.

@AnnabelLolita What? Either you're foreign and have a very poor grasp on US history, or you have terrible English skills and are an idiot. And also you need to get over yourself. It's easy to use hindsight to ponder what people should have done or said, but it's impossible to make these judgments in their shoes. Truman ended the war which is all that matters.

@Hperman09 do u read facts and watch this clip? Why you make things up?

[thecaptain293]

@AnnabelLolita Arguement? First off, it's argument. Secondly, I'm citing sources in my argument. That isn't trolling, it's being rational and intelligent.

@AnnabelLolita Actually the US only had two A-bombs, they threatened Japan with the use of nukesagainst just to make them surrender. Japan thought that their country would be nuked so they surrender.

@Hperman09 Japan was defeaten u know, Britian had beaten Japan in the west, USA in the East. Only place with proper use left was the Japanese mainland. Japan refused to surrender. However you are right, it is very likely that the atomic bombs were the best solusion with actually the least losses for Japan. However the way Trueman speaks he wouldn't have stopped until the did surrender. Meaning he was going to continue even if whole of Japan would be a crater. Thats what makes it most terrible.

@AnnabelLolita Without the A-bomb, then millions of Americans as well as Japanese civilians would be killed more than the two A-bombs. Put yourself in the shoes of an American soldier fighting against the Japanese in the Pacific.

@AnnabelLolita Read "Thank God for the Atomic Bomb" by Paul Fussell. Educate yourself, then get back to me.
