And apparently had no regard for the amount of American lives lost in the long term as a result of their actions.

No. Kennedy and Truman were for not listening to these nutjobs. I call them crazy because it’s either that or they were just plain stupid. Your choice I guess.

MacArthur would have been Supreme Allied Commander in WWII had he not retired to the Philippines for a few years before the War. Eisenhower actually served under MacArthur earlier in his career.

MacArthur was a true American bad arse who didn't take shite from anyone. The guy was an absolute juggernaut in Asia. We were lucky to have him.

Truman was the one who authorized Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I absolutely have no issues at all if nukes were used in response to a nuke attack. In fact, if they were not used, I'd be pissed off.

You seem to talk about the bad things, radiation, millions of deaths, etc. Do you prefer the alternative which would be millions of slaves in the event of a hostile takeover of US?
