That was some evil shite USA.gov did. If the US would have lost the war, imagine what history books today would say about that.

Explain how that was evil? Would you have been the lead man on the first Higgins boat headed towards Japan? More people would've died invading Japan and forcing them to surrender than that bomb killed. They fought to the death to defend shitty islands that weren't their home. Imagine what they'd done on their own soil.

Guess you never heard of the Rape of Nanking.

Or Unit 731.

Or the Bataan Deathmarch.

Read up on the list of atrocities Japan committed during WW 2, not to mention their mindset during that time.

Yeah, America did the best thing it could've done.

Or how the Japanese would throw Chinese babies in the air and have competitions to see how many they could catch on the bayonets. But hey, America is evil.

The SJW's think they are so smart but in reality they are so ignorant to history hence why we are constantly cleaning up their shite throughout time.

9-11 was karmic payback. We are still drowning in red ink in that department.

It's revisionist history to oppose the droppings. The American public didn't question it back then.

Plus, can you imagine if we did invade Japan at the costs of millions only for it to be revealed maybe a few years later that we had had the bomb? The outrage would've been enormous.

I like how the justification seems to be that we were still "one upped" on atrocities so it's fine. I realize other countries have done awful things and maybe worse. USA.gov (different than inhabitants of America) used weapons of mass destruction on a civilian population. I invite you to google images of people after those bombs were dropped.


I'm anti-sjw. I think war is a racquet and a damn waste of blood and resources. There's dead Americans all over Korea, Vietnam, Middle East and for what? So some farmer in Iowa has religious freedom? Doubtful.

The US has made PLENTY of mistakes and bad things. That's okay to admit.

But I would love for people who make comments like this to see a world, just for like a week, where the US is retrenched and doesn't commit to other areas of the globe.

In its simplest terms others would fill the void and the likelihood of them being American allies and protectors of American interests is quite low (think current Russian, Chinese, and Iranian expansion but on a global scale)

Someone probably will. USA.gov is broke, it will happen anyway.

What did the British empire do for the average joe in Birmgingham? How is the farmer in Iowa helped at all by all this?

Iraq and afg is approx $35k per taxpayer and counting. Will you cover more than your share since you are so keen?

He is either the luckiest man in history or the unluckiest man in history.

I cannot tell which.

This guy was sitting on the bank steps waiting for it to open when the bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. His shadow was burned into the steps by the heat.

The steps are in the museum in Hiroshima where you can still see the faded outline. Really moving stuff.
