Not a new revelation, but the article pulls from good sources and it’s nice to see this myth repudiated in a mainstream outlet.

    So you are just backpedaling and trying the other path. You got enough reading and listening posted by other people but you are still trying? How about you answer with actual argument instead of cracker concern trolling and emotional blackmail? But to entertain you for a second, i would told Truman to fuck off and accept their original surrender proposition. I would also stab him, maybe it would save millions of people, mostly in Korea.
    Finally, your moral asspull attempt is made even further invalid by the fact that Japan surrendered nearly a month after bombs that’s a month of further “killing my loved ones” in which America did not dropped even more atom bombs? Why if those were what forced japan to “immediately” stop killing?

      So, it’s okay for you to kill in the name of protecting lives, but other people shouldn’t?

      That’s the funniest thing I’ve read all day.

        The US wouldn’t kill in the name of protecting Asian lives because the US didn’t care about Asian lives. They literally had Japanese American children in concentration camps at the time. Half a decade later they’d commit to a massive genocidal war in Korea, and before that they’d do plenty of mass killings of peaceful protestors in Korea.
