Why do whites like Japan so much? What about Pearl Harbour and the marches of death?
Great food, pleasant women, amazing culture and an all-around beautiful country.
The Japanese also are not grudge-holders, and for the most part they've forgotten about Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Pearl Harbor has no relevance anymore, either. Let sleeping dogs lie.
Complete BS, deep down their is a hatred towards the Americans.
Dropping bombs of that magnitude on innocent civilians is fuckery of the highest order.
More people died in the conventional bombing of Tokyo than in either Hiroshima or Nagasaki. Why is it worse to kill civilians with one huge bomb than to kill an even greater number in a span of a few hours with thousands of small bombs? That's pure hamster logic.
The psychological effect of a-bombs saved a million Allied lives, probably 5-10 million Japanese lives, and almost certainly saved Japan from being partitioned with the northern half of the country under brutal Soviet occupation the way Korea and Germany were. The real-life demonstration also helped prevent a full-fledged shooting war between the US and USSR that would have killed more tens of millions. You could make a pretty convincing argument that nuclear weapons have saved more lives than almost any other invention in human history--up there with penicillin and modern sanitation.
Absolute Bullshit. Only a fucking moron or someone with a hateful agenda could believe such propaganda tripe.
Its the same horseshit where people justify Eisenhower's death camps, the allied carpet bombing of civilian targets and war refugee's and all sorts of despicable shit carried out by the 'victors'.
