Incidentally, did you know that we never dropped nuclear weapons on
Japan--they faked it to make us look bad.

Did you know that you DID drop atomic bombs in Japan but NOT for the
reasons your Govt had you believe.

Ahh...errr ... Ok, then what 'reasons' do you dispute and why did we
really do
it?

Science Vito, they wanted to test bombs in real life situations, to
see exactly what devastation it would yield.
Japan provided the opportunity to do that, and an excuse that it would
stop the war and save thousands of lives.
It certainly stopped the war..which was coming to a close anyway, and
probably saved many hundreds of American lives but at a cost of around
300,000

So, you discount Hirohito's pledge to fight to the death of every man,
woman, and child in Japan prior to the two nukes?
