It is fascinating to note is that Hiroshima is today a thriving metropolis, and became such only years afterwards... not the untold centuries of nuclear wasteland that the Left tells us is the inevitable result.

Also intriguing is the typical liberal mantra that the Japanese were close to surrender, and that the atomic bombs were an unnecessary evil that America unleashed on the planet (their motto: "USA, evil all the way"). Contrast that notion with the fact that Japan did NOT surrender after Hiroshima!!! Three days later, we had to drop ANOTHER one! Exactly how close to surrender can you be if you take an atomic blast and still keep fighting? The idea that taking mainland Japan would NOT have taken more than 150,000 US and/or Japanese lives is ludicrous. Truman made the right call.

Back when I was in school (ages ago now.....) I did research about the bomb drops of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Part of the intrigue was the effects and the affects on the people who were involved, and the amount of devestation on the city itself.

Alas, if some socialist media (bleep) wants to think that American soldiers could have taken Nippon with 150,000 troops, and been able to subjugate the inhabitants, it would have been a slaughter for both sides. There would have been no way 'cept dropping the bomb(s).

What peace-at-all-costs loving pansies fail to remember is that
A. a man with nothing to fight for 'cept his home is extremely dangerous.
B. a man with nothing to fight for 'cept his freedom is lethal.
