When Japanese complain about our two atomic bombs and forget about their attrocities, my simple reply is "When I see and hear trash like you, it is too bad we didn't 50 or 100 atomic bombs to use.

Some Japanese admit the bombs were the best thing to happen to them at that time. It ended the war The fanatics would have had the Japanese fighting to the bitter end with a lot more casualties.
In addition Russia was about to come in and would have gotten the northern Japanese Islands as a reward

We have meet several Japanese couples who said that if we had not dropped the atomic bombs, they or their parents would have been killed in the invasion and their fanatics fighting to the bitter end as you noted.

It is the left wing history revisionists in Japan and the new Nazis in Germany who want to revise history, who are the problem.

I think that the use of those bombs in Japan to some degree kept them from being used in other wars (there was push for their use in Korea, even Rep. Lloyd Bentsen advocated their use and encouraged Americans to contact their congress critters about supporting this measure).

We could have even had a few launched our way from Cuba, after all, until someone touches the hot stove, someone is always going to want try it.
