The japs attacked us first.
Thank God for the bomb. Or that bastard Emperor would have killed all the Japanese.
WWII was so much more complicated than who used kinetic force first. Just like the currrent russia/ukraine conflict.
BL for me though is using the atomic bombs did end the war earlier and saved millions more than it killed, both American and Japanese. An invasion would have killed millions and then that mass famine would kill millions more.
