The dropping of the atomic bombs on Japan in 1945 were unnecessary, interesting. The bombings prove your theory is incorrect. 1]Japan is warned of a super weapon, Japan does nothing. 2] First bomb is dropped, over 100,000 dead, even more exposed to radiation poisoning, Japan does nothing. Three days later, 3] Second bomb dropped same result as the first, Japan does nothing. Ten days after the second bombing Japan finally surrenders. Yet you claim the bombings weren't necessary. Why didn't Japan surrender after the first bomb, if they were on the verge of quitting anyway. It took Japan almost two weeks from the first bombing to surrender. Let me get this straight, two atomic bombs did not get an immediate surrender but a military invasion would of had minimal casualties. WOW! Please show me your historicl reference to your point that Truman vetoed all of his generals. If the bombings were racist, what do you call The Rape of Nan King, The Battaan Death March, The Comfort Women, the invasion of South East Asia starting in the 30's. Japan was not the Victim but the Aggressor. Don't think for a minute that Japan would not have used the bomb on the U.S. if they would have created it first. 'Operation Cherry Blossom' September 1945, Japan planned on dropping biological weapons along the major cities of the west coast. Does'nt sound like a country on the verge of surrendering to me.
