    Don’t forget the old chestnut about how nuking Japan saved more lives than it took, and we had to do it/didn’t know better. I still remember that one. I think some teachers still teach that.

      Yea how very American to decide the enemy population won’t surrender so we have to nuke them.

      After they’d already proposed conditons to surrender and their only request was to make their emporer the equivalent to the queen of England politically.
