You guys should really brush up on your history. These two bombs saved millions of lives.
Japan would have never surrendered. Never. They had been teaching their kids for generations that in their schools. Brainwashed that to surrender was a dishonor to their family.
The plan for dropping two so fast back to back was because they believed that Japan would have thought that we just had one bomb, and would have kept on fighting. Even after the bombings their top generals wanted to keep on fighting.
You can look back now and say we should have never have done it, but it was a different time. Attack the mainland, and kill millions on both sides, or drop the bomb and kill thousands.I for one would have made the same choice, knowing the true determination of the enemy.
