‘US government documents admit that the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not necessary to end WWII. Japan was on the verge of surrendering. The nuclear attack was the first strike in Washington's Cold War on the Soviet Union. Ben Norton reviews the historical record.’
Nothing you said was wrong, but the conclusion doesn't follow to me. Does any of that justify the bombings? The US didn't nuke two military bases, these were largely civilian city centers. Relevant military targets (within range of US bombers) had generally already all been levelled at that point.
Not to mention that it has been shown, time and time again, that the nuclear bombs were not integral to the Japanese surrender. Unless your argument is simply that murdering civilians is totally okay purely out of a sense of revenge.
