Quote:Yeah those kids that were incinerated and the others that suffered for years before they ultimately died were totally devils.


Just wow... that is the worst rationalization EVER. I just don't even know what you're trying to say...

Quote:In elementary school I found this text book that was discussing wwii and I read the chapter dropping the bombs on Japan. It discussed the horrors of the decision.


There was a picture that I can still see in my head. It was in black and white, and it was a silhouette of a mother and daughter against this wall of a building that was partially knocked down.


The caption of the picture was something like, the blast was so bright and so hot the shadow of these two victims has been permanently burned into this building.


That picture affected me for a long time. I don't care how evil a government is, no woman and her child deserve that kind of death.

 

You really have no idea do you?

 

How about picking up a book that describes what the Japanese did to POW's?

 

In Albuquerque, there used to be a hospital named Bataan.  Where did that name come from?

 

As always, there are two sides to every story.  So why the atomic bombs over Hiroshima and Nagasaki?  How many mothers and daughters were slaughtered during the attack on Perl Harbor?
