Im sorry for saying that attack on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was justified
Months ago, i made a thread where i sayed that Oppenheimer and USA army overall did what they had to to stop Japenese genocide on Asian nations, but now i realised that you never cant justify Innocent civilians getting hurted, no matter the side you are on.
Oppenheimer himself feeled awful after realising that he created thing that can destroy whole city in few minutes, but i guess this was only way, because imagine that germans would make they own nuclear bomb.
But overall, sorry for what i said, i realised that i didnt make me better from tankies that are trying to justify red army's war crimes.
Civilians never should be victims

What about civilians who argued for the war?

One could argue that bombing both the pro-war and anti-war capitals was fair.

Weapons are meant to be used. That's the reality of warfare. It's a sad thing, but a lot of things are sad.

I think the bombing they did on Tokyo was bad too, but that's the reality of war; like I said.

It’s cool man we all say things we regret I wouldn’t hold onto it so deeply, just learn from your mistakes no real need to apologize.

Well, at least there's hope.

For what it's worth, I am very grateful there was no internet back when I was a young man.

What matters is that you are making an effort to learn and have enough character to admit when you're wrong. That counts for a lot.

I agree, but all too often they are.

That was still nothing compared to the flaming whirlwind that destroyed Nara.

The one some guy caused with a few bonfires and a storm pattern, way back in the 8th century.

It was kind of like Dresden, but Nara never recovered. Turned the whole city into a nature preserve.

Nothing. I had a case of flashback. Family Guy style. No wait that was a cutaway. Eh same thing.

I nuke enemies in civ, but real nukes are terrible. Your skin will melt, your clothes are attached to your skin, and bleed from eye. Even if you don't die.

Lotta stories of people simply being thrown away by concussive waves, then landing in collapsed houses unharmed outside of the danger zone.

It's the long-term radiological impact which is the real issue, and which modern weapons like Agent Orange match or exceed in scope.

If he did ask that good for him he should question why Israel’s allowed to do that to Palestinians. If any other country tried anything like that America would bring them freedom much like we did to Japan(which I think is disgusting we even attacked them like that all we had to do was blockade an island literally surrounded by water) We are just turning a blind eye and slowly letting them do it while we say oh come on guys don’t do that. Come on for real bros. Play nice. Which is pretty gross.

It’d be certainly more amusing if it was a family guy cutaway tho.

Like this

But instead of soup it’s Gaza. Or the West Bank. Just a light scolding. It’s ok if they do that apparently.


Either way dewido shouldn’t be so invested about feeling bad about what he said as long as he learns from it. I remember that thread and it’s ok to have different opinions about things

those bombs were NOT justifiable.

-attacking civilians in any war.. like bombing the german cities and yes the japanese too.. is a warcrime for which the responsible generals in the west should have been brought to justice too.

-the rape and displacement of germans by societ troops too was a warcrime those involved should have put to justice for.

the nukes at the point they were done were no longer needed.
the reason they were dropped was to "see in a real life test how they perform"
it served ZERO tactical goal.
most japanese cities were already bombed by conventional bombs.

the targets were picked on purpose as "relative unscaved cities" and the original target.. that had military targets in it.. was actually changed as it was bombed by conventional; bombs just a week earlier...

so they did not pick targets that were military.. nor cause they were tactical.
they used 2 city's for a life experiement of civil population.

that is a warcrime.

I think it's childish to talk about war.

It's all childish copycats.

By 2010 new problems surfaced. There is low birth rate. The is an aging population. Japan remained resilient while europe, US and other countries imported millions of people from 3rd world countries. Because it's cheaper that way to get their pockets filled with tax money. As a result crimes and social unjust happened. Disney and netflix have already changed almost every character and culture to suit these people, and people still thought that it's a temporary thing.

The leaders are paid millions. They have all not provide us any intelligent solution.

War would fix all those problems without having to change the leadership.
