You are dancing around all the issues. You are for prolonging the way, Costing more American Lives, and ultimately killing more Japanese. Admit it.
BTW would you have stopped the firebombing which could kill 20K+ Japanese each and every day. And could have gone higher. And we were in the process of destroying German cities at the end of the war. Yes we would have nuked Germany. Problem was there were too many American Troops and Russian Troops in the country.
And one American Solder's death was not worth 1,000,000 Japanese. That's the way I feel and that's the way they felt. I am a Student of WWII for at least 15 years..I know. You also may know. Not saying you don't.
Spoke to a 93 year old WW11 veteran a doctor you should speak to him. He would told you kid you got all wrong. He has no hate or regress he KNOWS man himself.
He said it was economics that caused WW11 the pressure of the Industrial Revolution during the hard times depression era got his [censored] kicked from the '29 stock crash a college student.
When he pass away at 94 with cancer gave his wealth to cancer research for man himself...$100 million(stock market), he never lived rich a simple life his diet was his wealth. Wore a cheap $10 watch, the ugliest Honda Accord a homeless man would spit on it. Never wanted to be bothered.
He was born in Florida....live in Hawaii after WW11 as a civilian doctor.
