mapleleafforever, I ... ( 18 hours ago by overseer1981)
mapleleafforever, I urge you to read "House of War", an award-winnipeg book about the bombings of nagasaki and hiroshima that came of a year or two ago. It was a new york times best-selling book written by a journalist and pentagon insider. It describes in great detail how the nuclear bombing of japan was motivated by callousness and done only to make a statement to the world about american supremacy.
the bombings did ... ( 18 hours ago by overseer1981)
the bombings did not take place for the reasons you stated, and the people in charge of the bombs development and deployment were themselves not motivated by such a flimsy argument. that the bombings saved more lives than otherwise would have bee the case was only a convenient myth to sell a horrified world and american public at home. the facts are that japan was ready to negotiate a surrened and in fact had very few men of fighting age in the country able to defend it.
the US Strategic ... ( 18 hours ago by overseer1981)
the US Strategic Bombing Survey, the most authoritative review of allied and axis airstrikes and bombardments written after WWII, concludes the following: "certainly prior to December 31 1945, and in all probabilitiy prior to 1 November 1945, Japan would have surrendered even if the atomic bombs had not been dropped, even if russia had not entered the war, and even if no invasion (of japan) had been planned or contemplated"
The atomic bombs ... ( 16 hours ago by MapleLeafForever89)
The atomic bombs combined killed 220,000 and ended the war.
The Japanese weren't about to surrender seeing as they were going to start conscripting men 15-60, and women 17-45. Also they were going to slaughter the 100,000 Allied POW's they had they were invaded.
Leading up to the invasion conventional bombing would have increased which would have killed many. The Japanese would have continued slaughtering Asians in areas they owned. Millions of Japanese deaths were expected in the invasion.

Oh okay, afghanistan looks less evul in my opinion tho :p

Bush didn't do - he's just a puppet to take the blame away from the higher elite, he couldn't plan his way out of a nursery classroom.
9/11 was an inside job though, WTC 7 gave that one away.
The blitz was aimed at civilian buildings in Berlin where people lived - that wasn't good.
I don't agree with dropping bombs on civilians to save lives because the Americans didn't have to invade and could of used diplomacy to get peace. I have strong faith that diplomacy can go a long way with skill.
The invasion could ... ( 15 hours ago by AmericanHero911)
The invasion could of been put in the bin and diplomacy could of been given the thumbs up.
Dropping bombs like that is the worst case no matter what because it's simply something we wouldn't want to happen to us.
I'd rather be invaded that have a bomb like that dropped on me, think about the chances of survival :s

Diplomacy was used with the Germans at the beginning of the war and look how that turned out.Japan wasn't about to surrender.
Chances of survival? Are you kidding me? Lets go through this again. 220,000 died from the nukes. Millions would have died from the invasion. Also over 250,000 Allied casualties were expected.

ya, maybe certain parts of the country are absolutly but not where we went, we went into the taliban heartland and i think its safe to say that its just as bad as iraq if not worse, if you have a chance to talk to some soldiers that have been im sure they will say the same thing ;).

Yes, the nukes did save lifes.
On a side note, more japs died from the fire-bombing campaign over Tokyo than both of the nukes put together.

Okay what would happen if we chose neither the bombing nor the invasion with Japan.
Instead, we'd try to use diplomacy with the Japanese - maybe they would listen better than the Germans?

But a lot of soldiers have told me they just want to go home and insist it's completly impossible to take Afghanistan.

Diplomacy saves lives but it needs to be elite diplomacy - one which ensures a lot of compromise and fairness to all parties at the same time.
For this to work, greed must be left in the bin outside...

They knew the weapons of mass destruction lie would be exposed sooner or later, they needed something BIG to act as an excuse to invade Iraq even though it would still be classed as an illegal war under the U.N. Charter and American Constitution.
Even the 9/11 job couldn't be linked to Iraq but in still caused enough panic and fear to allow this war to go on without too much protest.
People knew what "terrorism" was that day and would become a lot more willing to accept choices made.

Well, all I can say is thank god people like you dont run the US or youd be bending over so often youd get chronic back pain. Speaking of chronic, lay off that shit "hero" your starting to sound like fucking idiot.
