Using the A-bomb

[Helm]

There are atrocities on all long wars. Yes. Does this fact mean that we should not be so hard on war atrocities? I do not understand where you're going with this. I think dropping the bomb was in many ways the only thing the US could do (bobo explains better than I could) but that doesn't make it a GOOD thing. It makes it a profitable thing for the Allies at that certain historical situation. Those are not the one and the same. Much in the same way I would consider it a necessity to kill someone who is trying to kill me in self-defense, but still not consider my action a GOOD action.

My point is not a big one, but it's a point I needed to make.
