  Maybe the civillians didnt have to die, but, again, i bring this back to the Japanese. The Japanese PEOPLE would have defended Japan to the last man, for "honor". The Japanese were no worse thatn the Nazis in what they were doing to our American soldiers defending our freedom, and trying to end the war through regular war. This did not work, so we had to take it a step further.

  Negotiate if possible. Make concessions if necessary. And fight if it is unavoidable, to protect oneself or to protect the innocent. But there is a line that should not be crossed, whatever happens. And killing many thousands of people, merely to show that you possess the capability, definitely falls on the wrong side of that line.

  One can argue that the intention was to intimidate the Japanese government, rather than directly punish anybody, but in the real world one's intentions rarely matter. What is important is what one chooses to do or not do, and what happens as a consequence. Prevention of further violence may seem a valid motive on paper, but not if it is achieved in such a way.

  But if you become a monster to kill another monster, after the fight is over what are you? Retribution is a human instinct, though one which is not terribly difficult to overcome - but just because it is instinctive, does not make it right. And those killed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki were not only innocent, but quite possibly unaware of what had been ordered and/or permitted by their leaders.

  Undoubtedly that was a horrific atrocity, and certainly those responsible for it were guilty of terrible crimes against humanity. Though I am a pacifist (you'd never have guessed, right?), I can certainly understand (though not necessarily share) the view that they deserved to be executed for their crimes.

  I have some homework for you, google the "Bataan Death March". Talk to me after you read about it.

  I remain unconvinced. I understand why you would think that that, but I still feel that other means could have been effective. History isn't my strong point, I don't know enough of the historical context to say exactly what should have been done differently, but I find it hard to believe that there was no other option.

  that is true, thaere was probably a better way, but thousands of American soldiers were tortured and brutally murdered by the Japanese, meet me in the middle in saying, nukes had to be useed.

  I understand that what was done, was done to end the war. But there had to have been a better way, rather than deliberately targeting innocent people just for 'shock and awe' value.

  I agree with you that murder is wrong, but if we didnt end WWII, how many more Americans would have had to die? I say this with all due respect, but please consider this.
