Any regret can easily be negated this way: Japan picked a fight with the wrong nation. Period.

“Any regret can easily be negated this way: Japan picked a fight with the wrong nation. Period.”

I remember a Sunday dinner conversation many years ago at which my uncle, who fought in the Pacific against the Japanese, was present. One of the women at the table said something like “Wasn’t it terrible that all of those people died in the bombings in Japan?” My uncle replied, “Well, they asked for it.”

Face this fact.

If Japan had possessed a Nuclear bomb and the ability to use it. They would have dropped it on California, or New York.

They would not have hesitated one minute.
