This is what Hitler did to Warsaw...
So again, don't ask me to shed any tears about Dresden.
WW2 - justified or not?
Just because the big bad AR-15 bombs are scary doesn’t make them unique in war time compared to all the other destructive forces that were used (mustard gas, machine guns, tanks, firebombs, etc;).
Let alone the handwringing over modern weapons of war - cluster bombs, cruise missiles and depleted uranium ammunition (which is, oddly, considered just as dangerous as nuclear weapons)
Should they ever be used again? Dear God, I hope not and that’s probably the best reason for using them originally.
Lest we forget - Hitler was close on the heels of developing the atomic bombs as well AND had the V2 rockets to deliver them to the US and the USSR was right behind us.
If you wanna play armchair philosopher then you have to ask the question “is any war” justified? And that includes “good wars” like the civil war which is now being erased from US history as an inconvenient truth.
The fact of the matter is that humanity is violent, as any protests in Seattle and Portland and now Austin will readily demonstrate. Would BLM justify its use of a nuclear bomb?
You betcha.
