May the glow of Atom guide your path.
LOL. You win "FR Snark of the Day". By a country mile, too.
“the horror.”
It’s easy to condemn the US for dropping the bomb’s on Hiroshima & Nagasaki - until you understand the history of Japan’s atrocities.
I’m 3/4 of the way through “Unbroken” - Louis Zamperini’s story. The book gives an excellent account of Japan’s actions before and during the war and it’s treatment of other cultures - specifically it’s treatment of foreign prisoners. I would like to see just one leftist explain why it was wrong to drop the bombs - in the light of ‘the rape of Nanking’.
In the end, those bombs saved the lives of millions by forcing the Japanese to surrender. It’s horrible to ponder what would have happened otherwise...
“Note: color has been removed to reduce the horror.”
Classic!
An appropriate response to the atrocity perpetrated on the men at Pearl Harbor.
For all the whining about the effects of radiation burns etc for the civilians, there’s no mention of the burns our sailors suffered at the hands of the Japanese.
And the accounts of men trapped in ships underwater who slowly died because there was no way to get them out.
