The Japanese often refuse to face up to their role in the war and focus on our efforts to get them to quit.

Right after the war, the Japanese started an international campaign to lay a guilt trip on America for dropping the A-bomb.

Some liberal American newspaper sent out reporters to ask Asians how they felt about that. For those who suffered under Japanese occupation, the replies were variants of "Why did you drop only two?"

“Why did you drop only two?”
= = = = = = = = = = =

Because that is all we had???

Wonder what the outcome would have been had the ‘Bat Bombs’ worked as planned....

Dresden Germany gets little mention but they went through a hellish time with fire bombing about 4000 tons of bombs and around 25 thousand killed.

Of course ‘we’ were told Japan got the ABombs for racial reasons only.

As to Japan and the ABomb, chances are that if there had been NO PEARL HARBOR there probably wouldn’t have been ABombs etc..

Don’t mess with the bull, you are liable to get the horn.
