I educated him on the savage nature of the Japanese going back to their invasion of southern China and Korea in the late 30’s. Then he got a lesson the fire bombing of Tokyo and Yokohama, that made no point on their leaders who continued the savagery.
He was not aware but was when I was done.
I love Japan and the Japanese. For 30 years, I did much of my business there and made many friends. But the Japanese of those pre-war and WW2 days were incredibly brutal and inhumane.
Those two bombs saved the lives of TENS. OF. MILLIONS of Japanese.
