"The decision to drop the bombs on the cities is controversial, even today,..."

BS!
More leftist historical revisionism...

Speaking as someone who was 12 years old when the bombs were used, there was nothing but national joy and elation that a zillion of those slant-eyed bastards were wiped out...

We (Mom, brother, and I) felt, for the very first time, that we'd see Dad come home alive...
He had been a Marine since February 1942...

If we hadn’t had the bomb to make them surrender, and the US faced HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of US casualties in an invasion, do you have any doubt in your mind that US public sentiment would have approved the total extermination of the Japanese people, using our stockpile of chemical weapons and incendiaries?
