I agree with Feynman on that. The hand wringing is a form of virtue signaling and self loathing guilt liberals are good at.

Isn’t that the truth. A lot of them engaged in the handwringing AFTER the fact, but if they had reservations, even those they kept to themselves, they should have had integrity and not worked on the project.

You either decide to destroy your enemies who are trying to destroy you, and accept the moral dilemma, or you...get 21st Century Western Culture that refuses to defend itself.

If I am going to make a choice, it will be to destroy enemies who are trying to destroy me. I may not grin and cheer as I am doing it, but I will recognize the necessity.

I think we have lost that gene.

Last night, my wife and I just finished watching the “World at War” British series released in 1975, and I thought it was well done right up until the “The Bomb” episode. (I was surprised, but my wife found it very interesting and wanted to watch it with me...I had checked it out of the Library, and had to renew it multiple times)

The “handwringing” found in the 1975 filming was evident and was bad enough, but putting a scumbag Son of A Bitch like Alger Hiss in there and treating him as anything less than a treasonous Soviet Stooge made my damn blood boil.

So, my views on this have had the bandage of irritation with virtue signaling anti-war Leftists freshly ripped off.
