Anyone questioning the decision is a historic illiterate who understand nothing about the situation at the time
An Invasion or a land-sea siege would of killed 10s of millions of Japanese. Either as collateral damage or via starvation and disease
The Japanese Government was mobilizing to wage a total war if invaded. Every Japanese from child to elder was to be used as a weapon.
It idiocy this question is still being asked by Democrat Marxists in the US “News” media
Oppenheimer was a man of the left. He knew all the los alamos spies. He was well aware of the leftist argument that the bomb was too important to be in an American hands only. The same argument is made about Ai today. During the 1930s he flirted with communism. He well understood the divided loyalties of the scientists at los alamos. “Blood on his hands” could also be treated as a future history of the USA in which this country was bombed by a Russian nuke which was made with the help of scientists at Oppy’s lab.
Whose blood was poppy referring to. History generally imputes Japanese blood. But the left has historically been so double minded that oppy could as easily been referring to Americans.?
