amazing how when we (nuked)bombed that island to hell and back Japan decided they had had enough
Do you really think that nuking the whole Arabian world would be a solution in the WOT? In difference to Japan in WWII the Taliban/al Kaida/Hamas/al Fatach/GIA etc. etc. etc. do not have a combined leadership. It will be difficult to impress all those "leaders" to make them stop their terror. Some might stop, others will not. In difference to the Japanese they are not afraid of being killed. Being killed is the shortest way to heaven for them. Any nuking would give those terrorists the justification to do the same to America. I.e. to use Sarin in American towns. This would be a quite simple instrument for Arabian idiots to retaliate. The sad thing is that we know that they have such means and that there are ways to bring them to the US.
Do you really want to expose your own compatriots to the blind revenge of high end terrorists that are in a hopeless situation? Do you really want to start a genocide on all people of the middle east? Do you really want to join the club of mass murderers like Hitler and Stalin?
I would think twice before giving such statements.
But the obvious reason must have been, just as in the Europe, Not the constant, unending American victories in the every major engagement, total naval and air superiority, and technological and industrial capacity light years ahead of the rest of the world combined. It was actually because after Germany surrendered, Stalin finally declared war on Japan. SARCASM
