I read a book once about 2 POWs who were in Japan when the bombs were dropped and the surrender came. They didn’t know much what to do until the allies got there and these 2 guys visited Nagasaki. They were horrified and didn’t think that the devastation was worth their lives.
I asked my FIL who was also a POW in Japan at the time and he said “Hell, yes they should have bombed them.”
The Chinese would concur; they suffered more than anyone else at the hands of the Japanese. They shed no tears for them.
