I stand by my earlier remarks - I remain grateful my father did not have to embark on a campaign in the Japanese homeland. I regret the loss of innocent life - the Japanese sowed the wind with their barbaric and unprovoked attack on Pearl Harbor and reaped the whirlwind resulting directly therefrom. Looking for war crimes? Try the rape of Nanking or the manifold atrocities of the Russians during WWII - they make the Nazis look like pikers. Don't blame the Americans - we never deserved what happened to us in WWII - we were on the right side, it was a just war and thank God we prevailed.

So the deliberate killing children in Japan was OK?

I didn’t say others didn’t commit war crimes, what I’m saying is that we committed them as well - something that many defenders of the use of atomic bombs gloss over...
