Dropping the bomb was a mercy for hundreds of thousands more casualties that would've surely come later in the invasion of Japan. In any event, the Japanese barbarically slaughtered far more people than both bombs in just seven weeks during the Rape of Nanking. Oddly enough, the Japanese are loath to take credit for the horrors they perpetrated all through Asia that made the Nazis look positively compassionate in comparison.

In every way, dropping the bomb was the best and most humane action of the entire war.

These accounts never seem to mention how many of these people cheered when Pearl Harbor was attacked.
