are you REALLY that IGNORANT of WW2 history???

according to most scholars & leaders, both civilian & military, Hiroshima & Nagasaki were MILITARY TARGETS. military targets are LEGITIMATE targets of war.

that is why Tokyo was NOT bombed with the atomic munitions.

Your assertion that Tokyo wasn't targeted for atomic attack because it wasn't a legitimate military target is laughable and demonstrates the lightness of your grasp on American history.

Given your posting history, I'd say your grasp on reality isn't very firm either.

LOL. With all the paper and cardboard buildings in Toyko, they didn't need nukes, just a few thousand tons of WP.

Tokyo was virtually flattened in a series of missions that included the March 9-10, 1945 incendiary raid in which an estimated 80,000 to 120,000 Japanese perished (more than in any other raid of the war, including the two atomic bomb attacks).
