Nagasaki and Hiroshima happened after Japan had already effectively lost the war. Attacks against ships at sea or stricly military targets would have had the same impact.

You are just being obtuse now. You know that the bombs were dropped to shorten the war. "Effectively losing the war" and "the war being over" are too different things.

I'm not saying that God was wrong to order Saul to exterminate the pregnant women and children of that people. I'm just saying that the pro-lifers of that generation would have deemed God a baby killer.
