In WWII I would have opposed the use of atomic bomb on civilian targets such as Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but I would have supported it against military targets.

Which is interesting because Hiroshima and Nagasaki where both home to a majority of their military manufacturing capacity, thus, they are military targets and a large population of the civilians who lived in those cities worked in said manufacturing.
