I've shut up legions of libs whining about Dresden by telling them of Warsaw, Rotterdam and Coventry. And to nail it all home I say to them ‘’Auschwitz’’. Shuts them up every time. A few years back, in honor of members of my family who were WW2 combat vets(all gone now) and for all WW2 vets I vowed to set the record straight any and every time I hear of, read or encounter the slightest bit of revisionist history concerning Americans role/conduct in WW2 very vigorously and unapologectically whenever I encounter it. I damned near once pulled some stupid sop of a liberal woman through the damn phone after she put some article in the local paper about how awful it was that America dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. It was filled with the usual clap trap about how awful it was that America did this. I said to her, “Would you have preferred that Japan had prevailed? She never wrote to that newspaper again I can tell you.

If the war in the Pacific had dragged on past Aug of 1945, and we lost thousands of more young men there, when the American people found out that Truman had the bomb and didn't use it, he would not only have been impeached... he would have been tarred, feathered and then hung.

Using the A bomb didn't take courage. It was the only choice and in the end saved millions from death.
