you might have a point if the nukes had been dropped on Kure port and the Sasebo Naval Arsenal, but they were not

In case your reading skills haven't been up to par, the Kure port facilities were at Hiroshima, and the Sasebo Naval Arsenal was at Nagasaki ... and you didn't mention anything about the fact that there was an Army HQ responsible for the southern part of Japan, along with a military presence of thousands of soldiers and military industrial facilities in both locasions.

Or are you arguing that you believe that any civilian presence at the target locations gives them protected status ...?

That’s like saying that Fort Hood (well, I guess it’s Cavazos now) isn’t a valid target because Killeen is right next door ... and then arguing that, since Fort Hood isn’t actually Killeen, it’s not a valid target.

Now I know you’re being deliberately obtuse. Kure is in Hiroshima and Sasebo is in Nagasaki. You have no arguments, just wanna be a troll.
