However, the fact that we bombed two of thier cities in succesion, before even waiting to see if they would surrendor after the first bombing, strikes me as rather barbaric.
We did wait, 3 days and they didn't surrender so we bombed them again. They didn't believe we had more of those bombs.

I don't know if it was right or wrong to drop the big ones, but I do know this, it ended a long and bloody war.

@ PsychoTemplar.
About those quotes, Albert Einstein was one of the most importannt people behind the creation of the bombs. His quotes relate to how the next World Wars are going to be. The next one will be with Nuclear Warheads, then the next war, we'll be back to the stone age. Also, Albert Einstein believed it was impossible to split an atom. When he successfully split one, he thought that he just helped bring the world to an end. It may not happen for the next 100 years, but, he is right. The stupidity of humans will destroy the world.

The War wasn't justified? What kind of bull shit is that? Are you saying we should have let the Nazis take over the world? The stuff some people post here is enough to make me want to cry =/

Let me rephrase that. The Holocaust wasn't justified. But I'm sure you already knew that. Do two wrongs really make a right? I suppose it does in this case. Living under the Nazi's wouldn't of been that bad

Ya especially to a guy whose grandfather died at omaha just so you can say "it wouldn't be that bad to live under them". ya if you consider being gassed, cremated, starved, given diseases, and just plain being shot in packs of dozens not bad then maybe.

Um, excuss me but uh, Robert Oppinheimer was the one that actually came up with the Atomic Bomb. He just worked with Einstein to make the first one.
Then when he saw the massive destruction it caused, he killed himself. (Did a report on him in freshman science class 3 years ago)

Just search the net for Robert Oppinheimer (If that's how you spell it) My advice is to use Google, cause it is just so...... Googalisious 
You just reminded me of something that ima make a thread about.... Thanks!

one of those japanese generals told the others saying that they must be prudent and expedient in their tactics so that they will not wake the "sleeping giant" (aka the United States of America).

I think it was the smiley that just made it a little offensive, and took away from some of the meaning. Without it I wouldn't really object with what he said because it could actually be true. But I don't see anything funny with it them failling miserably either. Then again Mill did say the smiley didn't mean for it to be funny, so I think it's just a misunderstanding. Personally, I would have used

@ultimo: maybe....
in response to the post about if we were in an economical depression. Yes we were, it was the Great Depression. The country was on its knees and we were denying japan oil because of their aggressiveness in the pacific theatre. So they attacked pearl harbor thinking "Their army is in bad chape, we can destroy their pacific fleet, so they'll give us oil," but in 1941 when they attacked, we did the Doolittle raid which sent a small fleet escorting an aircraft carrier to the sea of japan and lauched bombers from the deck of the aircraft carrier. It was to send the message that the United States will not back down, and will fighttoe to toe with them.
lol enough of the history lesson for today.
