We won the war, did we not?
While the nuclear bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima was way over the top, you know that diplomacy wouldn't have meant jack to the Emperor. And I love how you throw out the word "millions" so easily, seeing as how our casualties estimated around 300,000...but hey close enough right? That's not to say that 300,000 lives is nothing, that's alotta people...But the fact is that if America hadn't stepped into the war, the chances of Allied victory would have been slim-to-none...Alotta Europeans would be speaking German right now and alotta Asians would be speaking Japanese. Pacifism is nice in thought, but there's always gonna be people would pose a threat to the world and there's always gonna have to be people who combat them.
