I thought Trueman justified that bombing was necessary to shorten the war and reduce human tragedies, Your are right, there was more than meet the eyes. To give message message to Stalin , bombing large civilian in another country is really cruel and too naive that I would have expect from Stalin. I would have exploded in remote area a ocean to do the same job. USA is lot different country because of great General Eisenhower. He first alerted general population that military adventure are unpatriotic and unnecessary. His going away speech at WH is beginning of true modern US military policy. There is still ways to go but I am hopeful. |

Read carefully what I wrote. I do not justify bombing Japan with atomic bombs. Dropping bombs was planned to make Russians think twice before exporting and expanding communism to other countries. Since Japan caused a huge havoc at Pearl Harbor, American military generals were more eager to drop the bombs on Japan as a retribution. Yes, it was totally unnecessary. Worth watching this recent TV serial if you love to know the history and drama of making the bomb. http://www.imdb.com/title/ tt3231564/ On Fri, Aug 12, 2016 at 7:32 PM, 'Khoniker Othithee' via Bangladesh Progressives <bangladesh-progressives@ googlegroups.com> wrote:
