Wasn't it more like 150,000?

If that nuke wasn't droped many more American lives would have been lost. That Atrocity seems justified in my eyes.

If someone would have asked me just this morning if there is anyway I can imagine you can make a greater ass out of yourself after this thread: http://www.dubcnn.com/connect/index.php?topic=55309.0

i agree in some respects what he's saying. The general of japan said he would not surrender until his army was defeated. If the atomic bombs werent dropped then
1) America + what was left of europe troops, would have wage a full attack on japan.
2) Many many japanese soliders would have lost their lives.
3) Many many allied soliders would have lost their lives.
4) Allied armies would have bombed the hell out of japanese cities including tokyo (highly populated, and is the center of their country. what new york is to USA)
5) Alot more money would be spent by both countries.
6) Even more money would be spent from America to rebuilt what we bombed.
Yea it could have gotten pretty bad, but that ^^^ is all "whats the worst that could have happened" The fact is nobody knew exactly what would have happened. You could make the argument that dropping atomic bombs sent a message to the japanese to surrender, because if they didnt we would drop more atomic bombs.
but would 1 atomic bomb be enough to send a message? I agree with the intent of the bombs (stop war before it happened stopiing 1-6), but to take away that many innocent civilian lives is just wrong.
