Isn't killing 100,000 innocent people in a way where they couldn't possibly defend themselves while they did nothing wrong a pussy move?

that's where your history fails you. it was hardly a pussy move to drop those bombs. what you don't realize is the bombing of japan was killing far more civilians than the bombs did.
revisionary history tells you nukes are bad and in 2010, they are. in fact, they are an anomoly of civilization. But at that time, it was a much different story. civilians were THE target of all sides at that time. the fire bombing of london, the fire bombing of dresdon are 2 classic examples. civilians were fair targets. no such thing as smart/precision bombs at that time.
