If any other country had developed the atomic bomb before the US did during WW2 they sure as shit would have used it without thinking twice. Nazi Germany was working on it since 1939, we just beat them to it. We had already lost 500,000 troops fighting in the European theatre of war, and Truman wasn't going to potentially risk losing millions more men fighting a country who's soldiers would rather commit Seppuku than surrender. As someone who never got a chance to meet a great uncle because of the Japanese Imperial Army, I don't feel bad at all.
Why don't you read about the sick, twisted shit the Japanese were doing to the Chinsese before the war before you go spewing your anti-American rhetoric.

Wait so you are okay with 9/11 because it saved lives? Because some people claimed by those terrorist attacks happening millions of lives were saved. That is a legit reason to do something like that according to you.
Did you even read the article you linked? How can you claim no naval blockade when the article talks all about it happening? How can you ask me to read something when you don't even read it and furthermore why would you link something about how bad the Japanese were to the Chinese when I clearly stated in the post that you yourself are quoting that what the Japanese did was horrible?
