Nagasaki remembrance day

Just a reminder. Today is the 60th anniversary of Nagasaki, Hiroshima was a few days ago. I watched a documentary on the after-effects caused by Radiation Sickness a few days ago .. and noted today. The above link is to an msn article from today's ceremonies in Japan.

Fair enough our country was at war with them back them but sheesh...that'd be a nasty thing to cop! Hopefully never to happen again!

You can believe that if Japan/Germany had the bombs they would have surely used them on Briton and the US for sure.

shoulda woulda coulda isn't really the point of today

that's like saying 9/11 wasn't a big deal because the US bombs other people all the time - in shear numbers alone, compare 140,000 dead in Hiroshima in seconds and 75,000 in Nagasaki, to 6000 who died (albeit tragically) during 9/11.

And Dresden?

The firestorms used by the US to destroy Dresden was nothing short of devastating: realistically the list of disasters could go on and on. No one is denying that.
