The atomic bombs were war crimes guys, time to apologize
Fuck the nips, and we should have nuked berlin too
Getting nuked was karma for all the fucked up shit Japan did throughout the war.
How about no, don't start shit you can't finish.
Eh, might as well start lumping in Dresden and the other bombing campaigns if you're going to go down that route. It was war; no one's hands were clean.
If it weren't for the nuking, Japan would be not only be irrelevant today, but destroyed via land invasion and Cold War. Also they need to, at least, publicly acknowledge all their wrongdoings.
>war crimes
Not only no, but fuck no. They deserved what they got.
The nuclear bombings were not warcrimes. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the site of enormous concentrations of military industry. We had already done almost exactly the same thing by way of incendiaries to 66 other cities, killing perhaps as many as 1 million Japanese (whereas the atomic bombings killed, max, 200k combined). There is nothing to apologize for. They started the war, and we ended it.
Pro tip: If you don't want to get bombed, don't bomb other people. It's that easy.
I think the proper attitude is to be somber but resolute about the bombing. One should not take glee in the action, but it should be seen as having been necessary or at least justified.
>Society for the Dissemination of Historical Fact in Japan
They can fuck right off.
>bomb military targets
>war crime
lolwut, you can make a better case for the fire bombing campaigns being war crimes than you can the nukes
So what I'm hearing is we should have dropped more.
2 nukes were enough to stop the war and get back at the gooks for pearl harbor, 3 would've been too much, since we might not have gotten qt cat bois in that timeline.
>Destroying a city with a lot of bombs
Perfectly acceptable
>Destroying a city with one bomb
EBIL WAR CRIMES!
>war crimes
No such thing.
>were never going to surrender
This is blatantly false. The Japanese had already sued for peace before the battle of Okinawa.
You first for what you did in China and the rest of South east asia.
ITT
Oh boo hoo sticky goo the nips got the first nukes. It was a quick way to end a really shit war. We might not have cartoons about monster girls if they hadn’t got a little radiation.
>saving millions of lives versus a mainland invasion
>War crime reeee
Then again, if theres enough radiation, you might get catboys for real.
god we can only hope so
Also Moscow and as much of China as possible.
This though mostly.
Shit happens in total war. The nips went on a mad rampage across east Asia, the krauts did heinous shit across Europe, the Brits toasted Dresden and the USA nuked the nips.
It’s a shitshow in general.
The terms they wanted were not the unconditional surrender terms the allies stated they wanted from Germany and Japan.
Pearl harbor was a war crime; get fucked.
I've never understood this mindset. WAY more people got killed in the firebombing campaigns, and that's definitely a way worse way to die if you were one of the ones who would have been atomized by the nuke.
It's like how antigunners think that being shot dead is magically more horrible than being stabbed dead, but they can never explain why.
Pearl harbor, nanking (and the rest of china), korea, malasia, burma, the philipines, the aleutian islands, and oh yeah, even fucking mongolia.
Japanese soldiers would literally rip the babies out of the bellies of pregnant women and parade them around on their bayonets. Two bombs werent enough, twenty bombs wouldn't have been enough, we should have kept dropping them until that whole cursed island chain sank into the pacific.
I would rather be nuked than burnt to death. I’d also rather one to the dome than getting stabbed a bunch of times.
If they had done the land invasion instead we would just have people complaining about them occupying foreign land and raping all of their women
>oh wait
Guess hippies gonna hipp
Have they apologized for Unit 731? That shit was WAY worse than the two nukes. From a moral standpoint at least.
The War on Drugs is a crime against humanity. it's straight up terrorism.
time for govt to capital punishment all DEA/ATF/DHS/CIA agents and apologize to the world
The terms they wanted were exactly the terms the ended up being accepted: total surrender except for the person of the emperor.
Only the loser is tried for war crimes.
And all it cost was the potential extinction of the human race.
