It is certainly possible to argue that the use of atomic bombs against Japan killed indiscriminately, that it was cruel, that it caused hundreds of thousands of cases of cancer well after the war was over, and that it sets a dangerous precedent for the use of nuclear weapons in the future. However, I also know of excellent arguments in support of the atomic bombing of Japan. I am not going to mention all of them, but remember before you condemn America, that Japan was at war with America by its own choice. America did not even want to get involved in WW II, but was left no choice after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor. You reap what you sow.
