Were the atomic bombings justified?

My feet would fall off in an hour after wearing such "shoes". It's better to be barefoot.

Judging by the intensity of the Japanese bootlicking of Americunts, yes, the bombings were absolutely justified.

>>17901490 (OP)
Absolutely fucking yes it was.

>>17901490 (OP)
whether they were justified or not, I bet flips, koreans, indogs, and chinese were happy japan got nuked.

Japan was being bombed to end the war.
There is no moral conflict.

Japs were not getting the message, they would have lost anyway at that point.

>both sides use their most powerful weapons at their disposal to win
I don’t understand the moralfagging over the atomic bomb. Japan would’ve nuked the US if it could, no question.

>>17901490 (OP)
No. The primary factor in Japan's surrender was the Soviet Union going from a neutral party in the Pacific War to a belligerent in August of 1945. Once their invasion began (on the same day Nagasaki was bombed), Japan's leadership knew that any possibility for a negotiated settlement had evaporated. An unconditional surrender to the Americans would provide the best chance of the imperial house's survival, so they took it.

Axis apologists moralfagging in general is hilarious. The truly think Japan wouldn't have bombed America. That Germany would've been merciful if he allied were crushed.

>>17901490 (OP)
No. Only people who are products of America's "educational" system could say otherwise.

>>17901707
I think it’s less Axis apologists and more liberal socialists that whine about it being racist or something nowadays.

>>17901707
Germany was merciful to their vanquished enemies tho

subhumans. Consider Denmark.

Nobody actually thinks the atomic bombings were anything but an atrocity anymore. They probably never thought they were acceptable, but saying so in the 1940s/50s/60s would result in you getting thrown in prison.

Chang, WW2 is history. Let’s focus on the next world war.

Embarrassing post tbqhwy

Why? The nukes killed less than the firebombings but they provided the shock and awe that made Japan finally give up

>>17901490 (OP)
Yes. Wish I were alive to watch Truman announce the kino.

>>17901490 (OP)

Yes. Absolutely. Demon worshippers need to be purged at all costs.

>shock and awe
Terror bombing campaigns against civilians, including those inflicted by Japan, were completely ineffective when it came to sapping a country's morale. If that were the case, you would have learned about Giulio Douhet in your history class.

I mean, what the Teutonic Knights did was based...

Bump.

Had the bombs not been dropped, millions more would have died. Shortly after Operation Iceberg, the JCC estimated the US would suffer over 40,000 casualties if they carried through with Operation Downfall.
