>America only had 2 choices: Nuke 'em and kill 150 000, or invade the mainland and kill 1.5 million. They chose the humane option.

Meanwhile, in reality: The US could have picked the obvious third option of blockading Japan from things like oil, but allows things like basic food, fresh water, and medicine to pass. This blockade remains until Japan comes to its senses and accepts a peace offer.
The US instead: Let's see my new toy work. Let's see again

Aside from Indochina it's also literally only ww2 that saw this scale of mass bombing, and unlike Indochina both sides were doing it. WW2 is really a category of it's own, when dealing with the scale of death that war had all comparisons really go out the window.
And even then you're wrong, the majority of people will defend Ukraine's attacks on Russia. There are those who'll defend Hamas' or Iran's attacks on Israel, or America's attacks on the middle east following 9/11. People defend the attacks of the IRA, the FLN, and countless other groups. And spend any time on this board and you'll find people defending the atrocities of preindustrial nations during war (the Spanish are particularly common in this regard, but all seem to do it)

I just don't think that killing civilians should be unconditionally accepted as fair, and I find it very puzzling how some people are okay with ww2 civilians being bombed but in a different discussion the same people screech about how civilians shouldn't have to pay the price for the atrocities of their government.

Make of that what you will.

At first yes, over a thousand Israelis were killed on October 7th, and this gave Israel the right to proportional reaction. The problem being the war has passed out of proportion

International law is a young creature even today, nevermind back in the 1940s when it was basically nonexistent. But this has been the typical reaction of humans when their opponents ignore the rules of warfare, look at Spain in the Napoleonic wars, or Germany during the 30 years war for example.

>everyone also agrees that nazis were evil
Implying that every German civilian was a nazi, which they weren't. In fact, only a minority of the population were ideological, which was the same case with other authoritarian regimes such as the USSR.
Not a single historian will defend the idea that most Germans were dedicated nazies.

2. People overwhelming voted NSDAP for the economic situation, not because Hitler was going to start genociding and start world war.

Aren't communists and jihadists a death cult too?
So why do normies morally question the legitimacy of bombing women and children in Vietnam or Lebanon even if it makes sense from a military perspective, but putting this perspective on ww2 makes same people foam at their mouths as we've already seen in this thread.
It's literally cultist gatekeeping that applies solely to ww2, even if the conflict was nearly 100 years ago and absolutely deserves to be discussed in earnest.

I dislike this arguement.
Firstly while the Nazis alone did not have the majority vote, right wing authoritarians supportive of war in the east did. They just disagreed with who should lead Germany.
Secondly the German population absolutely had the ability to stop extreme Nazis policies when they were unpopular, as seen with the end of the aktion T4 program.
While the German populace might have disagreed with aspects of nazi ideology, they still were broadly supportive of its ideals.

Ok so you basically deny what the overwhelming majority of historians affirm, that the majority of German population did not vote for NSDAP because of expansionist warmongering to the east, nor were they supportive of genocidal policies.
Göbbels himself wrote in his diary during the broken glass pogrom that he feared they may have gone too far because the German public resented such actions.
T4 was literally being kept away from the public, relatives were usual told that the victim had died of natural causes. TIK did a great episode on this.

Also, the German government framed ww2 as completely defensive. The invasion of Poland was framed as defensive. The war against the west was framed as defensive. The war against the USSR was framed as defensive.
This isn't any more weird than North Korea framing the Korean War as defensive and you're literally punished if you believe otherwise.

That's because these wars involve a larger state acting aggressively against a smaller, weaker state for not falling within their sphere of influence. Which doesn't work for WW2 since it was a near peer conflict with the Axis powers being heavily industrialized and wealthy nations.

I mean both sides are largely equal in military might. I'd even argue that it was far more disproportionate between the axis and the allies.

The simple answer is no. Targeting civilians by their millions isn't justified even if it's militarily logical.

Germans were broadly supportive of recovering previously German lands in the east. What they feared was war with the west. They were certainly overall supportive of an authoritarian system, and there were no backlash against the system of settlement and genocide in the east against poles despite it being common knowledge, like there was against aktion T4.
>T4 was literally being kept away from the public, relatives were usual told that the victim had died of natural causes.
What does that have anything to do with what I said? the public still found out about it and it was stopped because of the backlash. Are you trying to deny this basic fact now?

Curious, there was no backlash from the Russian population against Stalins rule either despite him killing millions and invading other states.
It's almost as if they had limited knowledge and lived under an oppressive regime, and generally just tended to their own lives, which seems incomprehensible to a man of 2025 that people were not politically tuned in 24/7.

How many British rioted over the Boer war and mistreatment of civilians? Can we now start saying that the British public carry a responsibility for failure to act? What about Belgian civilians passivity towards the government rule in Congo. Do we hold them accountable for not resisting?
Historians have long debated this, and used countless of letters from German soldiers serving in the east where they express doubt and concern whenever they witness hints of ruthless government policies.

You're literally fabricating arguments that the German people were completely fine with the acts of their government based on a fantasy premise that is ONLY applied on ww2, because this narrative have a strange cultist gatekeeping.

Unironically you're the one using whataboutism.
Your main argument literally was "what about holocaust/general plan ost".
That's literally whataboutism because you're trying to deflect the debate on the morality of the bombing campaign on civilians.

We literally had this conversation before. Just because an authoritarian government commits an unspeakable crime, that doesn't automatically mean that killing millions of civilians yourself isn't a crime, norr does it mean that those civilians suddenly weren't civilians or were responsible.

I really think you're low IQ by the way, because you had no point with this.

I'm guessing your point was that you now "disproved" me, that killing millions of civilians was justified because the holocaust, done by the German government, was worse., which it was, but it neither resolves the act of killing millions of civilians yourself or legitimize those civilians as responsible targets.

>If it could be achieved peacefully yes, not through war
Again, debatable in regards to the east alone.
>Curious, there was no backlash from the Russian population against Stalins rule either
What do you think I'm going start defending the Soviets? No of course I'm not you faggot.
>It's almost as if they had limited knowledge
Yes I am aware of this, hence why I focused on the crimes against the polish, as opposed to the Holocaust as the true scale of the latter was hushed up, while the former was common knowledge.
>How many British rioted over the Boer war and mistreatment of civilians? Can we now start saying that the British public carry a responsibility for failure to act?
Yes actually, the liberal campaign In the 1900 general election explicitly rallied against "barbarism" carried out in the Boer war and lost the election, so the British population carry blame for the horrors of the war.
>on a fantasy premise that is ONLY applied on ww2
Where did I say this only applies to the Germans and ww2? You're a dishonest faggot who's trying to misrepresent my whole point. Why do you keep resorting to whataboutism?
I like how you dropped trying to argue about aktion T4, I hope you soon realise you're just as wrong about everything else.

Intelligence confirmed Japan was developing atomic capabilities.
A blockade would have given them time to complete their own bomb.

You think Israel invented blockades? Do you know what a blockade is in the context of actual warfare and not just the jewy shit that Israel does in Gaza?

The third option is a non-unconditional surrender which the Japs were almost certainly willing to do, although of course it makes less sense from a purely militaristic point of view.

Japan wanted a peace agreement mediated by neutral countries (Sweden, Switzerland, USSR) with the US to end the war prior to August 1945. This could've ended the war earlier in 1945 saving hundreds of thousands of lives. The US refused this because they wanted to test nuclear weapons on a civilian population and intimate the Soviets. The narrative that the US "had" to drop the bombs to avoid an invasion is post war Allied propaganda

There is. The Imperial Army was a respectable military which fought to protect the people of Japan and liberate Asia, whereas Palestinian "children" are Hamas terrorists who needlessly slaughter civilians in both Israel and Palestine

Why would I need an argument to prove that mass murder of civilians is wrong? Isn't that obvious? Would you be okay with getting mass murdered as a civilian?

Correct. The Nips were legitimately bonkers in the 30s-40s and were never going to give up during an invasion. Why would they? They have no where to go and nothing to lose. Never mind the fact that they're most suicidal people in history to begin with.

There were many accounts of women throwing their babies and themselves off of cliffs b/c the propaganda dept. convinced them the baka gaijin would literally eat them alive. The Chinese would've and so would many of their other Asian neighbors and the Nips were even known to go cannibal at times(see: George Bush Sr. war stories....it's the most fucked up shit you'll ever read. It was classified even from him until the early 2000s. He was a cunt IRL, but he and Kennedy were good soldiers too).

It's sounds funny, but it's not. Le Nippon was Western on the outside, but still had a very strong Imperial/Emperor worshiping cult. It wasn't a joke. It was Taliban tier crazy. When a people are that far gone, there's no way to reason with them, you have to knock them the fuck out and let them wake up in the hospital under treatment.

It sucks because it broke the soul of a noble and beautiful people, but they fucked up, really, really, really, really, really, really bad by attacking Pearl Harbor. Arguably, the greatest miscalculation in military history. They still haven't lived down the shame of it. The only thing that will help them get up and running again is another war they can win and fell proud of. Maybe help defend Tiawan against the Chinks, or something.

As it is, they're a whipped cur slowly dying of cowardice in the corner. It's a damned shame, but they ultimately brought it upon themselves, which means they can also remove it from upon themselves.

Japan fucked around and found out. They were in no position to dictate, or negotiatie anything ever. The fact that they even tried showed their arrogance. When someone is kicking your teeth in after you sucker punched them, the last thing you should do is say "Hey, let's talk!". No STFU, take your ass whooping and be quiet, or it will ONLY get worse.

Hamas(tm) is a wholey owned subsidiary of Israel, Inc., so they're the one's "sponsoring terrorism", or whatever.
