If Japan had a bomb, and they warned the us, would the us back down?

ask the pilots, the ones who dropped the bomb on hiroshima if they would do it again?

How old are u? Cuz by the way your acting you seem a little childish to be on your parents computer, your thoughts and arguments are uneducated and foolish, we used that bomb on them to save our asses, war is war, there are rules, but very few, i\'m sorry i feel bad we did what we did but its not gonna change anything now, everyone hates us cuz they are jealous they wanna have what we have, well guess what lifes not fair clowd 9 or what ever the f*ck ur name is, three final words, just grow up!!!

I have become weak by your ignorance.  I must go to sleep.  I\'m a mere mortal.  I can not compete with such power.:yawn:

I\'m not with Clowd on every point (I still don\'t understand this "sector 7" thing) but I think you should all be a little more willing to challenge the conventional wisdom.

The fact is that Truman could have ordered one of the atomic bombs to be demonstrated on a sparsely populated area of Japan, and then waited to see whether they were willing to negotiate.  There would have still been one bomb remaining to use on a city if needed.  We were not certain either weapon would work, but that\'s not really important.  A dud dropped over Hiroshima would have been just as worthless as a dud dropped over an agricultural area.  

You must acknowledge that the decision to kill civilians was made with the goal of posturing ourselves against the Russians; it had nothing to do with ending the war quickly.  The Japanese leadership was looking for a face-saving way of surrendering at that point, and a less deadly demonstration would have brought the war to a close just as rapidly.

Very true, but you can\'t say we didn\'t give warning.  It could have very easily been prevented, but as you stated (Kinda) I\'m not sure if they really wanted them to heed the warning.  I think the US wanted to show the power.  

But hey, why did it take two bombs to stop the war?

If we warn them first then I think it\'s ok.

So here it is.

"If you beat us we will nuke you," promised Bush at a press conference in the beloved rose garden.

I like the way you think buddy.

See by the USA beating Mexico it made thousands of angry people lose ALOT of money.......also its one  first signs of the apocolypse! For it says when the free people who fought for there lives defeat the ones who wear the sombreroes on there heads shall force lava rain on the earth but if the free people also defeat the drunk people the world will be forced into war destroying evrything! RUN EVERYONE!

Quiet, you.


And i think we had every right to bomb Japan. The bastards got us at Pearl Harbor without warning. At least we warned them first....

I disagree.  We should not have bombed them, especially not twice.  Why not just set it off in the ocean, but close enough so they can see it?  No one is hurt, and they get the point.  Or at least select a military target, instead of attacking a largely civilian area like Hiroshima.  Still, they were warned, and it was during war, so that sets it apart from terrorist action.  It was bad, but not as bad.

And dropping the bombs, as was already mentioned, really had nothing to do with Japan.  It was to send a message to Russia.

And Cloud, grow up.  You sound like a moron.

Dropping the first one into the ocean, at least they could see it?  Um, we dropped it right on them and they needed a second one to stop the war.  Dropping one in the ocean would only have gotten it wet.

They would have surrendered before a second bomb if we gave them more time.  They were still scrambling to figure out what happened and how.  We only gave them a couple days.  That\'s horrible.

No love in war. They started the war with us and they gave us no choice.
