Reply #242: not when we nuked a defeated nation trying to surender... TWICE

[bpilgrim]

and they were colonizing asia... just like we were, hello, so don't pretend that we were comming to the aid of free nations to rescue them from tyranny, please. (though i am sure you will ignore that evidence as well, not to mention what we have done since, vietnam, south america, africa, ME)

your answer 'no one knows' is BS we have the historical record and the opinions of the men who were there - military men no less - and they all agree they were not necessary.

btw: the japanese surrendered when their one condition was met so that pretty much closes the case.

the institution of the emperor as figure head had existed for centuries as it does today.

you are a prime example who can NEVER admit to any american crime no matter how obvious nor horrific in scope.

sounds like you still have a LOT to learn from MLK. i wish you all the best you have certainly picked a good teacher to learn from.

peace
