5. they were a defeated nation trying to surrender...
none of the military leaders in theater at the time thought they were necessary.
in FACT they thought we should accept their 1 condition to surrender to SAVE LIVES.
just think how many more lives would have been saved if we had accepted their 1 condition in the spring of 45.
to NUKE a defeated, prostrate, trying to surrender nations cities filled with innocent men, women and children with out warning... TWICE is indefensible.
