Re: Hiroshima 60
The Japanese army’s barbarity oftentimes disgusted even the Nazis . One Nazi official actually pleaded to Hitler for intercession. One should read “Rape of Nanking” by Iris Chang to get a better understanding.

And those of you who are criticizing the way war was conducted by the Americans should remember that the timeline was 1945, not 2005. Indiscriminate bombing of cities was normal part of warfare. The bombing of Dresden was worse.
The hypocrisy in this forum is unbeliveavle. Close your eyes and imagine it is 1945. Imagine we have an atom bomb, and the Indians dont; but they are fighting savagely to hold on to Kashmir. If we choose to fight along conventional lines, half our milirary will be obliterated. Are we going to blink even once before dropping one in New Delhi???
