were you in Okinawa? did You fight? How can you say its not relevant to this thread? you are crazy. If what led up to the dropping of those bombs is not relevant then I don't know what is.
Its as though none of that mattered.

I think you havent even read and understood what I have been saying in the thread all along.
Go back... read it... and then tell me how its relevant to what Ive been saying.
Let me try and get my point across with an analogy that is easy to understand... was colonialism justified? slavery?
I understand that it was "the norm" during that time. I would never try to justify it though which is what some people (mostly Americans but I suppose not restricted to them) try to do regarding the atomic bombs.
Furthermore... the people that fought in the war were not the decision makers and at that stage of the war, the Japanese were of no threat to the US so for that reason alone your post makes no sense.
