Maybe that will make you feel big.

War isn't a pretty thing, and I'm not going to say the A-bombs were justified (different books and different people have different opinions on whether or not they were necessary to end the war, and I'm not asking for anyone to tell me whether or not they think they were, because I don't care for an internet opinion on this matter), but saying
your pay back is unfair. Just like how you argue the japanese public can't be blamed, it's hardly fair to blame the american public for the a-bomb. One more thing, I'm fairly certain you can't carpet bomb with nuclear weapons just by the sheer radius and force of their explosions. Edit: I don't want to get snippy, I'll just cut this.
