I disagree with the know-it-all about Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The world had been at war for six horrible years and it would have dragged for years, at a huge cost of human life. Japan brought the U.S. into the war with an unprovoked attack at Pearl Harbor. They were an evil empire that would stop at nothing to win and it's not their nature to ever give up. I have no problem with a terrible act to take out such an evil empire that was just as bad as the Nazis. It's terrible that so many innocent people had to die and suffer, but their leaders caused it.
Sorry for derailing know-it-all's thread. Carry on.
