I think the (obvious) intimation is that, despite the Pearl Harbour attack, dropping atomic bombs (years later) on major Japanese cities is considered by some as very, very unnecessary, especially when considering the devestation and death caused by the blanket fire-bombing campaigns (which killed far more people that the a-bombs).

Funny how a thread about a crazed megalomaniac with nuclear weapons turns into an American bashing thread.
Because world events and the United States are two separate topics? The US is intimately tied into the North Korean situation. The US is the chief topic of discussion for nearly every political conversation... again, for pretty obvious reasons.
