What's your point of view in the Hiroshima and Nagasaki atomic bomb?

Japan was really not intending to surrender. At all. The only other option was to invade Japan, but that would've causted thousands of lives on both sides, especially for Japanese civilians.

The U.S had no option but to use the nukes.

And besides, the point that there were no millitary bases and it was just for bombing civilians is not true.

Hiroshima had the head quarter of Japan's second army and was a communication center n' all that.

As for Nagasaki, they were extremely unlucky. Kokura was the original target, but most of the city was covered by clouds and it got in the way of the bombing, so they just bombed Nagasaki instead.

I agree that the nuke was a horrible thing, but it was necessary to end World War II. It really is basically being between a rock and a hard thing.

Yeah lucky they dropped the bombs so not thousands of people would not lose their life..

....you're intentionally not getting the point it seems. -_-

A U.S invasion of Japan would've been more costly on both sides than the two atomic bombs dropped on them.

Like said before, they estimated a million lives would've been lost. How many of those do you think would've been civilians? Many more than were actually killed on the bombings.

Their is not really proof of it. Except that it would be more costly on USA side.
