War is hell: US forces killed civilians not much differently than Japanese soldiers. Some civilian deaths were more notorious and personal than others sure but deaths nonetheless. In remembering the victims of the atomic bombings, I always make it a habit to remember the 60+ million others who died during the whole of World War 2, not just those who died in the last months.

Do Japanese remember that their USA 'friends' did to them?

I find this question amusing: the US and Japan weren't exactly 'friends' when the atomic bombings occurred.
