erhm..... 

Differnt situations you cant really compair?

One is a military base, with tiny amount of people (like 2000 people died).

vs main city(s), where hundres of thusands of people died, and millions where made sick by radiation poisoning.

 

You understand that "hundres of thusands" (potentially millions of sick people) > "2000 ish" right?

You also understand in war, in general you attack military with military, and leave the civilians alone.

The A bombs, where targeted at hurting civilians.

 

I dont think he should apology for others mistakes or choices.

However the question you raised is just wack.

Welcome to war? US gave Japan time to surrender they did not because of their pride at the time. They brought it upon themselves and their people because of their actions. Sorry not sorry.

Even if it is war, there are still rules. Probably never heard of "crimes against humanity".

 

And just to go ever further, this kind of ignorance makes me really angry. 

I can still remember when the tsunami hit fukushima a lot of US citizens posted on Facebook that this was the revenge for Pearl Harbor. It just shows how fucking stupid people can be.
