White noise, no formal 3rd party investigation has ever been conducted, my gut tells me the US is too powerful to be investigated by outside authorities, and my gut also tells me that the US government would never want such a conversation being known

Quotes from those that were appalled by the unnecessary use of the Atom Bomb at that time

We can argue about that later:  none of those quotes IN ANY WAY addresses the claim that I issued my "challenge" on.  In case you didn't pay attention: 

"the reason that is cited by some back then is that the US wanted to see what a Atom bomb could do to a city full of people, in retrospect it was the World's worst war crime in modern history"

"I challenge you to provide solid evidence for your claim that a major motivating factor for dropping the bombs on cities instead of for target practice was just to see what they did to people."

Should I assume that you are abandoning this claim? 

P.S.  Worse than the Nazi "Final Solution", really? 

Your naive to think that some people in the establishment didn't want to see the consequences of an Atom Bomb, they had used great resources in developing these weapons, there was still the military consideration of what the damage could do, scientific curiosity, they had fully resourced teams ready to go to investigate those consequences once it was clear to go,  I have seen some time ago a Documentary on that subject, but I can't recall who did the the doco, sorry

What needs to be done is investigate the degree in which people were responsible for the war crime, how involved they were, how much influence they had, unfortunately the internet wont proved until a full scale 3rd party investigation is completed  

Also most of my first post included other points which you have ignored, but to be honest I can't be bothered to "argue" as I see your actively defending the US here, so I'll gracefully, or not move on ;)
