I disagree with your characterization of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki strikes as an "atrocity" Please refer to thread here, and especially to airspirit's posts, for a little bit of context. NOT using a weapon that will end a war is an atrocity. They started it, we finished it. And we didn't rewrite the history books to our perspective. I think that 50 yrs of scrutiny has given the world an objective view of the reality of that war. Your cynicism is misplaced here.
