Yoshana,

Both Hiroshima and Nagasaki were struck as military targets, and rightly so.

Hiroshima: Ground zero was the main factory for ball bearings for military use such as aircraft. Without it the Japanese ability to build weapons was greatly reduced.

Nagasaki: The largest torpedo factory in all the world was ground zero.

So NO atrocity at all. Get your facts straight, do some reserch, don't just buy the revisionist view some now wish to "spin" the past acts of the US as.

edit : You might also read my post on that thread linked above for you. It will show you some other facts you should research on the conduct of what are often now portrayed as the "poor innocent Japanese" who were victomized by the might of the US.

Why aren't those acts remembered and condemned? They should be, but that isn't PC these days.
