despite the numberous casualties i feel it was completely nesscessary. why? because it was the end of the war and the men who had seen their friends and brothers die in the bloody mahem that was the pacific theatre were actually seeing the light of hope for survival. with the drop of the atomic bomb, 18 year old GI joe from walla walla washington didnt have to make the drop on tokyo...somethign that would have cost hundreds of thousands of lives in the process, not only that it may not have been sucessful. however...the results were disasterous. we have seen what nuclear weapons can do when it comes to matters of fear...espically when they get in the wrong hands. its impossible, however, to completely trust anyone with a weapon of this power.
