Japanese had it coming, thats my personal opinion, but i know that wasnt the reason why we dropped the bombs. there is no way to bluff a enemy totally commited to war into surrendering. the only way to wake these fuckers up and let them know the war was over was to drop some heavy firepower onto them. its sad that it took that kind of devastation to end the war, but the US, Britain, Commonwealth, USSR and China didnt go into the 20th century looking to fight this war. victory was ours because of that we decide how the war will end. this was a total war, and the only acceptable way for us to end it was to have the unconditional surrender of the Japanese Empire. there was no way to get that w/o getting nasty.
