>>Would it be unfair to point out that we did do a pretty good job of obliterating Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Including more than a few innocent children and civilians. In a war. In order to save the lives of Americans which otherwise would have been lost in a Japanese invasion. My guess is that a pretty high percentage of Americans today approve of that historic act.<< BP - We also firebombed every major city in Japan, except for Kyoto and Tokyo (I think that's right) killing far more civilians of both sexes and all ages than the atomic bombs did. Don't forget the firebombing of Dresden, either. I don't know if the majority of Americans approve of those acts, but I don't. I don't think there's ever a valid excuse to kill innocent people, war or no. - Allen
