I tend to think that most heroic decision makers don't look back. It's the only hope they have to keep their sanity to their last days. It's like putting your horse or old pet dog down. What choice do you have? Go for two points.

Truman dotted the i when the second bomb went down on Nagasaki.

But if you think about it, lying to oneself or to others in order to make impossible solutions justifiable to even history must be agonizing to those who harbor second thoughts.

Witness Sec'ty. McNamara of Vietnam infamy.
