That was sooooo cool! We dropped the second one, as fast as would could to fool Japan into thinking that we had more. Japan surrendered fast. We did not have a third nuclear bomb ready. Japan could have continued fighting for years. Those bombs saved many American lives.

<< ... not to mention equally or more deadly conventional carpet bombings over Dresden, Tokyo, etc. >>

Let's hope that there isn't another world war, where our very survival is at stake. Hitler didn't care if we burned Dresden to the ground. When you have criminally insane leaders, the people always suffer.

That is what is happening to Iraq. The criminally insane Saddam doesn't care if his people starve to death, or get bombed into the ground. It is about time that the free nations of the world said NO to the dictators. Of course, we won't hear the corrupt Pope say anything. He is too busy counting his gold.

I'm hoping that Iraq is the first of many, not the last.
