<<America's Habit of Revenge by James Carroll>>
Revenge the reason for use of A-bomb?
I totally disagree, I was near Tinian at that time, nobody was thinking revenge. Did not even know if the bomb would work. Kamakazi were hitting our ships
America was tired of war, would use whatever existed to stop it.
It was a test with results unknown
We had it, we used it, it worked
Saved millions on both sides to stop that war
