I know the children of men who were on ships headed to fight in Japan, whose fathers told them how relieved they were to be able to go home instead. Would it have been more ethical to have killed them fighting a conventional war on land in Japan? How many Japanese civilians would have been killed in that conventional war? Millions is what is usually estimated. In contrast, 100,000 civilians were killed in the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, fewer than the Japanese murdered in Nanking. And, no Americans.
