Redemption? Pearl harbour was 70years ago

I'm sure the 2 atom bombs you killed millions of innocent civilians is more than enough redemption also

Pearl harbour was a terrible sneak attack and they deserved some redemption for that I just never understand how people think the atom bombs were justified. Phone Post

If a guy is raping your wife and you are shooting him with a .22 and he doesnt stop. Wouldnt it make sense to get the .45 out?

I know that a pretty simplistic analogy but the Japs were warned plenty of times. Were we supposed to wait till they started showing up on our shores in mass till we did something that ended the war?

Think about if that happened. Then everyone would be saying "We had the bomb and the govt was too pussy to use it until we lost XXXXX American citizens!"

Kind of this.

The Japanese warrior mentality would never allow them to surrender.

Look at how viciously they fought and died to defend meaningless islands.

There were reports of pockets of Japanese still thinking the war was going on years after the war was over, stranded on some remote island.

Honestly, it was probably the threat that Tokyo would be next that finally got them to surrender.

The code of warfare was quite different for the Japanese than it was for the Germans and Italians.

Yeah Im not trying to sounds like the American with a hard-on for war or whatever. But at that point in the war the bomb was needed.

I no the japanese probably wouldn't have surrendered so it was probably necessary but my point was to say they are still due redemption for it is ridiculous

Could have at least attacked a military zone instead of major cities haha Phone Post

Cowardly?


The Japanese pilots that attacked were anything but cowardly, in fact they embodied the direct opposite dying for a cause (even if the cause is wrong)





btw my father missed his boat heading to PH and was stuck in San Fran. He would have been there and maybe I wouldn't have ever been born.
