Right Andrew, you've repeatedly demonstrated an unwillingness to read my posts properly. Your attempts to demonise the Japanese civlians that fell victim to the attacks bely your obsession with making the war in the Pacific out to be some sort of moral crusade.

I can understand the reasons behind dropping the bomb, that it was justifed as a 'lesser of two evils'. But your stance defies logic, and it's taken me this long to realise that you really have something against the Japanese people. Maybe you lost a relative in the war, frankly I don't care. This is the internet, so I'm bound to meet people like you every now and then.

I'm sure it's been educational in a veritable myriad of ways.
