Researchers in Hawaii find lost Japanese WWII mega-sub

[Javaman]

8. you post lots of good stuff...

but the fact remains, we dropped the bombs as part of an overall strategy, true, it did, as a side effect, show the russians that we had the bomb and we would use it, but they were primarily used to show japan that we wanted the war ended and ended now, however, due to Operation Downfalls plans to use the bombs in the invasion, doesn't negate any of what you wrote.

My point is, the over all argument of "a million lives were saved due to the use of the bombs" is still a week argument because, we were going to use more if the Japanese didn't capitulate.

That's my point. And I'm not disagreeing with anything you wrote.

And I'm glad you sources your references. However, I could use less of the over zealous nature of the wikipedia references. I find them very incomplete and far from being peer reviews as material to site.

I like the Fear of communist revolution stuff. I have to read up on that. Interesting.

Cheers.
