Ya, dropping the A-Bomb in WWII was for the good. The huge sea/land battle in Japan would have left millions upon millions dead. Invading Japan would have been like D-Day multiplied by 27.45.

We definately needed to do something in Japan, but dropping that bomb was a bad idea in my opinion.

In Hiroshima, there were 120,000 casualties. 60,000 of which were deaths. That was out of a population of slightly over 200,000. It was mass murder. It wasn't to get to a specific target, it was just to flex some muscle and get some revenge. We could have done that without killing so many innocents.

That was a good find ZeroCooler. I particularly liked the point this one brought up.

define "innocent" in a war situation... The only innocent I know are non-supporters of the war... and children. But the powerful contries are the only ones that seem to fight fair anyway.

As fr the Bush thing, remember, the media shows us what they want us to see, and he was showing Osama what he wanted him to see. We won't ever know if he's telling the truth about not worrting about Osama or not.
