If I'm as big a terrorist as that nut job in Iran, the so were Churchill, Roosevelt, and Truman. You don't win wars with moral equivalency. You pound you enemy to dust until they surrender. I guarantee you that one big one on Tehran will stop all the fighting. No more insurgency in Iraq and hezbully dries up and dies. I have the balls to do it. You don't have any barbs on your berries. That's your problem. Last edited by alias; 08-15-2006 at 11:27 AM. | ||||||||||||||||||||||

| Truman had his reasons. They didn't really know what an atomic bomb could do to people, at least in the long term, and Truman wanted to scare the Soviets. Was it right? Hell no. But he had his reasons, and politically, they made sense. My political compass Economic Left/Right: 5.63 Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -6.41 | |||||||||||||||||||||

| I believe it was right. It was right to save American lives. An invasion into Japan would have cost us Thousands and thousands of dead Amerians. They knew what kind of bomb they had. They did a test explosion in the New Mexico desert. Truman wanted to end the war and he did. If you want to stop terrroism, then blow off the head of the snake in Tehran. | |||||||||||||||||||||

| If we ever evalute killing that many innocent civilians as a good thing we are completely lost. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- "There is no such thing as laziness. Laziness is only lack of incentive." Norman Reider, MD Morality is not contingent on religion to exist. Therefore religion only detracts from the purity of morality. | |||||||||||||||||||||
