Friend, I don't know where you are getting your statistics from, but the two atomic bombs that were detonated in Japan did NOT kill millions of people; approximately 140,000 were killed in Hiroshima and approximately 80,000 were killed in Nagasaki. That's a total of about 220,000 people (not even 1 million). Do you know how many Chinese were killed by the Japanese during WWII?? Was it more than 220,000 people?? Well, estimates are as high as 20,000,000 Chinese killed by the Japanese (yes, 20 million)!!!!!!!! Japan was on a Nationalistic Fascist rampage with NO signs of letting up... the Japanese killed more people during WWII than the Germans did!!! Is it a horrible thing that many people died by the atomic bombs that were dropped? ...YES!!! It is a very horrible thing that many people died in Japan because of the atomic bombs, but should America have sat back and done nothing as Japan killed millions and millions of Chinese and threatened the U.S.??? Nope... I don't agree. If anyone should be apologizing around here it should be the Japanese apologizing to the Chinese... TO THIS DAY THEY HAVE NOT

The victims during wars( no matter where) are far beyond counting. The point is not how many, how , and why because it happened in WARS, and the Nuclear Bombs in Heroshima & Nagasaki are for putting an end to the wars. Its had to say it is right or wrong because it was during war and we did not know if there was another way to end the war at that time. The history tells us NEVER TO USE BOMB AGAIN, no matter it is used for what to whom. Thats the point.

At first - officially died only 140.000 for Hiroshima and 74.000 at Nagasaki. (including peoples died from consequences) At second - during only Nanjing Massacre japanese killed more than 300.000 peoples. Ethnical cleansings in Singapoure (more than 100.000). And Manila (~100.000). Also we could remember atrocities like Unit 731. At third - how many times japanese apologized for these?

Yeah, U.S. is the only one that has used nuclear weapons. It's really sad there are still Japanese people and Korean people suffering. At the time, most American military officers' including Eisenhower insisted it's not necessary to drop atomic bombs because Japan was going to knock under to U.S., but despite this, U.S. did do it. Furthermore, before China's intervention October in 1945, U.S. was considering the use of nuclear weapons unlike what is generally known to the outside world. http://www.nautilus.org/fora/security/0503A_Cumings.html Also they considered it many times even after MacArthur Jr. removed from his position. Well, I don't think U.S. can blames terrorism. It's interesting for me U.S. is putting the American people in danger by itself. I don't think it's just because U.S. has a strong power.

I think that the current time and the time during the World War II shouldn’t be compared. Anyway Japan participated in the plot of the Triple Alliance in which over 27 million people were killed only in my country. That’s why I am not going to blame the USA for the horrible but warrantable for that time act. Who knows what would happen if it had no place. They write nowadays that this nuclear weapon helped Japan to stay independent and it was the thread for the USSR that was eager to revenge and occupied Hokkaido. The USA just wanted to stop the spread of a communistic ideology in the new territory.
