After six months of extreme strategic hearth-bombing of sixty seven eastern cities the Hirohito regime left out an ultimatum given via the Potsdam announcement. President Harry S. Truman then ordered the dropping of Little Boy on the city of Hiroshima on Monday, August 6, 1945, some say it grew to become into his plan to drop the 2nd if Japan surrendered or no longer, we would in no way comprehend. the eastern militia refused to provide up besides, vowing to combat to the final infant, in trouble-free terms after the 2nd bomb fat guy grew to become into dropped over Nagasaki on August 9 did Hirohito interfere himself and surrendered.

no... no .... no....
hiroshima and nagasaki
you may ask why was tokyo not bombed? the answer is because it was already bombed to oblivion. b-29's had been making incindiary bomb raids for weeks before we were ready to drop the a-bomb. by that point, the two biggest industrial centers were hiroshima and nagasaki.
another curious fact, the first bomb (hiroshima) used enriched uranium. the nagasaki bomb was enriched plutonium.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Wow! The passive voice ("was...dropped") sounds so morally neutral. . .
Logically speaking, one wonders why the new and advanced technology of the atom bomb removed the necessity of determining right and wrong in OUR decision to slaughter a quarter million civlians as they went about their daily life...
With a double tongue,we now attempt to advertise our "superior morality" over other evil nations by posing a pitiful prosecution of individual solders who--in the midst of terror, confusion, rage,and disguised terrorists--kill a civilian, when in these two cities in Japa, WE cooly calculated from abroad how many civilians we could burn, torture and kill--with the descision-maker insulated from all danger and without even the pilots getting hurt!! No Kamikaze pilots for us--or suicide bombers?!
It would be interesting if a movie could be made of that supreme horror depicting the bodies and wails of thousands of burning babies; the anguish of women clutching their screaming children as they staggered to--nowhere--their seared flesh dripping from their bodies; the ex-marketplaces packed with the dead, the barely dead, and the writhing anguish of the almost dead; the hopelessness of those who could have lived--but found only the rubble of death at every hosiptal.
Our thermometer of right and wrong must be screwey somehwere: We make pitiful criminal accusations of teen-age and slightly older soldiers--(whom we send to war and death because we're afraid to go), who WERE innocents in the fine art of killing--;
we inflict unbelievable emotional and physical torture to men we asked to defend our borders at the risk of their lives;
THEN THERE'S HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI. . .
