Harry Truman not only authorized the use of atomic weapons (WMDs) he actually ordered the program accellerated so that they could be used.

And he was (GASP!!!) a liberal democrat!!!

Truman, thank God he did.

There would have been 1 million more casualties and the Japanese culture would have been destroyed.
