No.

Should be avoided at any cost. However should innocents become harmed their families should be justly compensated.

Sometimes collateral just cant be avoided.

hi obama

Idk. Was nuking Japan necessary? It’s an honest question.

actually. more civilian lives were saved that way. The propoganda of imperial japan was causing mass hysteria amongst the japanese population. Okinawan japanese civilians were reported to jumping off cliffs and committing suicide to avoid the "wrath of the americans" to the point where americans were ordered to intervene if they saw japanese civilians attempting to take their own life.

a Mainland invasion of japan would likely have been a gory hostage situation which would have prolonged the war for another 2-3 years.

So with that in mind, do you think setting them off was a better option?

For making a point like that, no. Not productive.

But to achieve something maybe yes.

I’m no historian but wasn’t Japan about to surrender even before the nukes?

the admiralty was ready to surrender, they needed the Emporer's approval. The emporer however was not budging. After nagasaki he finally conceded because # 3 was going to land on his head.

To think is the opposite of do.

never necessary, but its going to happen every single time anyway because it would be too expensive and time consuming for soulless world governments to perform for more precise strikes/operations.

That's a question that will have to be answered by those who were never alive while all of us have lived to meet anyone alive then are still around.

What's the cost of stopping a North Japan / South Japan situation? I don't know.
Was the United States the one to make that decision in earnest? I don't know.
Should we have fought the Japanese to the last man, woman, and child without using nukes? I don't know.

But remember the US killed more with the firebombing of Tokyo than with both nuclear bombs combined. Those victims get ignored in favor of the more politically interesting ones, and that's not fair.

Unless the enemy is on your land and civilians are working on their new front line or something no. Nobody should be allowed to just bomb everything because " bad guys" Unless you are israel then you are allowed to do whatever you want apparently.

If you try to commit sabotage in a tantrum because you didn't get your way, it proves the employers were correct, and you're unfit for the workplace.

You might. It depends on how offended you get when hearing the truth.
