Both Eisenhower and MacArthur thought otherwise, but what do they
know? Hell, they were just the generals running the war and commanding
the troops who fought it. Probably a couple of bleeding-heart, pinko,
commie, rat-******* liberals anyway. I'm sure YOU know FAR more about
it than they ever did....

"Japan was already defeated and that dropping the
bomb was completely unnecessary"
Dwight Eisenhower, "Mandate for Change", pg 380

"the Japanese were ready to surrender and it wasn't
necessary to hit them with that awful thing."
Dwight Eisenhower, Newsweek, 11/11/63

"No military justification for the dropping of the bomb".
Douglas MacArthur
Norman Cousins, The Pathology of Power, pg. 65

I agree that there should have been more information in the exhibit. Besides
mentioning the thousands who died because of the bombs, there should have
been mention of the greater number of Japanese lives that were spared from
their inhumane government, who had wanted all Japanese to die rather than
admit that their leaders lost the war, a war they never could have won.

Why not simply include the wanted information in the exhibit ? It seams like
a small request to me.
It is after all true that 100+ thousand humans died because of this
plane/bomb.

Is history now politically uncorrect in the US ?
