collateral damage
The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was it justified?War is is a dirty business and yet it seems man never learns.
Does anyone feel that we're yet again heading to a possible extinction of mankind?
Note: if in fact, our earth is billion of years old, was it possible to have achieved such a technological marvel that killed mankind once or many a times?
Just curious.
Thanks all for your reads or comments if any.

That is not making two wrongs right. That is to end all that is wrong.
When countries engage in a war, there are always going to be the vanquished and the victor. I am glad we won it.
Unless we evolve and develop a ' peace-gene', I guess it will never change until we ultimately destroy ourselves.
On a lighter note, I like your new profile photo!
Would you care to list the brutalities your new found country has committed since WW11 ?
The US is and has been the largest terroist group for decades..you just chose to ignore it.
My grand father is one of the first to have been asked to work in Hawaii after the war. We were tributary to the US and until today, all our lands, my dad particularly on the land title, it says: US of America.
But what difference does it make? We are all on here discussing about the relevance of the action taken as needed. War is a war. Someone starts it and someone has to end it. Either one, on this case, I would rather that I am part of the winning team as the world would have been in a different shape. Read the comment of cruiser and if you don't understand that, I don't know why you are even on here.
You ask this question: Are there acts that define barbarism in our world today? Tell me about what is right and wrong and who does it, then we go from there.
Ideally, there should be no war, killing, terrorism, etc. etc. Is it the case? Why? Can you answer that?
I don't need to enumerate the involvement of the US in the current wars, but don't limit your perceptions to what you hear. Take the facts. About Afghanistan, Hussein, and now the ISIS.
This is not pointing out what is your country, or my country and or the countries of the world has done.
This post is about learning what we can to stop all these non sense. If we can.
Have you even read all the post? To stay bearing on the direction of this topic?
I suggest you should read all them. Thank you.
Anyways, maybe you don't know but that spies had been planted in the Hawaii long before the war started which goes to show that Japan had been eyeing intently on that possibility. Not to mention that they badly wanted to own Hawaii.
Heard the term..you reap what you sow ?
