Guest theloneranger100@aol.com Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 Yup.........America KNEW they were Necessary.........Donchaknow.......... "Saturday June 30, 8:41 PM Japan defence chief says US A-bombs ended war (AFP) - The atomic bombs dropped by the United States on Japan were the inevitable way to end World War II, preventing the Soviet Union from invading the Asian country, Japan's defence chief said Saturday. "I understand the bombings brought the war to its end. I think it was something that couldn't be helped," Defence Minister Fumio Kyuma said in a speech at a university east of Tokyo. Some historians say that the US atomic bombs dropped in August 1945 on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing about 210,000 people, were unnecessary to make Japan surrender. But the United States must have thought the atomic bombs "could prompt Japan's surrender, thus preventing the Soviet Union from declaring war against Japan," Kyuma said. "I don't have a grudge against the United States," he added. His remarks drew immediate protests from victims of the attacks." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what the Japanese government has always said, Ranger. Try reading some average Japanese posts, on Google groups, though! The average Japanese thinks Harry Truman was a war criminal and the Americans were worse than they were! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have dropped the bomb on Mt Fuji, just to demonstrate we had it. That would only have blinded a few people. The problem with my charming pacifist naivete is that we simply weren't certain the damn thing would explode. It was only the 2nd or 3rd bomb we ever constructed, and we only had one more. Hence, we had to make sure that one would be enough, in terms of causing deaths. We couldn't, for example, make a peaceful demonstration of one bomb, and then when Japan still refused to surrender we try our last one on a city and discover _it's_ the dud. The military problem was Japan insisted on fighting to the death. That tactic, without any military value, ensured that our own troops remained in serious personal danger long after any actual battle was lost. So, by this narrow reckoning, we had to bring them death to make them stop. Even then, the only thing that saved the Japanese from their warlords was their Emporer saving his own skin by switching sides, then writing his wartime role out of the history books.

Why would any good American who is knowledgable in WWII history (such as The Colonel) give a rat's ass what a few radical Jap usenet posters would think. Only an America-hating nitwit like yourself would place any credence in such nonsense or even bring it up in the first place. And BTW, the "average" Japanese does NOT think the way your lying post would have us believe, you inbred moron. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, Empires that LIE, INVADE and MURDER should be TERMINATED using whatever Mega Bomb is available. But after loosing our free press, our democracy and our freedom, and since our rulers have lied, invaded and murdered the innocent people in the Middle East for the past 59 years, we need to drop the next A- Bomb on Washington. Although the OWNERS of america control the media, prices and wages, there is still a chance to save America : The communist government in Washington is OUT NUMBERED by 300,000,000 American Slaves. Educate them and they will remove the Corporate military dictatorship , restore the constitution, and restore a Democracy in America.

Well, I'm askin' ya.", > George Axelrod, "Bus Stop" - - - - - - - - - - - - Japan's PM Angry Over A-Bomb Comment By KANA INAGAKI Associated Press Writer July 01,2007 | TOKYO -- Japan's prime minister sternly reprimanded the nation's defense minister for saying the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were an inevitable way of ending World War II, and asked him Monday to refrain from making similar remarks. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe told Defense Minister Fumio Kyuma to "strictly refrain from making remarks that cause misunderstanding," said chief Cabinet spokesman Yasuhisa Shiozaki. "It is necessary for Cabinet ministers to pay constant and careful attention to what they say and do so that they do not cause any public misunderstanding," Shiozaki said. Kyuma's comments offended survivors of the bombings who believe the use of atomic weapons was excessive, but the minister is not expected to resign. "I understand he will carry out his responsibility as a Cabinet minister in consideration of the prime minister's stern warning," Shiozaki said. On Aug. 6, 1945, the U.S. dropped a bomb nicknamed "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, killing at least 140,000 people in the world's first atomic bomb attack. Three days later it dropped another atomic bomb, "Fat Man," on Nagasaki where about 74,000 are estimated to have been killed. Japan, which had attacked the United States at Pearl Harbor, surrendered on Aug. 15, 1945. "I understand that the bombing ended the war, and I think that it couldn't be helped," Kyuma said in a speech at a university in Chiba, just east of Tokyo. Part of the part speech Saturday was aired by public broadcaster NHK. Kyuma, who is from Nagasaki, said the bombing caused great suffering in the city but said he did not resent the U.S. because the bombs prevented the Soviet Union from entering the war with Japan, according to Kyodo News agency. The remarks were quickly criticized by atomic bomb victims. Nagasaki Mayor Tomihisa Taue called the bombings the "indiscriminate massacre of ordinary citizens" and the opposition Social Democratic Party called for Kyuma's dismissal.

It was never necessary to drop it at all. The reason why it might not work -- well, the bombs were prototypes, but the construction was pretty robust. Once the conventional explosives were detonated the rest was pretty simple. Few moving parts. > The military problem was Japan insisted on fighting to the death.

The Japanese Army was insisting that there be no negotiations until after they had had an opportunity to repel our invasion of southern Kyushu. The Japanese Army was also insisting that the terms of surrender include: a) No occupation of Japan b) Japan be in charge of any war crimes trials c) Japanese soldiers simply pack up and go home without surrendering or being disarmed. It was only on August 10 that Japan decided to try to surrender before we invaded, and to try to surrender "just with a guarantee for the Emperor". And by that time both A-bombs had been dropped.

The vast majority of people killed in Hiroshima and Nagasaki were old people, children and women, non-combatants. I find that to be despicable. Should Japan have been defeated? Yes. Did we need to kill hundreds of thousands of innocents to do it? No. In any event, your opinion doesn't impress me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And by that time both A-bombs had been dropped. They were all negotiating points. By the time we dropped the bomb they knew the game was up. In any event, we could have dropped it in Tokyo Harbor or Mt. Fuji. It would have had the same result. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
