| What was done was done to end a war and make a point to both our allies and soon to be enemies. In this it worked more than its creaters ever intended. Knowing that the bombs had to be used to further us goals easier, does not mean we should forget the hundreds of thousands that died those two days. The US killed hundreds of thousands of civilians in order to cow a government into surrender. Regardless of the nobility of causing the surrender in order to save lives, we still must carry the burden of the innocent lives we took and try to make it necessary that we are never placed in a similiar spot.
