Nuking Hiroshima and Nagasaki actually saved a lot of lives and it

but really unneccessary in the end. It's pretty well known that the
Japs were already talking up surrender options with the Russians prior
to the bomb drops. Old Harry Ess wanted more to show them "damn
rooskies" the full power of the USA and Hiroshima and Nagisaki were
good excuses to do so, and then spread the "saving millions of our
boys" lies...

The August bombs were for Stalin as much as for Hirohito.
