Had nothing to do with the Japanese. We were showing Stalin we could
match his ruthlessness by attacking 2 civilian targets and incinerating

works is if others think you are insane enough to use it.


Someone is insane enough to think we wouldn't, if given sufficient
reason? Geesh, we need to eliminate those people, they are a real danger!
