So what? They wouldn’t quit. After wiping out a couple of their cities, which contributed to Japan’s war efforts, Hirohito finally through in the towel.
If we didn’t drop them, we would have had to “put boots on the ground” and estimates run into the several million dead as a result. As it turned out, less than 200,000 perished.
I don’t care if those in Nagasaki were Christians, Jews, Buddhist monks, Muslims, or Druids… it stopped the damn war.
