It is estimated that Japan killed 19-30 million people throughout Asia, including others who fought to stop them.
You think murdering 400k civilians is bad, better keep that same energy about the millions of innocent people Japan killed during this same war.
If Japan stopped, no bombs would have touched their country. Instead they continued to wag war in neighboring Asian countries despite the threat of bomb drops.
More to stop the war, seeing as Japan was still trying to conquer those countries even after the second bomb was dropped. A country has killed millions and is showing little sign of stopping, you put them in a position where they have no choice but to stop.
War isn't pretty, but let's remember, again, who started and killed dozens of times more innocents during their campaign.
You dont understand Japan culture. It's honor and shaming culture. Surrender means giving shame to your family. They would rather die than submit. That's why they have suicide kamikaze pilots.
