What does that have to do with this topic in any way?
Can you post them? No, guess why? They were detonated while still in the air.
throb, do you really think that someone in Japan in 1945 would surrender if we destroyed a mountain? Chances are the Japanese would have been just as likely to see that as a sign to follow the emporers wishes to the death.

I have seen photography of the Death camps in Germany, as have i seen photography of The Craters left behind by the nuclear explosions.
Back then, it was quite difficult to modify or forge photographs, unlike it is nowadays, where it takes a sharp eye or experience.

Your lost on your reply to me, You should read my post then think about that one lol. I never said jack about the war in Europe.

I still stand by the fact that nothing has been learnt from this, however - that the destruction of so many lives served nothing but the American Establishment's interests.

Nah, it's okay - my position is known now as a guy who would try to protect life at all costs; i can't make a cohesive arguement now without people looking at me and thinking as such.
EDIT:
I see the importance of what you're saying Intrepid, that's why i'm saying we should have nuked somewhere else in japan that wasn't so populated - i do not dispute the fact that the nukes ended the war.
