Alright, first of all thank you for those links, i thought those were
interesting statistics. And i apologize for overlooking the fact
which country you were from, for i tend to skim over the posts
rapidly. However, since you are from a country that contributed to
the war effort, than you should understand how difficult it is too
see your countrymen dying in war, correct? Since you believe the US
weren't entilted to do what they did to japan, then what would your
solution have been? I truly am curious, i am not trying to be arrogant.
For a full scale invasion would have killed hundreds of thousands more
lives, including both australian and american, correct? So you feel
entilted saying saving the innocent japanese lives is better than
ending the war and thus saving hundreds of thousands of australian and american lives? Yes, war is gruesome, and i do wish there
was no place in this world for war. However, what would have happend
if we did nothing to stop germany and japan, but wait how could we know
since it didn't happen, right? Even though it didn't happen i feel i can
honestly say we would be living worse off world if that had happen, and that
we would have less freedom. If LastOutfiniteVoiceEternal is right, who helped
me interpret your previos words, whom i thank, than you believe in general "all death by combat murder is absurd and in accordance with that
ideaology then every war that has ever been started was a misuse of power and thus no death by combat murder is justified." Correct?
I would love to see a world with no wars, but since that wasn't the case and still isn't a case, then that would be an arguement based on wishful
thinking and a world that doesn't exist. Therefore that shouldn't apply to this situation. That is if i take your statement " i dont care about
US lives, but lives" was based on this general premisis. Soo, i ask, what would have been better? Since you believe all death caused by war is
unjustified, how would you have stopped the war that wasnt started by us without killing anyone and thus following your belief?
