‘US government documents admit that the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was not necessary to end WWII. Japan was on the verge of surrendering. The nuclear attack was the first strike in Washington’s Cold War on the Soviet Union. Ben Norton reviews the historical record.’
Honestly it doesn’t take any convincing to make Americans support atrocities. The US can just do them and Americans will invent justifications all on their own.
I think it’s because of patriotism “oh the US did this atrocity? Well I am usonian and I did nothing wrong, therefore the atrocity was ok”.
