Re: US didn't need to drop the atomic bomb on Japan
Gen. LeMay was against the use of the atomic bombs. He wanted to bring over all of the bombers that were no longer in use in Europe and add them to the ones in the Pacific. He would then drop Napalm all over Japan (even more than he had been) and burn them to the ground until they surrendered. Many thought that the atomic bombs caused fewer deaths and less damage than LeMay's plan. War is a bad thing and, as others on this post have stated, they should not have started this. "Those who live by the sword, die by the sword".
