No matter - I'll be brief.
Doc - your quotes are interesting. Can you give me a full reference - I need to know the dates and references. Eg; Churchill believing Japan defeated doesn't mean much. I think you know your quote does not describe Churchill objecting to the drop. It would be easier to respect your line of argument if you first made clear Churchill supported the bombing.
Trog - do you think telling lies is bad? |
I thought it was already clear that Churchill supported the bombing, so I didn't reiterate. He merely admitted that Japan was defeated before the bombing, not that he was against it.
All of the quotes are from a collection of essays and writings called "
Hiroshima's Shadow: Writings on the Denial of History and the Smithsonian Controversy." A worthy read for anyone interested in revisionist American history.
