In Response To: Re: Why I Hate Glasslands (ZackDark)


: It's late, so I stopped reading after he clearly defended the nuclear
: bombings while refusing to compare them to the Spartan Program using the
: same reasons you did...

: In fact, I had no idea you guys thought of those as excusable.

*headdesk*

Why AREN'T they excusable? Penny for your thoughts?

: How do schools
: usually teach that part of WWII there? (No mean to disrespect or go moral
: gung-ho on you guys. I'm honestly curious now.)

We talked about it. My AP class had a debate over it. A later class pointed out how our understanding of the ramifications of nuclear war kept WWIII off the table.

At the time, dropping the nuclear bomb wasn't thought to be meaningfully different from the current bombing campaigns. From what I see, critics of the atomic bombings expect Truman to have operated on information he didn't have.

: I'll come back to this post after tomorrow and read the rest. By the looks of
: your last paragraph, it's probably a good read.

Eh, I think I'll go for the Cliff's Notes of the Cliff's Notes. = )
