  1. Pearl Harbor attack: about 2,400 dead, mostly military
    Atomic bomb: 220,000 dead, innocent civilians
    It is too satanic to return the damage 100 times for the pride of the Americans

  2. Should have nuked Mount Fuji instead, potentially would have had the desired psychological effects without really having to kill any people.

  3. The city of was not cleared in an instant, and I want people overseas to know the hell the citizens of Hiroshima saw and faced under the mushroom cloud.

  4. Visited the nagasaki museum last september 8, 2023.

    I was fascinated by how the americans was ahead of everyone in ww2. But when I visited the museum, it really gave me a different perspective about how deadly and scary it is.

    Looking at it at a macro level, having a atomic bomb is somehow an achievement or something to be proud of, but in the micro level, the effects are really scary.

  5. After dropping the atomic bombs on Japan, the US conducted repeated nuclear tests at the Nevada Test Site. As a result, at least three-quarters of the US in North America is now severely radioactively contaminated in fact. The US government ignores this fact.

  6. There is a movie that shows what happened to people during and after the blast, some were obliterated, some had their skin and flesh melted off their bodies, some even died from radiation as well.

  7. how evil can human get?? why would they want to do something like this? horrifying😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫May Allah bless those lost souls 🤲🏼🥺🥺it breaks my heart

  8. To those who accept thing like that:
    Don't give up your humanity (which distinguishes you from animals) (even animals don't do such horrible things) just because you belong to the who committed it

  9. This all happened because Japan was hell bent on fighting to the last man. The U.S. was 100% justified in using extreme measures to force them to surrender and ultimately save lives by ending the war.

  10. If you know the atrocities that the Japanese Empire did in colonies and occupied territories, You won't feel sad about this video.

  11. Japan thought they were untouchable and let their pride blind them of what Americans were really capable of. The pearl harbour incident is what sealed their nations doom and cause a snowball chain of events that lead to these events
