Maybe because we fear for a product of an educational system that
fails to make distinctions between National Socialists (Nazi) in
Germany and the different political system in Japan.

Actually, the people who complain about us nuking the Japs, haven't
been alive as long as those Japs have been dead. It's a done deal, get
over it.

I'm of the opinion that the US needs to abandon nuclear weapons, as we
don't have the guts to use them, and keeping 1500 nukes on alert every day
could be better spent on more important things (like another Army Infantry
Division).
