    But thats dishonest. It assumes that:

    1. The nuking of Japan was the reason they surrendered

    2. The nukes were gauranteed to make then surrender.

    Like would it still have been justified if Japan hadnt surrendered? Then youve committed an atrocity for no reason.

    Or what about if it was a different atrocity? Would tourturing a few hundred thousand Japanese to death be justified for the same reason?
