The beginning of the end happened today. I have seen very little news on it today. They did have the standard peacenik group holding a peace vigil today  on the radio. I think I turned the interview off when they wanted us to apologize for nuking Japan. Whatever. I'd say dropping those 2 bombs was the best thing that ever happened to humanity.
1. We saved thousands of US and Japanese lives by ending the war w/o an invasion of the mainland.
2. Mankind has never used this weapon again, we know better.

We may have saved many, but we also killed many including civilians.
