It's 60 years ago to the day since the Hiroshima bombing. The subject on the bombings still remains a relatively hot topic (was it justified). Personally I think the US was right to drop the bombs. Look at the alternative - A land invasion by Brithish and American troops of Japan (dispatches had been made for this, and both sides had comitted a large number of troops).
Any land invasion would have undoubtely been met with a wave of fanatics (suicide bombers etc) that would have killed a countless number of troops and prolonged the war for months
