faqi,

the official estimates stated that 2 million allied lives would be lost if the japanese home lands were invaded, not to speak of the millions of japanese that would have perished. in the combined bombings of hiroshima and nagasaki, 145,000 people were killed. so the bomb. no matter how terrible it was, probably saved lives. and when the war was over we helped japan become the economic powerhouse it is today.

please know what you are talking about when you type in. we deal in real facts, not moslem facts.

thank you
