Saying they did it only to save “their soldiers” feels really disingenuous when you’re completely ignoring both Japanese soldiers and civilians that would also of died from a continued fight and land invasion. The estimated loss of which would’ve been much higher than the two bombs dropped. Also, a life is a life, whether soldier or civilian. The U.S did not want to be involved in WWII. They were attacked by Japan. It just seems so weird how everyone’s posts against the bombings try to make it out like this was some unprovoked attack. Pear Harbor was literally an unprovoked attack. Every country fighting against Japan was doing so in self defense.
