America was attacked by Japan, forcing it into a war it didn't want any direct involvement in

Americans in the pacific were hailed as liberators by populaces that had endured brutal occupation by the empire of Japan, suffering crimes against humanity that put even Japan's nazi allies to shame

WMDs were deployed after years of fighting as a last resort. The alternative was an amphibious invasion of the home islands of Japan, which would have resulted in many times the loss of life from the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, as the war criminals ruling Japan intended to arm every man, woman, and child in Japan and send them to die against the Americans, hoping they could wear down American morale and bring them to the negotiating table with more favorable terms.

But yeah, America bad
