So you would have preferred we invade the Japanese mainland? Estimates at the time put Japanese casualities around 3-5 million, and American csualities at 1 million.
You would have preferred that then mingo?
Sheesh! Learn some f'ing history will ya?

Just poking at you. Besides they were civilian cities after all. Bombs dont really care if you are a soldier or a toddler.
Mainland Japan would have never been invaded, there was no reason. Japan was already in the process of surrendering. m not sure where you get the American casualties at over 1 million, maybe you were reading the papers in 1945...? The real number has been put at 50,000 American deaths to take over enough of japan to surrender. http://articles.latimes.com/2005/aug/05/opinion/oe-bird5 a quick google search would have cleared that up.
So educate thyself before thee wreck thyself.
