I have advocated no such methods, I was just pointing out that from the US military perspective, the atomic bombs were not necessary. all of the military big whigs new the success of fire bombing (which is conventional in the sense of it takes a normal bombing raid to drop them, though I am well aware that technically speaking, they are not conventional explosives such as a 500lb bomb, but thanks for clarifying through sarcastic implications...) and they dropped A-bombs for different reasons, and apparantly they have convinced you all that it was the best idea....
now I wonder who all the real monsters are out there?
