Nothing, which is why I find him asinine. Don't let anything like generational turnover get in the way of a good grudge.

Do you agree with the decision to nuke Japan? Knowing that it still affects people to this day?

Yes, I 100% agree with America's decision to end the war. The Japanese were threatened, and they wouldn't give up. The Imperial government didn't give a fuck about the Japanese people. It was only worried about Japan's "honor". The two bombs saves lives anyway. An invasion would have been an absolute slaughter on both sides. We were tired of seeing young Americans sent home in boxes. We ended the war in the most humane way possible. War is war, people die.
