Read the history of what the japs did to us here in the Philippines, then you would think they deserved a 3rd nuke.

How can you say something like that? How are the civilians and children living in Hiroshima accountable for what soldiers in the Philippines did?

I wonder if any of you would change your mind if you were actually an American fighting in the pacific. If you were one of the thousands that died at Iwo Jima or Pearl Harbor. If your father's life was on the line fighting a war that started when the Japanese bombed a neutral country. Then see what you say when you're given the option to end the war in a matter of days, have your children or parents return home to you, end American bloodshed in the pacific etc. Truman should have been like, "Hell no, we're in this for the long haul. We're going to fight and die until Japan is ready to surrender. Winning this war without losing anymore American life is great, but not if I'm going to lose the respect of an internet gaming forum 60 years from now."

As Hotbid, Frolix, Mensrea and more have already said it did not save lives. Anyone who has read anything on the subject that is not american highschool text books will tell you so.
The bombs were dropped because they needed testing under real conditions and since you were luckily still officially at war that was the perfect excuse.
I must admit _I_ as a Swede was 100% convinced the bombings were justified right until I started doing some reading on the subject. _That_ is how succesful the propaganda stunt was.
And you lost the respect of much, much more than a gaming forum.

So, how could ww2 have been avoided if the USA had any other policies?

Edit: Or are you pacifists saying that the USA should have totally stayed out of the war altogether and therefore we would today have a world still in chaos?

If the US just timed their nukes better to hit the peon lines, or even their tech, then the second nuke wouldn't be needed.
