Never forget

WHich is nothing compared to how many chinese civilians were sadistically tortured and murdered

They committed atrocities not only against China but also against countless people in Asia and the world. They were punished as perpetrators, not victims.

Bro, they were still just civilians. Civlilians shouldn't be targeted, no matter what side they're on.@@morae223

​@@wouter-jansentell that to Vlad

I wouldn't consider Korea and china small countries. Both of which the Japanese empire demolished

​@@stephendasher8991 china demolished by japan? It was stalemate ffs, the japs military stuck in china, in a war they could not win. The chinese were committed, if japan wants to conquer china they would have to killed every single one of chinese people, that's the measure of their resolve.

Wow does that give the superpowers permission to kill innocent people that way?

@@elana274 they killed many of our people, nuking Japan was the only way to save allied lives whilst ending the war as soon as possible

It was Nagasaki, no?

@@Quinefan I'm guessing the poster means the atomic bombings in general.

Decision at Nagasaki: The Mission That Almost Failed by Fred J. Olivi is an excellent read.

Im from school knowledge

Havent even watched it. Influenced by actual documentaries and debunked footages of war , not Hollywood.

they ran out of bombs, it's not easy to manufacture in the first place.

@@madartzgraphics2019 they didnt tho

​@@madartzgraphics2019they had a third ready to go. It became the demon core.

Imagine ur in bataan death march, no food , no water , and a minimum of 5 days which where u surender and beatin.. after u reach the pow camps was much worse

Does it look like we really have to imagine genius. We can just watch this video just like you just did. Thank you for all of your insight.

​@@stevearpey9241ong ppl are fucking slow

Thanks for watching! Glad you found it interesting.

The MK-3 (fat man) was equivalent to about 20-23 kilotons of TNT, and had an effective blast radius of just over a mile (effective as in severe damage to structures). Significantly lighter damage extended out to around three miles, and the thermal pulse of the weapon to about one and a half miles. The fireball was about 1000 feet across, meaning anything standing within 500 feet of the bomb when it went off was effectively vaporized. The MK-1 (little boy) that was dropped on Hiroshima was 15 kilotons, a bit smaller.

One thing to add: Nagasaki was dropped in a valley, Hiroshima in open territory. So while more powerful, it killed fewer people. BTW, the Tokyo firebombing of March 1945 killed more people.

@buzaldrin8086 The thing is that they also did all that damage from a single bomb. Where the Tokyo fire bombings took place over the course of weeks. Even today if a single blast killed that many people it would still be a huge deal. Even though little boy had a little bit less kt I feel like it did more damage mostly because of the intense firestorm it created. Like it must have been hell on earth to witness that nuclear firestorm where even the black rain was lethal to drink. The only hope for water was the river (unless they had some in jugs or possible plumbing for a shower? But doubt that was a popular thing) it must be like a real life horror movie to have experienced that.

@@fishy0929 River? Read the stories of the survivors.

Crazy

You’re delusional. First the only way they defeated the U.S. military at Pearl Harbor was by a sneak attack. Next the U.S. military defeated the Japanese military in every battle that was fought during the island hoping campaigns through conventional warfare, sometimes even when they were outnumbered. Yes Japan had a formidable military but, they were only second best.

Not you trying to insinuate that the Japanese had a better army…

Has Japan learned from its history.

But from whom? No Atomic was invented at that time yet.

​@jacknguyen5677 it was certainly an airburst from an incoming meteor

James Bedu Kodjo Graham --- I wasnt born before those events but America had no right to bomb those people at all. Japan would have surrendered by Septemtre 1945 of that year you know. Wayne Patterson --- Your comment is a lie as demonstrated by the public record. The military officers in the Japanese war faction of the Supreme Council for the Direction of the War never made a voluntary acceptance of the Allied terms of surrender. Emperor Hirohito had to order them to surrender. Even then the disobedient commands refused to obey the Emperor's orders for awhile. Emperor Hirohito had to dispatch members of the royal family to each of the disobedient commands and demand their surrenders to the Allies. There were three failed coup d'etat attempts by the Japanese military officers to stop the Emperor's efforts to declare Japan's surrender. Even after the formal 2 September 1945 the Japanese military leadership contemplated and discussed their respective proposed plans to remove Emperor Hirohito from the throne, and replace him with his militarist uncle, General Prince Asaki, and resume hostilities by using biological weapons of mass destruction against the Allied occupiers and the Japanese people. Their schemes to resume the war continued from August 1945 into at least December 1945 or longer. Minister of War General Korechika Anami noted on 10 August 1945 in the meeting of the Supreme Council for the Direction of the War how he would rather see Japan and its people be annihilated rather than surrender, and he said, "Would it not be wondrous for this whole nation to be destroyed like a beautiful flower?" You should retract your false accusation and spend less time playing fantasy "Nintendo and Sega Games."

I don't have access to the public record because I am a Ghanaian Citizen with limited access to the Japanese Public records. In 2023 I am just responding to the review as a former history major. Atomic bombs are still a threat to all humankind. We all seek a more peaceful world without weapons or Bioweapons. As an African I know what that feels like in a warring faction of West Africa.

@@jamesbedukodjograham5508 --- I don't have access to the public record because I am a Ghanaian Citizen with limited access to the Japanese Public records. Wayne Patterson --- Many of the relevant Japanese and Allied records are available online in addition to those in their respective archives. The Japanese Government ordered the destruction of most of their government records, so most of them were destroyed between 15 August 1945 and December 1945 to prevent their discovery by the Allied occupation forces. Nonetheless, some of the Japanese custodians disobeyed orders and preserved some records for their own personal use or other reasons. Some of those documents came into the possession of the American occupation forces and have been preserved in the U.S. archives. Some of those records are available online from various Websites. . James Bedu Kodjo Graham --- In 2023 I am just responding to the review as a former history major. Atomic bombs are still a threat to all humankind. Wayne Patterson --- Then you should make yourself aware of why the Allies (Britain, Canada, and Free French asked the Roosevelt Administration of the United States in December 1941 to assume control of their own early atomic bomb research to produce atomic bombs before Germany and Japan could succeed in producing their own atomic bombs. You should be aware of how Japan began its plans to produce atomic bombs for use to conquer the Allies, and they had at least three research projects who made such efforts. The Roosevelt Administration approved the Allies' requests and began the MANHATTAN PROJECT in January 1942 with the promise to use the atomic bombs to deter the Axis use of nuclear weapons of mass destruction, biological weapons of mass destruction, and chemical weapons of mass destruction. The Roosevelt Administration and U.S. Government also made the commitment to use the nuclear research in a future Atoms for Peace after the end of the war while also seeking in 1946-1947 an international agreement to prohibit any further nuclear weapons research, development, production, possession, and use. The United States immediately began a unilateral and partial nuclear weapons disarmament upon the 2 September 1945 surrender as an act of good faith. Unfortunately, the Soviet Union (Russians) refused to negotiate such an agreement to ban nuclear weapons, so the other nations threatened by the Soviet Communists also refused to enter into an agreement to ban nuclear weapons. Yes, nuclear weapons are still "a threat to all humankind." Yet, nuclear weapons of mass destruction are far less of "a threat to all humankind" than the release of biological weapons of mass destruction. It was the Japanese use of biological weapons of mass destruction which killed 500,000 people in China. Japan repeatedly considered using biological weapons of mass destruction against the Americans in the Philippines on Luzon in 1941-1942 and several other occasions. The weapons were not used because of surrenders occurred before the attacks could begin. In 1942 the I-400 Class of submarines were developed for the purpose of delivering future Japanese atomic bombs against Allied cities: e.g. Manhattan Island, New York City. By 1945 it became apparent that the Japanese atomic bombs would not become available before the end of the war, so the I-400 Class submarines were prepared to conduct OPERATION PX, a plan to deliver biological weapons of mass destruction in a series of attacks against American cities scheduled to begin on 22 September 1945. The potential death toll could have been only a few thousand Americans in a best case scenario or hundreds of millions of people worldwide in a worst case scenario where the weaponized Bubonic Plague and pandemic got out of control. It was most likely that the Japanese biological attacks would have killed hundreds of thousands of people to millions of people. The American use of the atomic bombs was due in part to the need to forestall any Japanese plans to use its weapons of mass destruction against the Allied cities. Note also that the nuclear weapons were capable of destroying biological agents by the tremendous heat to the nuclear fireball. One of Japan's key atomic bomb research laboratories were destroyed during the firebombing of Tokyo. It was because nuclear weapons are a "threat to all humankind" that it became a military necessity to produce them and use the safer nuclear weapons of mass destruction against the Axis threats and then urge a postwar prohibition against all such weapons. James Bedu Kodjo Graham --- We all seek a more peaceful world without weapons or Bioweapons. Wayne Patterson --- Unfortunately, the Soviet Union, People's Republic of China, North Korea, and others cannot be trusted to genuinely comply with the disarmament agreements. The Soviets-Russians, Syrians, Iranians, and others always breach such agreements. The Russians promised to exchange a Russian guarantee for the Ukraine's existing borders in the Budapest Agreement 1994 in exchange for the Ukraine's share of the former Soviet Union's nuclear weapons stockpile. We can all see how trustworthy Russia was in that exchange of nuclear weapons and the Ukraine's disarmament. Until the international community prevails upon those regimes to stop threatening the rest of the world with those weapons of mass destruction, it will be necessary for the United States and other states to safeguard the world community as best they can until such time as universal disarmament can be achieved and maintained without breaches by those bad actors.

Japan was not going to surrender if the nukes were not dropped heck they didnt even surrender after the 1st many more would have died if the u.s. was forced to do a full scale invasion

Where are you alive during these times ? Shut your mouth. Pointing the finger back at history. No one is innocent

Yeah, the whole point of dropping an atomic bomb was to teach "innocent people" a lesson. I think you really should take 5 mins to educate yourself on 1940's imperial Japan. (I'm sure there are a lot of Chinese who have an opinion.)

@@ericbrophy8142 maybe educate yourself and see the ratio of military targets vs civilians destroyed . 🤡

At the end of the day, lives were saved.. and not just American lives. Had it not been for WW2, humanity would have learned the power of much more powerful nuclear bombs during the Cold War and that would have been FAR WORSE.

@@ericbrophy8142 It`s true that a lot of innocent Chinese people were raped and killed mercilessly by Imperial Army. But it does not justify killing of innocent Japanese civilians in Hiroshima and Nagasaki because they were not responsible for war crimes which Imperial Army committed in China and other parts of Asia. Two wrongs do not make a right.

The color film of the fireball and mushroom cloud is from Nagasaki. The Hiroshima film is very grainy and black and white.

Это верно. Это также годовщина страны, которая воспользовалась этим событием, нарушила правила и без необходимости украла японскую территорию.
