GUEST: I normally don't reply to unidentified flamers, but I'll make an exception.

You are referring to revisionist history which was brought about by the promoters who came up with the phrase McGrath is so fond of ...political correctness. If you don't think thousands of Japanese civilians as well as thousands of allied service men would have died as a result of an allied invasion of Japan, you are just plain wrong.

I remember very well when those bombs were dropped, and there was cheering in the streets. There was cheering on the troop ships heading for Japan also.
