I think what is being missed here is that Hitler is worse because he started WWII, which resulted in people being killed everywhere and much fighting that would not otherwise have happened. It is possible that without that, the Japanese would not have been bold enough to attack Pearl Harbor and the Soviets would not have had control over East Germany for all those years, cold war would have been different too.

Hitler didn't have much at all to do with the Pacific. The US wasn't involved in the European war at all when Japan bombed PH, and Japan was already well on their way to taking over the East Pacific. They attacked PH because they were worried the US would step in on them, so they wanted to cripple the US Navy before they got their asses in gear.

But yeah, it was because of Hitler that the Soviet Union was so worried and industrialized so quickly. It forced the Soviet Union to become paranoid of the west, and well, that led to a bunch of crap too.
 
I say George W. Bush too. If you don't agree with my opinion and feel that I shouldn't say it then I already live in a communist country. 🙂

Who was the president of the United States when a nuclear bomb hit Hiroshima?? You got your answer here 🙂

May I suggest you study your history a bit more.

In the long run, that saved a LOT of lives on BOTH sides.

Plus, we only beat the others to it. Both Germany AND Japan were working on a atomic bomb and either one of them would have used it and used it MORE and with more loss of live than was taken when the U.S. used it....

EDIT: Plus japan was actively using germ warfare in China and TRIED to use it on the U.S. and they had plans to unleash "Dirty Bombs" in the U.S.


Im not trying to attack your country actions with this move,but the men who took this decision, tu unleash this weapon, is the worst man our world know.My god, how many lives he took out in an second?

This move, yeah, probably save a lot of lives from both side,and was probablynecessary to stop the war.But that doesnt change that a human being on this planet destroy too many lives in an instant.

Sure it changes it. If he knew that the bomb existed and did NOT use it it would be a decision that alot more people would have died from.

I thought the Bush comments were the most retarded thing I had read today. You proved me wrong.

Except for the fact that no one thinks you shouldn't say your opinion and we welcome it, but care to back it up? Why exactly do you think Bush is worse than Hilter, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot etc? Whom exactly are the millions that Bush has killed (I realize that thousands upon thousands of deaths can be attributed to Bush, but these other people have millions of deaths to their name). I'm not saying Bush is a good guy, but you people who voted for the dub care to back up your opinions?
