    How does nuking multiple cities not contribute to the American war effort?

    Because the war effort was already over, sorry if that wasn’t clear.

    This was unnecessary. You can challenge the history and you can challenge me, but an ad hominem is neither and I don’t believe it was appropriate. Especially because you’re the one who has it backwards: The story taught in US schools is the alternate history.
