  1. 43:04 ok dude, yes we could have avoided an atomic weapon. It was widely believed that the Japanese would NOT stop fighting regardless of who was winning. For the US to obtain victory the only other option would have been a boots-on-the-ground invasion. Had that happened the number of deaths, on both sides, could have been in the millions. I’m not saying it was “right”, but I do think it was the only viable option left on the table. That being said, I do wish the bomb never needed to be used, but unless you’ve got a better suggestion and a time machine - not much to be done.

  2. It’s funny that there’s a warning on this but the same documentary on one of the sister-channels does not lol

  3. I also think it’s easy to forget just how horrible American POW’s were treated in the pacific. It was awful. It was probably very close to what the Jewish people faced in concentration camps.
