On this Hiroshima Day remember again that the atomic bombing of Japan was entirely done without justification and as a means to display American military might than actually cause Japan to surrender
“It is my opinion that the use of this barbarous weapon at Hiroshima and Nagasaki was of no material assistance in our war against Japan. The Japanese were already defeated and ready to surrender because of the effective sea blockade and the successful bombing with conventional weapons.” (William D. Leahy, I Was There, pg. 441).
