It's evident you are too stupid to know how the Army derived those figures, shamman. Those numbers were extrapolated from losses already incurred fighting the Japanese on Leyte, Luzon, Iwo Jima and Okinawa, shamman, and the U.S. Army issued Purple Heart medals stamped out for "Operation Downfall" in Afghanistan, shamman.

Only here in America would you find a slew of ignorant shithead conservatives try to defend the one and only use of atomic bombs. If Japan dropped those bombs on LA and/or new york, I'd like to see you justify it as "not" a war crime.
