Was the US justified in dropping the Atom Bombs?
Bombs dropped on cities, and you asked wether it was justified. And then you have the guts to make this thread?

Yea i do, you dont seem to be able to comprehend the difference between posting an objective question about an event that happened 60 years ago, and calling for the deaths of thousands today.

The poster i mentioned said that the US deserves another attack today. He then goes on to mention targets he would like to see destroyed, and later in the post discusses the people he would enjoy seeing killed.

This goes beyond critical analysis. This is not a distant group of observers struggling with the moral implications of an action. There were plenty of ways to make his point without resorting to hate speech. No one who supports the iraq war has ever said that innocent iraqis deserve to be killed by terrorist attacks.

I did not mean for this post to be a criticism of Gregoshi's actions in the thread, and its not. I only wanted the mod community to be aware that justifying and calling for attacks against americans is deeply offensive to some .org members. More offensive than curse words or personal threats.

If this is the case, that we can call for attacks against a country, i hope the practice does not spread to other nations. I think there are many on this forum who would call for the deaths of isrealis, palastinians, muslums, jews, and christians, but do not because of a certain unspoken rule that makes that behaviour unacceptable.

That rule was tested today.. No one ever cares if the butt of an insult, or apparently hate speech, is america.. but what happens if people start advocating the killing of Jews and justifying their genocide-ridden past? Mabey that will get a closer look by the admin..
