Atomic Bombs from WWII

Lars:

You may be right. I think we did in fact fly overhead and give pieces of paper stating what was happening. We did do something, but it was no where near what needed to happen. I may be wrong though, but I did say I needed to do some research.

Didn't happen. The US might threatened massive retaliation if they didn't capitulate soon. And propaganda leaflets were dropped all the time.

But a clear warning that said "We bes nuking Hiroshima soon, if you want to live flee!" never happened.

A conventional bombing raid would have killed just as many if not even more people, so I don't see why you're complaining.

The only difference is that many more of the casualties were caused by radiation, but that was relatively short lived. People live right on top of where both nuclear bombs were dropped, and there is a negligible difference in cancer rates.
