Curious, what do they teach you about Japanese involvement in WW2 in your (presumably Japan's) education system?

The mothers and babies who were incinerated by American nukes weren't involved. Wanna go after the Japanese Army or government? Go for it. Don't murder babies and call it a good thing

Who is calling it a good thing? Nobody in this thread is celebrating the bombing. They are saying it was necessary or at least justified and they are more correct than you.
