Also I don't like the way that a lot of fellow Americans I know feel essentially zero guilt over nuking Japan not once but twice. Hell they practically take pride in it and will say stupid crap like "It ended the war and saved lives!! !"
To me using the atom bomb was opening the pandora's box for our apocalypse. And it was a terrible thing to do to the Japanese even if they were our enemies at the time.
The first country in history to unleash the power of a thousand suns upon humanity.

“If the radiance of a thousand suns
Were to burst at once into the sky
That would be like the splendour of the Mighty One...
I am become Death,
The shatterer of worlds.
