"Japan has no allies her navy is nearly destroyed..." with sticks, they had no hope they were willing to do what ever it took even if they had to use sticks how do you expect them to have any power over U.S. soldiers with guns.

"we have great superiority through being the victim of her first sneak attack."

Lets make this a time for peace; there is always an alternative that does not end in casualties of innocent people that were already going to surrender. "At 8:15 am a little boy exploded instantly killing 80,000-140,000 people" ("The Story of Hiroshima." The Bomb Explodes. N.p., n.d. Web. 12 Feb. 2014.)
