So based on your rebuttal should the usa not suffer for the slave trade it perpetuated, the genocide of 90% of north american first nations, etc?

Truman used the atomic bombs not to retaliate for any of those atrocities commited by imperial japan but to save potential US soldiers' lives from invading Japan and to show the world (ussr) the USA's new super weapon...it was a dispay of force
