Subject: Re: scruples for nations From: Jason Hudgins <thanatos-AT-incantations.net> Date: 03 Jul 2002 14:05:07 -0400 Actually, Jason, I have to go with him on this one. Where Russia DID ally with the US during the war, the ultra-imperialism of Russia during the postwar period prompted the bomb-drop too. 'Fact, some historians argue even more so than the Japanese threat. He's not speculating but introducing the controversy and there is a variety of material on the subject. Ricky that's cool if you want to disagree, but if stalin encouraged truman to drop the bombs, then i maintain it is contradictory to say that this was a "show of force" directed towards russia. --jason ________________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: Click Here --- from list nietzsche-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu --- --- from list nietzsche-AT-lists.village.virginia.edu ---
