First Into Nagasaki....

.
.
The dropping of the atomic bomb during WW-II, has been written about and studied so much.

For Americans and British, Hiroshimi and Nagasaki shows we were superior in culture by being the first to build the bomb.. I agree that this is true then, and I believe is true even now.

For Japaneses, Hiroshimi and Nagasaki, is "in your face" reminder on Japan's painfully evil past.

Why is George Weller, claims he was the first reporter to get in and see Nagasaki. What about Japanese reporters who lived their and survived the dropping of the bomb ! George Weller was the first American/European Allied soldier with a camera, to see Nagasaki.

It doesn't show that our culture was superior (A very imperialistic and 19th century statement in my opinion) just our scientific knowledge was superior.
How is American and British culture superior to Japanese culture? After all they have a lower crime rate and more respect towards authority and elders than the UK and the US

If you are so superior could you at least get your spelling right? And while you're at it, could you also stop saying the stupidest things? Sorry, I never attack people personally, but in this case I have to make an exception.
