The recent anniversary of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings has brought forth a plethora of historical studies. Most of these are extensively footnoted. It is quite apparent that there was a tremendous amount of study, discussion and argument on how and if to proceed as well there should have been. No less was done here as to the whys and why nots of dealing with Afghanistan and Iraq.
