Hiroshima bombing a necessity
August 6th marks the 65th anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima. Columnist Brent Budowsky from The Hill brings us the historical context and American perspective. He argued that the US felt the bombing was a necessity to bring an end to the war and prevent a full scale land and air invasion of Japan. Far more Japanese and Americans would have died if the A-bomb had not been dropped, he said. Budowsky said the loss of life is always regrettable, just as it was at Pearl Harbor and across Asia.
