The regime in charge of Japan was cruel and needed to be stopped but the murder of civilians is never justified. How many military personnel actually died in those strikes? I'm guessing not many. It was a bloodthirsty and vengeful act that wasn't done in the interest of ending a war quickly but done in bloodlust.

It's indefensible.
