@mehdirhasan @JohnRentoul stop being silly. I'm simply pointing out that the claim is false because sometimes bombing DOES win wars.

@JuliaHB1@JohnRentoul and your example was a nuclear strike which followed four years of intense ground war. Poor. -
@mehdirhasan@JohnRentoul sigh. And it was the bombing, not the ground troops, that WON the war, was it not? - 1 more reply

@JuliaHB1@mehdirhasan@JohnRentoul Korean and Vietnam prove you're wrong JHB. -
@frankiescar in what way? I wasn't claiming that bombing wins all wars, merely that it has won some wars. Try to keep up. -
@JuliaHB1 Right, it didn't win WW2 the Japanese were due to and would have surrendered anyway, name one then, i'll start the clock......... -
@frankiescar you are completely wrong -
@JuliaHB1 lol So you can't then, I don't need to keep up YOU need to read some history, massively disappointed in your answer JHB -
@frankiescar the Japanese took days to surrender even after Nagasaki. You are an idiot. -
@JuliaHB1 It. Couldn't have been they were concerned about their citizens at all then? Sometimes your arrogance turns into stupidity JHB -
@frankiescar not sure you know much about Japan's ruling elite at that time. - 5 more replies
