Yeah, honestly, this seems kinda absurd.
1) Nuclear weapons have been used twice in human history, one right after the other, to end world war 2. Other than that, the closest we've had is nuclear tests and nuclear plant meltdowns (and even the later is rare).
2) There has never been any record of nuclear weapons used in Iraq. EVER. No soldiers in Iraq are suffering from the kind of radiation sickness that would have happened had anyone used nukes in Iraq.
3) You don't need to know the names of a bunch of different generals to have some understanding of what was going through Trumans' mind when he decided to use nuclear weapons. At best, I'm going to say it's something that's still highly debated today, but it's more than a little arrogant to claim you absolutely knew how to handle things.
4) OP sounds like a liberal version of Alex Jones: still a crazy conspiracy buff, but now you hate capitalism, too. That's judging not just from this post, but every post of his that I've seen.
5) Chairman Mao? Really? What on earth could possess you to choose someone like that for your profile pic?!? I mean, really, I'd respect you more if your profile pic was a Dalek!
