Last post to Albert, who doesn't appear to understand what people post.

PTFA, I have already said civilian casualties are unavoidable. There is a difference between civilians that were in the way and targeting civilians. Hell, you have said it yourself.
In the case of the A-Bomb, when deciding on which city to bomb, how much destruction it would wreck on the city itself, and thus civilian casualties, was a prime factor.
If you even read the list of cities I posted you would have noticed there were better or equal military targets that weren't located in such a populated area, but were considered lower grade targets.
