[1] Hiroshima and Nagasaki were definitely not nuked.
That's all completely sound. The traditional material on nukes is rubbish.

1. Then just what did a couple of B-29s do to each city?
2. I assume you can provide some evidence of this?
3. There have been no recent demonstrations of Roman legions. Therefore the Roman Empire never existed.
[1]Alright, you go live there, then.
@KannaTHEM ?
"[1]Alright, you go live there, then."
Actually, the radiation there is not significantly above the background, since the bombs exploded high in the air - instead of contaminating the soil, the fall-out rose into higher athmospheric layers and was spread too thin to take actual effect. Indeed, Hiroshima has since grown above one million inhabitants.
[1] Citation seriously fucking needed. Before the "supposed" bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan was ready to defend their mainland to the death and showed no signs of surrendering. After the second bomb was dropped, they surrendered almost immediately. Are you saying that both the USA and Japan were in on the conspiracy?
[2] What about all the eyewitness accounts, from both Japanese people in the cities and the pilots who carried out the bombings? Aerial footage taken right after the bombings showing the entire cities destroyed? Birth defects caused by exposure to radiation? The fact that Hiroshima was completely rebuilt after the bombing and looks nothing like it did before? Above-normal radiation levels where the bombs were dropped? Wreckage from the blasts present at memorials? Do you even know the sheer amount of things that would have to be faked, and the number of people "in" on the conspiracy to make this work?
[3] You can find tons of videos of nuclear tests being carried out not just by the United States, but by the USSR and several European nations. Are you saying every major country in the world during the Cold War was in on the conspiracy?
There was a time before nuclear fallout was well understood, that the Los Alamos test range near Las Vegas was, I kid you not, a tourist attraction.
People would literally sit at prepared bleachers to watch the tests. You can buy a pair of souvenir sunglasses on ebay from the tourist area.
Define "recent". Every so often, we hear about nuclear tests. And I'm guessing that Nuclear Test Ban Treaty was all a smokescreen? The footage of the Trinity explosion was faked, and the site staged for future tourists?
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
