At least any two-month old children killed by U.S. action were collateral damage, and not killed at the tip of laughing soldiers' bayonets (Nanking) or cruelly separated from their family and gassed (Auschwitz). From now on you need to provide specifics, not platitudes.

And if (note the if, as I believe we are still discussing this) the bombing was done for no other purpose than revenge, is there really a difference ?

While there are several good arguments for dropping the first bomb, can anybody come up with one single decent argument for the second.
