But only one of them has ever degraded its' own self-proclaimed civility sufficiently enough to actually used the things upon any population - which makes the followoing statement rather hypocritically unsavoury. Don't you think?

Ps. I'm not necessarily critizing the U.S. for the use of the bombs on Japan - but I am critizing its' high and mighty judgement of other nations that are trying to play "catch-up". The Americans think it is vindictive glory that the rest of the world wants blue-jeans and Coca-Cola but balk at it wanting to have a share in the balance of world power.
