There's verified evidence from several sources, actually. But that has nothing to do with anything.
Vengeance is natural, but that doesn't make it right. And this still has absolutely nothing to do with anything. The discussion is about the use of nuclear weapons being necessary or not, and it clearly wasn't.

yep ahhh. Justice is served... All those Japanese war criminals that were sought after and tried... 
your point of view is that it clearly wasn't necessary. I don't agree with you.
Seeing as the Russians also didn't agree since the whole eastern European set of countries they decided to keep for themselves as they marched toward the Allies. Yes, they willfully gave up those territories they marched through... I don't believe for a minute that they would have stopped if it weren't for the demonstrations of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
