Israel nuked South Africa in 1979. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vela_incident
FUN FACT- Mordechai Vanunu the scientist who whistleblew this incident tried to disclose this information to Ghislaine Maxwell's father.
The owner of a UK news paper. Once this was disclosed Vanunu was kidnapped and shipped to Israel to serve a prison sentence for sedition.
Which goes into the deep conspiracy that Robert Maxwell, Ghislaine, and Epstein, were all Israeli intel assets working abroad.
But hey, not many people are open to educating themselves on this subject for some reason. It's pretty sus.
But ya, our main ally in the ME likes to kidnap it's own citizens on foreign soil and try them behind doors. Sounds like fascism to me.

Nuked tactically. Several countries nuked themselves.
QuicksilverRaven
The list gets longer when you add countries affected by radioactive fallout. Most of Europe at the very least because of Chernobyl.
GnomeDeGuerre
I hope that the US apologizes for that slaughter.
thundercactus
Makes about as much sense as apologizing to Germany for strategic bombing in WW2.
No, Japan was ready to surrender, the nukes were just extra. Also, have you studied the firestorms?
Yes, and yes. They were ready to surrender with terms. The atomic bombs forced their unconditional surrender.
As I understand it, agreed. Dresden is something where the benefit don't seem to merit the slaughter of civillians. Hamburg was horrible.
The second atomic bomb was arguably unnecessary, but the argument can be made the Japanese failed to see the writing on the wall...

Boy, I sure am glad people don't disingenuously tell that story without addressing that the blast was triple the intended power because the
lithium-7 was mistakenly believed to be inert. Imagine a world where people leave that out and just paint the US as not giving a fuck about
the lives of foreigners. It's a good thing nobody's a dickbag that leaves out crucial context!

Very true. Similar generally-ignored wrong-doing by most nuclear states to get/have/use their test sites. Look up how John Wayne died.
