    In America, we proved we could blow away entire cities with fat boy bombs - we practically decimated Hiroshima and Nagasaki. I think we definitely can and should do that again by all means.

    We used to be courageous enough to hurt our enemies and blow them out of existence. We need to return to those times again.

    That was only United States, not America as a whole. I would like people not to blame other countries or a whole continent for the things United States did.
