How was the US population physically damaged by bombs dropped on Japan?
And if they were indeed emotionally damaged for life, why haven't I heard
anything about Americans en masse running to psychiatrists, psychologists
and other therapists right after the war?
Come to think of it, I also haven't heard anything about Americans filing
lawsuits against the government, demanding millions in compensation for
emotional damage... <grin>
