When the terror bombing of German workers was going on, that was FDR's
war because he was the one making the decisions. When the
extermination bombings of Tokyo, Hiroshima, and Nagasaki were
perpetrated FDR was dead and buried. Those genocidal decisions were
made by Truman without seeking approval (which would of course have
been enthusiastic) from FDR's spirit. It was Truman's war, nobody
else's.

according to his need.
The capitalist creed: From each according to his gullibility, to each
according to his greed.
