Metodologia e o problema do valor - dica para pensar

Why Do I Love George Bush So Much?

Anthony, whenever someone says that it was okay to nuke tens of thousands of unarmed civilians to allegedly save a million lives of armed soldiers, I ask him two questions. The first was posed by Ralph Raico:
Let’s say the U.S. hadn’t yet developed the atomic bomb, so Truman sent in the U.S. Army with machine guns to shoot all of the civilians in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Would that have been okay?
If he responds “yes” (he may just be saying “yes” because he doesn’t want to admit that he is starting to see the heinous crime that Truman actually perpetrated in those two cities, regardless of the particular method used), I ask him this question that a friend of mine suggested to me after hearing Ralph’s question:
How about if the U.S. Army had rounded up all of the citizens in Hiroshima and Nagasaki and marched them into gas chambers. Would that have been okay?
If he still responds “yes,” it’s time to steer clear of him. It means that Ira Levin’s book The Boys from Brazil wasn’t fiction.
