FDR signed the order to build the 1st nuke in Oct. 1941... no he did not live to fulfill his dream... missed it by a few months. Died in April. Probably while screwing his mistress...
He developed the plan to stop the Japanese industrial expansion, and potential conquering of China and all it's resources. He attacked Japan financially by cutting off all their oil, and seizing their assetts.
He developed the strategy to to goad Japan into attacking the US (pearl harbor) in Dec. 1941
They had little choice, as FDR committed financial warfare to stop Japan's industrial pursuits of raw materials. Not unlike what is being done to Iran... albeit.. Japan invaded China... whereas Iran has invaded no one.
Why i say it was FDR is this:
The US intel had already broken the Japanese code, and news of the pending attack.. He let it happen in order to motivate the US population into fight the Japanese. There was much documentation at his zeal to know what a nuke would do to thousands of people,,,, he hated the Japs..
As soon as the bomb was ready, it was used. 4 months after FDR's death...
Surely Truman was on board, and carried out FDR's dream. He was a horrible person.
This is actually fairly close to the version of history presented by the Japanese at the Yūshūkan War Museum in Tokyo... Except they claim the war in China was just a humanitarian effort... Yup, those poor innocent Japanese just got goaded into war by the big bad US.

WHAT is up with the right's obsession with drones? Doess killing with manned aircraft somehow produce different deaths? Is it you can't stand war that keeps Americans out of harm's way or do you resent drones because they funnel less $$$ to your cherished sacred cow, the MIC than drones do?

He also bombed two other countries without Congressional approval, how many people did THAT kill? As if you really give a rat's ass. And he manipulated the end of the Vietnam war to benefit his reelection campaign as well as not having the backbone to face the charges that would surely have been brought against him, resigning like the Chickens**t POS he was instead. But of course you righties conveniently ignore those acts.

Clearly the war with China was expansionist empire pursuit... but it was their neck of the woods. And we clearly did not want them to have the upper exploitation hand... it took Nixon for that.
Most leaders are Satan Spawn, being puppeted by Greed and Power hungry Oligarch's....
The innocence is always the young men that are sent to procure the resources for the jack wads...
in the guise of honor, patriotism, blah, blah,.....
The other innocence is the millions of Men, Women and children that get caught in the cross hairs of a leaders orders.
They will truly be the ones' to burn in hell, and then be evaporated to nothingness in the end. As if they never existed.
Barack Obama continues to lie about the previously lies he's told about his signature achievement, Obamacare while millions of Americans are losing their health insurance or being faced with huge increases in their premiums.
It begs the question....is he the most despicable, loathsome individual in the history of American politics?
The only other person I can think that even comes close is Woodrow Wilson. It is a well known fact that in addition to being our first fascist president Woodrow Wilson was also a pedophile who had members of his inner circle abduct young boys for him to have his way with. The historians have done a very good job at hiding this but it was well known in his day and those that seek the truth about it today can discover it with a little bit of exploration.
A student of Nixon history would know that Obama has far surpassed Nixon in the despicable President department. The two aren't even close.
