There is no question that, even after the incineration of its cities, Japan still had the capacity to inflict unacceptable losses upon an invadingarmy.
But this is the burden of creating this kind of work, a burden that perhaps comes from the dualistic life I have lived as an American citizen growing up in the comfort of suburbia while family members in Afghanistan fought, died and, yes, killed in their battle against an invadingarmy.
