9/11=terrorism?

The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki killed at least 100000 civilians. These were not military targets. Japan was a military dictarorship at the time, the people had not elected the people in power and had no authority to sway them in any way, and therefore not responsible for any action that regime took.
They were not warned that their homes would be bombed by a weapon that their shelters could not protect them from.
How would you defend this without justifying the attack on WTC on 9/11?

If he "did", then he was incorrect with devastating consequences. Being incorrect is wrong.

The Japanese military elite were extremists and wouldn't care if it meant putting their entire country through years of hell if it meant not surrenderring. Many of their major cities were being firebombed in an attempt to force a surrender, in fact even more were killed through firebombing than through both nukes put together. There was no choice in the matter for the US, if they gave the Japanese breathing space they would only use it to rebuild their military and continue the war.

You type too much, it's christmas. Osama bin laden used terrorism when political activism would have been much more effective. Osama acted like an idiot by ranting and raving instead of creating rational arguments against the US's crimes. Even if Osama bin laden's intentions were "good", sitting back and doing nothing would just invite more terrorism and thus the reaction would have to be as though Osama was a terrorist.
