Hiroshima and Nagasaki

With the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the U.S. DIRECTLY targeted civilians.  They also directly targeted civilians with the firebombing of Tokyo and Dresden.  The Japanese and German GOVERNMENTS committed many atrocities, but that in no way makes it moral or right for the U.S. to murder civilians in those countries.

You can make all the arguments you want about how murdering these civilians brought an early end to the war.  This does not change the fact that civilian men, women, and children were murdered.  When other people do this, we call them terrorists.  That label applies equally here.

I'm sure you cry yourself to sleep each night for that poor innocent janitor killed by airstrikes on nazi arms factories, but what about the 18 year olds bleeding to death on the beaches of normandy? What about your fellow communists who laid down their lives at Stalingrad?
