Is it ethical to judge the atomic bombings more than other means of murdering civilians (in similar quantities)?
That would be helpful.
The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 resulted in the deaths of approximately 200,000 people. While the bombings brought World War II to a quick end, they also caused immense destruction and suffering. Some argue that the bombings were necessary to end the war and prevent further casualties, while others argue that using atomic weapons on civilians was an unethical act of aggression.
