We defeated their radar.

We defeated their leaders.

Their leaders are all dead.

And now all we do is we'll open up the strait, even though we don't use it, because we have a lot of other countries in the world that do use it that are either afraid or weak or cheap.

I don't know what it is, but we were not helped by NATO.

That I can tell you.

I have in front of me, though, you know, the Potsdam Declaration, July 1945.

I wasn't even going to mention this, but I have it.

And then we have the instrument of surrender by the Japanese, September 2nd, 1945.

And in order to implement the Potsdam Declaration and get them to surrender to the terms that the Allies wanted, we dropped two atomic bombs.

Now, I'm not encouraging it.

I'm asking about the law.

Is that legal today under the law of the war or not?

So I take that as a possible yes.

I'm not encouraging it.

You know, the left goes crazy and they try to put words in our mouths.

I'm just trying to get the law nailed down here.

I think it would be very helpful to go back and read the terms of surrender for the Japanese, for our envoys to read it, because the Japanese were dug in, even after the dropping of two atomic bombs.

And it took a lot of pressure, even after that, to get them to surrender.

Now remember I said there's two issues.
