Oppenheimer is more about Oppenheimer and his feelings to the bombs, than the actual atomic bombs.
Feelings*
which, for me, makes the bomb itself even more terrifying
Yeah, it is for the dude, not for the bomb, its litteraly called "Oppenheimer".
well... its the name of the movie
yeah man the whole thing was legit about oppenheimer's POV about the whole bomb thing
in indonesia we say
"350 years of Dutch colonization is better than 3.5 years of Japanese colonization"
Unfortunately not everyone 😔
As a Dutchman that scares me.
Also, may I apologize for those 350 years of colonization and the stupid attempt to get the empire back? I know it achieves literally nothing, but I'll feel better after having done it.
Are you serious european colonization has had much more dire consequences than the japanese ever could bring
@@chiraggupta7953yes in some aspects but they killed less people than what Japan killed in ww2 (when group prefer their old colonizers on the new conquerors you know the new suck)

Those that have lived through it are warning. Younger generations haven't even read "1984", or realized it was based on actual events. They don't know how it came about, or see it happening around them. We are in the lion's mouth.

"Its actually in line with the US Refusal to confront crimes committed agains Japan and the justification that the bombs were necessary to end the war"
DID SHE EVER WATCH THE F*CKING MOVIE?
I think she was already quite set in what she thought about the movie either before or during the first part, so she couldn't she what the movie was ACTUALLY SAYING.
Anyways, bad journalism.
Real 🤓
To be fair, they weren't quite as necessary, but not the point of the movie Oppenheimer. It wasn't necessary since the Japanese surrendered as soon as the Soviets invaded and feared a Soviet invasion. Thinking that the nukes was what ended the war is a misconception
@@deadteddybear2423 I'm pretty sure that the bombs AND the Soviets were important. They used the bombs as the reason to surrender for the civilians. And the Soviet threat for the army. Because the army would have otherwise ignored orders and kept on fighting, because they didn't understand the devastation of the bombs unlike the civilians. But all the civilians heard was that they were winning the war, so they didn't understand the Soviet threat.
So the bombs was a good explanation for the civilians, but not the army. Yet the Soviet invasion worked well on the army, but not the civilians.
Though there is an argument to be made that the second bomb was less necesary. As it could complete it's main function of signalling that the US had multiple by being dropped somewhere with less/no civilian casualties. Though the counter argument would be that they didn't know wheter that would be enough to make Japan surrender. But that's disputed. So then we transition into an entirely differant conversation which I don't know enough to comment about.
Anyhows, the key thing is that BOTH were important for Japanese surrender.
@@BasicallyBaconSandvichIV I could agree with that, but if one of the two haven't happened in our timeline, the Japanese would have surrendered anyway

7:40am here, good video to watch while going to uni
Yeah. Eleven past Ten in the morning currently I my timezone.
As a korean Its hillarious just seeing japanese people whining about getting nuked and complaining its war crime while not even knowing anything about what they did to us. I mean i guess its not exactly their fault their government intentionally covers that particular part of their history buts its always just funny how they actually seriously think they're the victims.
And they did a LOT to the Koreans! One example is "Comfort women."
exactly
And this is not like these are top secret documents either. Their warcrimes are all over the internet with articles and research papers. All you need to do is google Japanese history a little earlier than 1945 and thats it. You can find it on accident even!
Yeah it's like they forgot about all the civilians killed in korea, china, indonesia and on and on
One of the few times Chinese and Koreans unite I guess
As an southeast asian, i will say that I don't think the japanese have the right to demand apology from the US for atomic bombing when they not even apologize to korean,chinese,taiwanese,
vietnamese,burmese,malaysian,
the Philippines,indonesians and others.
As another Southeast Asian, I do have to agree.
I have the same idea, what about poor souls who died for Japanese to build their empire with slavery and to this day still honoring the war criminal and didn't do the same like German to teach next generation what they doing in the past, some people who likely Japan say it's to me "The Japanese people just except and move on they didn't want to stuck with the past like many other, and that is what their ancestors did. We are no longer part of them." that's it.
Same here brother 🇰🇭
this comment is more than enough to debunk that playing victim japan.
They apologized for nanqing or however the city is called r*pe crimes

@@so_whatLol Two words, pilot sashimi........
No They were just testing some different ingredients for susi
German cities were also bombed, civilians were killed but today's Germany were not viewed as victims unlike Japan.
I guess Japanese people and weebs were triggered because the movie was all about a man who caused their victim mentality.
It always comes to my mind that the german women where victim of sexual violence, from the allies and the axis.
When it comes to civilians, people tend to dehumanize them.
@@LuDa-lf1xd Especially if those civilians belong to an enemy nation.
There was like one time in history when Japan was a victim without any string attached: when American admiral forced the Bakufu to open the country. This is the only time when I can say Japan was 100% a victim without any "but". And that time is... few uneuqal economic treaties. And theyve managed to make the use of them anyways.
I am interested in Japanese culture and history, but when it comes to stuff like WW2 I have as much sympathy for them as I have for the Germans. And I think about apologists of both of them (when discussing that period) as morally equivalent.
🤔
Targeting civilians is a war crime no matter who did it, no matter what context or excuse, no one can justify it.
Japanese are not an exception those in Hiroshima and nakazaki were civilians men women children babies... It's disgusting to think that by giving a context it's not a war crime or for someone to say they have no sympathy for them.

Yes Drew!! Thank you for bringing this into light, Japan completely brushing aside and outright denying some of the irreversible crimes they committed like come on, isn’t it ironic that you’re holding a grudge while half of Asia haven’t even been compensated from Japan!!
Don’t forget they didn’t even get punished like Germany after WW2 who got completely dismantled
Hiroshima and Nagasaki were warcrimes, unjustifiable atrocities that should have never happened. The US is the only nation in the world that has ever used the atomic bombs on civilians, the soviets, chinese, not event Kim Jong Un, and he really seems like he wouldn't care seeing his whole nation get erased just to masacre US civilians.
I agree that Japan's crimes should get more recognition and that there should be something like reparations for the victims, but the US were responsible for prosecuting these crimes and instead they even helped the Japanese in covering up.
Yeah Germany was punished for their crimes while Japan was rewarded for them by the US.And they refuse to acknowledge the fact that they did all those crimes.It's disgusting for the victims
@@pixelboy3325Japan actually paid war reparations to east asia and south east asia
I agreed.And I don't like Japan for it.
As an Australian, I can totally see why Asia hates Japan considering that Australia was bombed by Japan and had thousands of our own country tortured by the Japanese during and after the war including my family who had one member executed by the Japanese AFTER the war. NOT DURING BUT AFTER
How the hell did they excute someone after the war?
@titosyettos2689 well, my uncle Tommy (great uncle) was captured in the fall of Singapore along with his brother. His brother was sent to Changi while he was sent further north to one of the camps closer to Japan. After the war when the camp learnt of the surrender of Japan. The officer in charge became so infuriated that he ordered the round up of the camp and selected 3 prisoners at random. One of the 3 selected was my uncle, he and the 2 others were marched to the front of the camp, forced to dig their own graves before being beheaded.

The problem is I don't really think Japan would stop anytime soon if the suns weren't dropped, which will probably pull the other powers aka literally the whole entirety of Europe (almost everyone). Which kinda leads for more death in the long run, and besides if the usa didn't detonated the bombs there and then, who knows the cold war would've actually started with a nuclear war because other contries won't have Japan as an example of how terrifying nuclear weapons are, thus making the cold war worse.
the reason why nagasaki and hiroshima were chosen was because of their military industries also US literally sent flyers warning the japanese population about an attack but the japanese leadership convinced them that it was a lie if
why do they think tokyo wasn't attacked?
Tokyo already destroyed
the first target was Kyoto, but one american general did not wanted to get a the historical city bombed which he visited before, so they chose Nagasaki instead.
Hiroshima was 80% Civilians and 30% Military. Basically probably one person pressured the president to bomb Hiroshima.

Accurate because the people who participated in Unit 731 referred to their live test subjects (Chinese civilians) as logs. The contrast is insane when the Japanese believed they wanted to liberate all of Asia from colonization when they're worse than the colonizers.

What a lot of people don't realise is how stubborn Japan was during that time. The war would not have ended for a long time if they weren't used.
but the point is even if millions of soldiers died invading Japan, that's still just soldiers who know that's there's a chance they will die, but buy nuking a city full of innocent people, there killing people who had no reason to fight America, and most of them never would, doing something which is so evil that it doesn't even feel right to call it just a war crime, because it'll make it easier for you to beat your enemy in a war isn't a thing which should be waved away bye saying it would have taken longer for them to surrender if they hadn't
@@Af-Ar-Akdirect invasion might have less civilian deaths but soldier deaths is gonna be crazy a side from that japan might get divided like korea and more war would happen in cw
thats not true
Not entirely true. If I recall, the Japanese were open to peace negotiations, but the Allies (I think mainly the US) wanted an unconditional surrender. Though Japan is far from being owed an apology.
@@delrunplays2903what was the unconditional surrender the americans wanted with japan

It amazes me how many people are completely unaware of this type of history regarding countries in the Eastern hemisphere and how quick they are to create their own narratives.
We're all aware of how weird it is that Türkiye doesn't acknowledge its past treatment regarding Armenians, Assyrians, Kurds & Pontic Greeks, so it really baffles me when other countries do the same.
It should also be noted that the historian’s official credentials listed gender and racial studies as majors in the US. That already had some people iffy on her opinion and it didn’t help that she blames modern American politics for why we don’t talk about the bombs.
all war is a crime
true
Ty drew for making these type of videos
5:39 the look a Drew face is literally how everyone in the comment section is when watching the AJ+? video
(i mean fr its not like Japan is in deep crisis like Germany, not to mention what the Germans did :-)
Bro that’s Al Jazeera, the news channel is joke for decades
One of few people talking about this, you should make more vids like this drew
What else do you expect from AJ+?
Alternatively the US and the allies planned to launch a direct invasion on the Japanese to get them to surrender, though the atomic bomb is horrible, it also saved more lives on both sides if you think about it
This is a myth. Military documents from the war have shown that the Truman administration had no plans for an invasion of the Japanese home islands even before the successful Trinity nuclear tests.
The casualty estimates for an invasion of the Japanese home islands are in the millions.
There is a reason why the movie is called "Oppenheimer" and not "the way to the atomic bomb". It talks about...idk what his name is... oh right, OPPENHEIMER!
AJ+ is Al-Jazeera. Which is a Qatari publication, with a lot of propaganda against Israel and a strong interest/tendency to adopt an anti-Western angle... whether it's legitimate or not.
I see no wonder why this video about Oppenheimer sucks

Triggered him so hard he had to upload at this hour.
I do believe the US needs to reflect on its history and the justification of the bomb, but it does trigger me too when they make a false equivalency like this
exactly! we can reflect on our actions and apologize while not defending the atrocities of the Japanese empire
Yeah! BOTH empires need to reflect on their past. Which I don't see why that wouldn't be possible.
Actually why not have ALL empires reflect on their past for a bit while we're at it?
And yet the bomb wouldn't even have been required if Japan and Germany hadn't been who/what they were at that time. Are we discussing "accountability" or not? Americans DESPERATELY tried to avoid the war, we got literally PULLED into it. Stupid AF weebs.
Ay, Japan ain't throwing rocks in a glass house, it's firing a whole damn machine gun.
When she says America refusal to confront crimes against the Japanese didn’t Obama go on a apology tour and went to Japan also is hypocritical when they deny war crimes
It seems like Obama did go on an apology tour of sorts, but from everything I've found from at a quick glance he stopped short of apologizing to Japan, so good on him I guess.
Honestly Drew, thank you for making this video, so many people love to frame situations in a way the most narrow mind ways and then act self-righteous.
My grandfather fought in the Pacific Theater during WW2. If there had been an invasion of mainland Japan, he probably would have been one of the ones sent. He probably would have died. I probably wouldn't be here.
AJ+ can kiss my rosy red rear end.
Yeah, we killed 200,000+ civilians, and that is regrettable, but I'd argue that act saved thousands more.
Also the question is asked about future use. I'd posit the horror the world saw there may have had a hand at keeping the nuclear powers from using them more.
Wasn't the simulated casualties something like 10 million? It's grim and regrettable but sacrificing 200K to save 10 million seems worth it
@@zombieoverlord5173 I'd have to look it up. But we were predicting massive US and civilian casualties. The math is regrettable, but sometimes the math has to be done.
Bro that’s Al Jazeera, the news c channel is joke for decades
@@zombieoverlord5173 yeah its around 10-15 million cassualties, and it will make Japanese split half like germany because the soviet preparation and possibly no japanese left on that island
So a few things about the numbers:
1) 200 000+ is the estimate for direct, immediate deaths from the bombs. It doesn't include the deaths from leukemia and other after effects.
2) As many as 30 000 of those immediate deaths were not civilians, or at least not combative civilians (eg: Japanese citizens). A lot of them were soldiers, especially in Hiroshima, and a lot of them were slave workers including Koreans and Chinese. Also, 25 were Allied soldiers (a number that probably would have been higher if Japan didn't summarily and systematically kill POWs).
3) As per the above, neither were targets chosen for their capacity for civilian casualties, but were instead chosen primarily for their strategic and military capabilities, with both being port cities with significant shipyards. The civilian casualties were a necessary evil, but they weren't gratuitous.
This video perfectly summarizes the phrase “RICH COMING FROM YOU!”
Finally, he's posting in the afternoon for Australians
I just hate when people post videos like this defending an argument or pov and not mentioning like half of the topic and taking it out of context just to make their argument seem "right". thanks for talking about this vid, Drew:)
Unit 731 has left the chat
Japanese crying about the bombs when in reality it was a sad but necessary thing. I mean just look at the fact that they didn’t even give up when ONE atomic weapon was detonated that completely flattened cities that the US had to send a SECOND one. WW2 Japan was as evil as they come, but of course they would rather hide that and play victim
‘Had to send’ is also a victimised phrasing, should be ‘decided to send’
Idk if it was necessary but I totally agree that the Japanese government did not intend to accept defeat. In that means it might seem necessary but could that not be achieved by invading? Ofc one could come and say that this would cost many americans life’s and I agree. But would it be the same number of loss like the tragic atomic bombs? We have also to think that the Soviet Union would help (like they promised to) if they would not chose to drop the bomb. So maybe it was unnecessary but that might also not be the case as maybe the outcome would be different (Japanese government not accepting defeat). What I want to say is that in my opinion talking if something was necessary or not is not an easy thing to do. In the end it’s just some thoughts that came into my mind. Pardon my English I’m not a native speaker.
"necessary" is quite a strong word when in reality the us just wanted to test the bomb and also show power to the soviet union

Why should America apologize, when Japan hasn't apologized for Nanking, Manila, Bataan, Tonkin, Java, etc
False equivalency. The Japanese warcrimes were orders of magnitude more cruel and heinous. Both cities were military targets and the population were warned to leave. The Japanese chose death and pride over the lives of their own people.
war itself should be a crime
@@socialistrepublicofvietnam1500 For sure, the US absolutely did bad things up to and including war crimes, but we've got participation ribbons to Japan's Olympic gold medals when it comes to war crimes. I'd apologize to Germany but not Japan.
That's true. But I fail to see how the nuclear bombs were war crimes
The war crimes alone that the Japanese Empire committed in my country, the Philippines, are pretty horrendous. The massacres of The Battle of Manila in 1945, estimated to have casualties of up to 100,000, the Bataan Death March, in which 75,000 Filipino and American soldiers marched to Japanese imprisonment camps where many died of hunger, dehydration, and the brutality of the march, the looting and destruction of our cities, the medical experimentation conducted by Japanese scientists, the sexual violence committed by soldiers which resulted in thousands of Filipina women being turned into comfort women, forced labor for building fortifications and military infrastructure, and finally, the torture and execution of soldiers and civilians-all of this happened in just three years. I mean, this is true war crimes. In my personal opinion, though I do not harbor much hate for Japan now, they should acknowledge what they did. Watching videos like that triggers me.
Legit, The south East of asia suffering hard not to mention China and Korea as well 💀, and yet no matter how many people will know, Japan won't say one sorry.
Thing is, Oppenheimer did in fact talk about the decision to drop the bomb in a critical way. Oppenheimer hates himself after the bomb is dropped, sees bodies wherever he goes and believes he destroyed the world. It's just that the specific bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki are nothing in comparison to what they led to
What did they lead to?
Oh wait nvm I’m guessing you’re referring to the Atomic Arms Race
every scene after the Gadget detonation (except drama behind The Hearing) is basically Oppenheimer blaming his for the bomb. Hiroshima and Nagasaki is one case, what he even worried is he lead Humans to its own extinction gadget.
@@yuyoshida7359 exactly
@azravalencia4577 EXACTLY. The movie shows Oppenheimer desperately trying to excuse the bomb to ease his raging guilt for doing what he did, and for the repercussions of his actions
This happens everywhere, not just this topic. So good job for fact checking Drew!
You just know it's serious when DREW DURNIL of all people are triggered by your video.
I think i saw a HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE plush and because i am austrian i need to buy one for every austrian Emperor 😂
I’m glad this video was made, because there are so many videos like this out there that frame one thing as bad and one thing as good without giving any background or context as to how the problem came about. It is a good thing that more people are learning about WW2 and the things that happened, because it is important so that we know to never make the same mistakes again.
I absolutely love this
I started crying with laughter after she said war crimes
well it is a warcrime i dosent mattere if they japan did warcrimes two wrongs don't make a right
@@enrico1puccicompared to what could've happened for both sides if the U.S. landed, the nukes weren't really a war crime
I see Drew has embrace the true chinese leader finally
All hail John Xina leader of the chinese communist party and chairman of the peoples republic of china
“war crimes” Bro is going to be shocked when they find out about unit 731
Plus she be forgetting that whole sequence in the movie where the citizens are terrified and the aftermath of nuclear war. Like bro it was clearly mimicking his Japanese civilians probably reacted when the two bombs hit.
I've never been more proud of Drew
Great video and while said on your points. Fun fact the person who planned the attack on Pearl Harbor Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto reportedly write in his diary, “I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve.” Which is exactly what they did.
THANK YOU DREW FOR UPLOADING AT A RESONABLE TIME FOR ME IN AUSTRALIA 🇦🇺
Thank you Drew
Based and Historically Accurate Drew!
Love it. Hi from Alaska!
Nice, it's 11:32am here in India, usually Drew uploads at 10pm or 9pm
Bro went in hard. Wasnt expecting that. Love your stuff drew
I don’t get it. Why should the United States Take the blame for the crimes it committed against Japan if Japan is gonna cover up the crimes they committed against literally everyone during World War II? To me that seems like a double standard.
Hypocrisy at it's utmost form!
Japanese to almost every nation near them: perish mortal.
The Germans that wanted to help the Chinese: holdup bro
I really like this, would be awesome to see more debunking videos
The funny part is japan literally shot at pilots in parachutes that bailed out of their aircraft, it was a warcrime before warcrimes too
They didn’t. What and where are you getting this from?
@@yuyoshida7359 Maybe the OP means enemy pilots? It certainly would be in-line with how the Japanese military carried itself. They shot at medics, after all, though to be fair that might have been more of a difference between the European and East-Asian approach to war rather than specifically Japanese, though I could also see it being just the Japanese.
I mean, human sashimi....
Just look at Geroge HW Bush's bio during the war, a lot of his crews on the same aircraft who were captured got eaten.....
Nice finally drew releasing something during pm
Dang 1:40am?
fr
Yeah wtf? And I got school tomorrow
