Another contrast

When you think about it we have come a long way.

Suppose we already (secretly) had the A bomb in 1941. Fifty for us and fifty for the Brits. How many would have been used and where would they have been used before we answered the phone to accept the surrender.

I suspect that we would have emptied the clip.
