But the use of the a-bomb isn't really debated back then when it was used, because that was in the era of media control. The Vietnam war brought the mass killing and suffering of civilians to TVs of people everywhere. There wasn't anything unusual about the tactics used in Vietnam compared to other wars; it's just that for the first time, people got to see it.
