Are there some good and unbeatable arguments against the Hiroshima and Nagasaki A-bombing?

This is a learning question no? pelase don't post it in practice.

Well let's argue emperically that they stamped the US's authority on the second half of the twentieth century and ushered in the climate for which actually still exists because, as the US is currently the world's only superpower, there is no symbol for those of opposed to US domination to gather around.

Symbols are very important to the mainstream. A geopolitical "us and them" situation will be taken more seriously by the bourgoisie than "us" (the US government for example) and a bunch of anti-capitalist protestors.

It did wipe out many innoncent lives. The targets were civilian and the cities had no military importance whatsoever. Also, it caused many long-term effects that are still lasting to this day.

Of course, just a bit vague didn't know if it was a pacifist comment or not :P

You can argue against the bombings but you can argue against anything. For the US ruling class the dropping of the A-Bomb was fully justified and worked out pretty well for them.
