麦克阿瑟到底有没有要使用原子弹?
有垃圾文辟谣,说麦克阿瑟从没有说过要使用原子弹。我就转一篇James G. Lucas对麦克阿瑟在1954年的一篇采访。James G. Lucas是普利策新闻奖的获得者,某风不会说他是在造谣吧。 6park.com https://www.nytimes.com/1964/04/09/archives/texts-of-accounts-by-lucas-and-considine-on-interviews-with.html

I would have dropped between 30 and 50 atomic bombs on his air bases and other depots strung across the neck of Manchuria from just across the Yalu River from Antung (northwestern tip of Korea) to the neighborhood of Hunchun (just north of the northeastern tip of Korea near the border of the U.S.S.R.). 6park.com“Between 30 and 50 atomic bombs would have more than done the job. Dropped under cover of darkness they would have destroyed the enemy's air force on the ground, wiped out his maintenance and his airmen. His only means of rebuilding would have been over the singletrack Trans‐Siberian Railroad. It is an excellently run railroad but it could not have handled the material needed to rebuild the enemy's air force in a sufficient space of time.
