The imperialist history of america comic
I know someone posted a link to the website that hosts this comic about america's violent history to do with war, expansion etc.
I've checked advanced search, but cant find it. Does anyone here know where it is?

Re: The imperialist history of america comic
I read up until it said the defeat of Japan had been secured before we dropped the atom bombs. No. We would have lost two million men invading the Japanese mainland, and that is exactly what we would have had to do. You could argue that the Nagasaki bomb was a mere show of force, but certainly not the Hiroshima one.
