This thread is supposed to be about what the world should do with China, I'll gander one last response then I'm going back to the OPs original intent in the context of CHINA......and not bad mouthing the US.
WE didn't unleash this virus on the world......
Just flexing???
You don't understand history. Certainly, not the Japanese culture of the time.
Far from defeated. The entire population was arming themselves with whatever weapons they could muster in anticipation of the fight in their backyard that they were expecting. Even the US Generals had grim assessments on how much blood would be lost to physically take Japan in an amphibious assault. Well-documented as well.
But, being a limey, I can excuse you for not really knowing what you talk about when it comes to US history.
When Russia detonated their first bomb, with the secrets given to them …..from spies and turncoats in the Manhattan project..... it created fear throughout the free world and our new alliances forged with the blood of WWII. (well-documented as well)
The US isn't the ONLY place on earth that understands nuclear fission. In fact, there were many nationalities working in the desert of New Mexico to develop the original device(s.) Robert Oppenheimer was born in NY to German and Jewish parents for crying out loud!
In addition: Five prominent French scientists contributed to the Manhattan Project.....Lew Kowarski, Hans von Halban, Bertrand Goldschmidt, Pierre Victor Auger, and Jules Guéron…..so no one had to SELL the tech to France, because they already knew the secrets.
And why on EARTH would the US "sell" the tech to Pakistan??? Did we want India to burn in flames??? Hardly. And leave China out of that argument, because, at the time they were being ravaged by Japan and we had to HELP the Chinese to kick them out.
But, again......read a little bit (and understand) a little bit of history before you rant about a country you don't live in, or know their history. And the sacrifices WE'VE made that allowed your "great" Britain to still exist.
Give it time....the muslims haven't completed their work.... yet.....and youre still importing them in by the train load.
Irony?
Indeed.

Why did it have to be SOLD to them? Ever hear of espionage? Scientists? A black market in the burgeoning cold war mentality? Of which, the US was, certainly, not the only ones cutting backroom deals for nuclear tech. Ever hear of Imran Khan? Sure....he came by many years later, but, a valid point nonetheless.

I see you left out the FACT that we...the US...had to save your arses from Nazi Germany in the form of under the table weapons donations and the blood of OUR troops. Noted. Greatness, indeed. If it weren't for the water between your Great Nation and Hitler, and the US giving everything you needed to fight...….the UK wouldn't exist today. Hell, I rarely, if ever, hear the UK referred to as "Great Britain" here in the states. I hear the UK a lot, which is ironic, given that the Scots and Irish prefer to be called Scottish and Irish....as opposed to British. Not that I don't like the UK. Not that I don't think the blood we spilled to help out a fellow peace-loving democratic nation (as opposed to republic that the US is) was a good thing…..but Neville Chamberlain is hardly an example of "greatness." Even Churchill, whom I deeply admire, would have been forced to eat dirt if it weren't for the US. And the French. And the Canadians. Without our help, Dunkirk would have looked like a waterballoon fight in comparison to what the Wermacht would have done on British soil if they figured out amphibious landings.
But, again......read a little bit (and understand) a little bit of history before you rant about a country you don't live in, or know their history. And the sacrifices WE'VE made that allowed your "great" Britain to still exist.
