No, they weren't. The killing of innocent people is never justified.

But you've got to have that death and destruction first for the world to know that these are weapons that should never be used. A mushroom cloud on an island would not suffice.

What about a military base? Or some kind of government building? Maybe I'm fringe-y on this issue because I don't think killing of innocent civilians who never explicitly consented to the war is ever morally justified, but I still think there was a better way.
