However I think most of the criticism doesn't come from trying to picture Truman as a killer or as someone who has vaporized a city for lust of violence. Criticism comes from the fact that today we know what nuclear warheads are capable of doing, and yet these are still a viable weapon. This means that somebody still considers the possibility of using them, and this creates the need to do something to stop it (and makes people still feel guilty).
