Do you honestly think that an attempt like that would have succeeded in doing anything? It would have, at most, been a distraction, and Japan's military engine was rapidly losing steam, and we could easily have starved out their military capability, since the general populace had basically abandoned support for the war. We just decided to show off the fruits of the Manhattan Project, and chose to devastate two cities to make a point.

Do you understand how hard if not impossible it would be to exterminate all the infected fleas? It really wasnt to show off the bomb. Most regret using it. It worked to perfection anyways. Japan stopped attacking. Japan wouldve fought to the death had we used conventional means which wouldve resulted in who knows what death toll to the US

We had advanced medical capabilities and widespread applications of pesticides. Wouldn't have been hard to curtail the attempt. Also, we had other options, besides a ground war. Blockade, USSR assistance, etc. But noooo, we chose to destroy countless lives and spark something that could have ended the world. And something we're still feeling the aftershocks of.

You are simply impossible to get through to Trying to say it wouldnt be hard to eliminate small pox ridden fleas dropped all over the US is hilarious of you

It wouldn't have been 100%, no. But between public works such as pesticide sprayings, etc. and the ability to rapidly treat cases that did pop up, we would have been fine. Not to mention that the majority of US citizens had been vaccinated, so transmission was dodgy in the first place.
