Evan Thomas, author of Road to Surrender: Three Men and the Countdown to the End of World War II, joins The Realignment. Evan and Marshall discuss and assess the decision to use atomic bombs against Imperial Japan in 1945, how at its best, American foreign policy balances realism and idealism, why we shouldn't assume the "norm" against the use of nuclear weapons will hold in perpetuity, and how to reduce the danger of nuclear escalation in the Asia-Pacific and Eastern Europe.
