Have you ever watched the videos that claim nukes are fake?

The excessive video edits are suspicious.

I've heard the theory. Have also heard that for years during the eighties, the Minuteman missiles were offline for some reason. Whatever hit Hiroshima and Nagasaki had something radioactive since the leukemia and other cancer rates went through the ceiling in those two cities after the war. Massive TNT bomb with plutonium? I am open to any theory that suggests lying by the US deep state.

The destruction photos of Tokyo and the nuke bombed sites look the same to me.

True but I'm not expert on that. More people died in a single night fire bombing Tokyo than did in either city supposedly A-bombed.

The damage from an three look the same. Same cause. Napalm fire bombed.

They already surrendered.

The Bolshevik Russians were already in on the nuke plan hoax, and the plan for a cold war.

Look up the images and evaluate for yourself. No real difference. Most structures were wood, and burned.

Trees and telephone poles still standing.

The main difference between a nuke attack and a traditional bombing is that instead of thousands of little explosions you have one big explosion and don't need to have an entire fleet of planes to accomplish the same effect. The damage from both is comparable. In the case of Tokyo the largely wooden construction of the city and the resulting fires basically burned the whole city down and killed the most people.

If you're very close to the center of the nuclear explosion the situation is very different, but get a mile away or so and it starts to be considerably less severe due to the inverse square law. Still have the fires, still have the shock waves, it just all comes from one single explosion rather than a prolonged bombing campaign of small explosions that last weeks. In both situations the city is devastated and the damage is comparable.

But in Hiroshima or in its vicinity there still lives this famous tree that "survived".

There is a famous photo of it.

This is what happens if you build your houses out of paper.

In modern western cities with a lot of concrete and brick the results from nukes would be very different (fire bombs might be much the same as seen in Dresden).
