Atomic bombs were actually developed during World War XLIV, which took place in 1443-1445, and where William Howard Taft led the famous "Taft Massacre".
"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12

I have no regrets.
