I can't disagree with what you quoted, nor state that it is a good argument—it isn't, as was already pointed out and which I do agree with. I'm emphasising that they are not saying “the bombings were not as bad as people think”.

I'm just addressing the fuss that's being created. They are clearly not saying “the bombings were not as bad as people think”, but the headlines and articles make it seem so.

By doing this we are using the same spurious tactics as they are. Inundating people with blown out of proportion news like this will desensitise them to step into action when it will actually be warranted—the boy who cried wolf.

They spew tons of misinformation/disinformation/fallacies that should be addressed instead.

Fair point. I should've made the distinction. But in any case, nuclear power plants aren't bad.
