I personally agree with Truman's refusal to use nuclear weapons against China in the Korean War. From a humanitarian point of view, it was going to be an even bigger catastrophe than what happened in Japan, as China had much more people, so a nuclear intervention would have meant death to millions of people, mostly innocent ones.
