The Atomic Bombs. The dropping of the atomic bombs on japan was not justified, giving them no warning the U.S. went through and dropped the bomb to end war faster killing thousands of people. Considering the fact that this happened during world war 2, many were left dead, hurt, and with destroyed cities, due to japan not wanting to surrender, citizens of japan and the people in japan were impacted by this action. The United States, dropped theses bombs with not one single warning, above cities, and they did it to impress Russia.
“I was born with the devil in me. I could not help the fact that I was a murderer, no more than a poet can help the inspiration to sing.” The infamous H.H. Holmes spoke these spine chilling words. Known as “America’s First Serial Killer”, Holmes lived a secretive and lavish lifestyle. Holmes’s fear of doctors as a young child ripened into a fascination of the human anatomy.
At approximately 8:15 am on August 6th, 1945 an American B-29 bomber dropped an Atomic bomb called the Enola Gay under the commanded of former vice president and now president after the death of Roosevelt, on the Japanese city of Hiroshima, instantly killing around 80,000 people. Three days later the second Atomic bomb is dropped on another city of Japan, Nagasaki causes the deaths of 40,000 more. Consequently the Atomic Bomb killed relatively 100,000 more people that died a slow and painful death days after the explosions. Even though the atomic bomb being dropped saved more lives than if the US would have invaded Japan, because the Japanese soldiers don't surrender. , the atomic bomb should have not been dropped for moral reasons because
Ten days later, a formal warning was issued to the Japanese. The message consisted of a call to disarm and surrender or else face quick and mass destruction. Japan felt they could not accept the terms they were given in the Potsdam Proclamation. The proclamation was the list of defining terms calling for Japan to surrender. Later on, Americans concluded that for Japan to surrender, the bomb must be used.

The United states of America was the first country to make and drop an atomic bomb.
The Atom Bomb. After reading these articles, we should be asking a lot of questions. Was it necessary to drop these bombs or should we have gone on foot? What was the worst of the evils? Who would suffer the most from going in and taking over.
Should we have dropped The Atomic Bomb? The majority of the people would say yes but the other disagree with what we had done during that time. Yes, we should have bomb them because they killed so many people when they bombed pearl harbor. I feel pity for bombing them only because we killed 80,000 people when it happened.
On 6 August 1945, the first ever atomic bomb to be dropped on foreign soil was released from Enola Gay on Hiroshima in Japan. The nuclear bomb ‘Little Boy’ was dropped as a disastrous attack in an attempt to make the Japanese surrender to America, and destroyed Hiroshima where over 70,000 people were killed instantaneously. When the Emperor of Japan refused to acquire the United States' (U.S./USA) terms of surrender, the U.S. Dropped their second atomic bomb, 'Fat Man' over Nagasaki on August 9th, 1945. Many people despise the use of the atomic bombs, including myself, as the mass murder of civilians is a cruel, uncalled for, sadistic act. The point of this investigation is to determine whether America's decision to drop the Atomic Bombs
The decision to drop atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a military necessity. In order to put a final end to the war, the atomic
Decision to Drop the Atomic Bomb World War II was one of the most destructive conflicts in all of human history, with an estimated 60 million deaths. It involved the axis powers made up of Germany, Japan, and Italy battling against the allied powers of Britain, the Soviet Union, and the United States after the bombing of pearl harbor. This war was caused not only by the harsh terms of the Treaty of Versailles, but also the economic depression in Germany leading to conquest to regain former power. War began in 1939 when Germany invaded Poland, the United States having been provoked by Japan ended the war by dropping an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. A war can be considered just if it is a nation defending its homeland or protecting an oppressed

For the beginning of the war, America was remaining neutral until Japan attacked the US navy at Pearl Harbor. America then entered the war on December 8th of 1941, partnering up with France and Great Britain. During the time America was in the war, America was fighting both Japan and Germany on both sides of the world.
I think that the Atomic bomb shouldn’t have been invented but I think dropping the Atomic Bomb was necessary to help and show the danger of it. If the atomic bomb was never dropped anything could have happened Russia could have dealt with it, but if that happened Japan would still be working on military weapons, and try to take of the Pacific again or tag team on America. Since America dropped the Atomic bomb the world learned the power and danger of it, and seeing the survivors and the environment showed that the U.S had no idea on what power they were up against. If the U.S didn’t drop the bomb some other country would figure out the power and try to take over the world with it or end up destroying it. The radiation from the two atomic bombs
If you were the president of the United States during a war, and the opposing forces were talking of surrender, would you not jump on even the possibility to negotiate surrender? Would you give them their one condition they ask for and then proceed to kill around 180,000 civilians then give them that one condition to make peace? The answer to both of those questions is no. Although I do believe that ending the war sooner and avoiding invasion is a must, there were other options that in my opinion would have worked as well. The USA did NOT have to drop the Atomic Bomb.
If I had the atomic bomb, I wouldn’t have used it. I would have kept it in a safe area with bolted locks and maximized security to ensure that the bomb would not fall into the wrong hands. There’s really no way to ensure the safety of others with this dangerous weapon because of the mass destruction that it can cause. So, knowing its capability for destruction and the forces of the Axes, I would have never funded the development of the atomic bomb to begin with.
