The United States' decision to deploy atomic bombs in World War II has been a topic of some controversy. Did the United States make the correct decision in dropping atomic bombs on Japan? In what ways could the decision be justified or not justified? Why or why not?

Yes AND No

Explanation:

President Harry S. Truman ordered the use of atomic bombs on Japan, to end World War II swiftly, and prevent any more Allied casualties.

Pros:

- It ended World War II

- It put the United States on the globe as a super power, not to be messed with.

- Japan surrendered almost immediately.

Cons:

- Millions of innocent Japanese citizens died due to the bombing

- It started an arms race, that still continues today!

- The cost of damage on Japan was astronomical

So, really, it's about your personal opinion. Was the swift ending of World War II, worth the millions of lives lost due to the bombing? Was the murder of innocent Japanese families worth the prevention of any more Allied casualties? What about the lasting impact that the bombing had? Consider the Arms Race between the USSR and the US during the Cold War. Today, there are still nuclear weapons, and we are constantly in fear of government utilizing their weapons of mass destruction in war. Arguably, the fear of mass annihilation is what keeps us at peace, because no one wants to star a nuclear war. Weight the pros and cons. Neither is right or wrong. :)

Hope this helps!
