Was it necessary to Nuke Hiroshima and Nagasaki
Today is the 71st anniversary of Pearl Harbor. Today is the day a historic event occurred that pretty much gave us a reason to enter in World War 2. In my opinion we should have been in the war when France and Great Britain ask for our help. The problem is we were in the great depression, FDR was in his second term and we need to focus on our problems before we got into another fight. Well the main reason we weren't over there is because we were 5000 miles away maybe further and we felt as if it wasn't even something to ponder about. We felt France and Great Britain were war hungry not knowing it was a man named Adolf Hitler leading his country into this revolt.
The Treaty of Versailles gave Germany a terrible economy and made that country pay back a huge debt. Not knowing how extensive the effects of the treaty would be, how the conditions poverty and many people starving, how the pressure we put on them to rebuild the infrastructures they destoyed would drive their attitudes towards the rest of the world. I believe these things may have infuriated the Germans even more. There was a man named Adolf Hitler who rose up from this desperate and poor country and made sure he would never let his country or his people starve again. Hitler was never Jewish and his mother was never Jewish, so don't believe the lies that mother was Jewish. If he was Jewish he would have committed a holcaust against his own religion. Hitler picked a random group of people who just happen to be Jewish and blamed them for why the Germans lost the first World War and why their country was in extreme poverty. The thing is when you say something enough times to a person sooner or later that person is going to believe those lies to be true. Then Hitler gain power slowly until he had full dominance of Germany, then he declared war on Europe. The Axis power was Germany, Italy, and Japan. The three leaders where Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini, Ho Chi Minh.
Why Japan attacked us is because President Roosevelt denied the scrap iron, oil, and steel to Japan after there attack on China which is called The Rape Of Nanjing. December 13, 1937 in Japan invaded China and brutalized innocent Chinese people by doing the worst things you can think of. Thousands of Chinese men were tourtured to death and murdered and several hundred Chinese women were sexually assaulted by the Japanese soldiers. After all of that, they decided to both dead and living Chinese babies as ornaments on their vehicles.
Dec/7/1941 At 7:55 a.m. Hawaii time Japaneses pilots began to start dropping bombs on Americans in Hawaii. This unexpected attack, triggered an anger inside us Americans. About 2,400 Americans were killed and 1,200 were wounded in the Pearl Harbor attack. After that America joined World War 2.
The war was almost over Mussolini had be decesed and the country has been disrespecting his body by toying with it. Adolf Hitler had committed suicide and no one knows what happen to his remains. The war war for the Axis power was soon to be none exstisteing. After it was clear that Axis powers had lost it was up to Japan to surrender but the Japanese had a tradition were you fight until there weren't any soldiers left. This had brought out frustration to America we were sacrificing soldiers to ending this war with this none fearing country of death.
It had came down to to this plan called a nuke this powerful weapon would be the difference in the war. Franklin D Roosevelt's had three nuclear bombs. The first one he had to test and it was called the Manhattan project Classified. This project was very successful we warned Japan to surrender they been crashing airplanes in to our navy ship and killing a lot of our men. It came down to this we took all of our troops out of this war and told Japan we have a Bomb ready to go off we only had two we bluffed into saying we had 100's. They didn't believe us the first bombed happen. August 6, 1945, at 9:15 AM Tokyo time, a B-29 plane, the "Enola Gay" piloted by Paul W. Tibbets, dropped a uranium atomic bomb, code named "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, Japan's seventh largest city. In minutes, half of the city vanished. According to U.S. estimates, 60,000 to 70,000 people were killed or missing, 140,000 were injured many more were made homeless as a result of the bomb. Deadly radiation reached over 100,000. In the blast, thousands died instantly.
The city was unbelievably devastated. Of its 90,000 buildings, over 60,000 were demolished. Another bomb was assembled at Tinian Island on August 6. On August 8, Field Order No.17 issued from the 20th Air Force Headquarters on Guam called for its use the following day on either Kokura, the primary target, or Nagasaki, the secondary target. The explosion, temperatures of tens of millions of degrees were produced. 3 days later they didn't surrender so we bombed them again. Emperor Hirohito gave a recorded radio address to the Empire on August 15 he announced the surrender of the Empire of Japan to the Allis.

In my opinion this was a necessary force that we had to put on Japan and show the world how powerful we where this had set the tone for the United States. There was just to many American soldiers dying in this war it was a disappointment. There was no other opinion to how to handle the Japanese assault. There country want to fight until we quit and we couldn't. The war couldn't have come to a end until this country was on it's knees. It was a had decision by the president but it was the right one.
