Who believed the use of the atomic bomb was necessary?
The use of the bomb was necessary. Japan was getting overconfident in their abilities after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. If Truman did not drop the atomic bomb, many more people would have been killed as a result of the ensuing battle. I do believe that the effects of the atomic bomb on human lives and the fallout mean that the atomic bomb should only ever be used in the most dire of circumstances to save more lives than it ends. Hope this helps, PAW

So yes it was necessary to drop the bomb in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. (edit) Some errors and to add more information (edit) Because of the Japanese culture, we would of had to fight off every man woman and child to have won the war. I believe that we saved 2-5 million lives (500,000 American lives were estimated to end)
