Was using the Atomic Bomb a good idea? Yes, it was. It ended the war and actually saved many lives. If we didn't use the bomb on the Japanese they could have killed many of our soldiers or destroyed our cities. A few good reasons to use the bomb was because it ended the war, saved many lives, and to get back for the bombing of Pearl Harbor. Using the atomic bomb in WWII was a good way the end the war. If the war didn't end, many more soldiers could have died. The number of people that died from the bomb is only a small fraction of the people that would have died if the war kept going on. According to Marston 13, around 200,000 people died and many more were injured. If the war kept going, millions of people could have died. One other reason for using the bomb was to get back for the attack on Pearl Harbor. From that attack, about 1,500 people died, and almost 200 U.S. planes were destroyed. Using the atomic bomb on them was a great way to get back at them by killing more than one hundred times as many people.
millions
four million people would have did if we did not use the atomic bomb
many people died from the atomic bomb but the radiation still lingers there and can be very bad for people (i got this info out of a book

Yes. About 172,000.The cities population was about 340,000 in 1945. When the atomic bomb exploded over Hiroshima the death toll came to 168,000.Note: I visited the Atomic Bomb Memorial site in Hiroshima. It is a very sobering experience of what the atomic bomb can do. There is hardly anything left standing in the city at the epicenter of the explosion. People were completely vaporized. Many people died in the explosion, but 10,000's more died afterward because of radiation caused infections.
