From the point of view of the Japanese it ws necessary to put the U.S. fleet out of action so that they could launch their offensives south without any viable force to stop them. An attack on Pearl harbor, with the fleet docked in tidy rows, presented them with a great opportunity to inflict the most amount of damage with the least risk to their fleet assets. We can look back now and say the Japanese must have been off their rocker making the attack and not realizing what they were getting themselves into however at the time they saw war with the U.S. as inevitable. So there idea was to start it off with an attack that would grant them a big advantage, at least for a short amount of time...about 6 months.

No, do you really think over 3,000 Americans deserved to die and all their weapons destroyed.

pearl harbor wasnt really a needed battle 3,000 Americans didnt deserve to die. thank god we won the war the marines won it for us

Not at all the American government just wanted to test these two types of bombs on Japan. If they did it for complete need they would have used two same bombs . The use of two different bombs tell us that they were experimenting on Japanese people on a larger scale.

No, for neither side. Too many lives were lost. Japan gained nothing and the USA lost nothing.
