Do you agree with the decision made by the United States to drop atomic bombs on two Japanese cities in order to end the war with Japan?
In the early morning hours of July 16, 1945, great anticipation and fear ran rampant at White Sands Missile Range near Alamogordo, New Mexico. Robert Oppenheimer, director of the Manhattan Project, could hardly breathe. Years of secrecy, research, and tests were riding on this moment. I think it is obvious that this Q is as difficult to rationalise as the one Truman was asked. There can be no right answer: Either way many people are going to die. I suppose the simple truth is that using the Atomic Bomb Truman ensured that the deaths would be those of the Japanese & not those of invading US forces. The straight answer to the question has to be yes: But it is not something one would wish on ones worst enemy.
