President Harry S. Truman justified the use of atomic weapons by arguing it would save lives in the long run by hastening Japan's surrender and avoiding a costly invasion. He believed that the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki would demonstrate overwhelming force, compelling Japan to capitulate. Additionally, U.S. military estimates suggested that a ground invasion could result in hundreds of thousands of American casualties, which influenced his decision despite the anticipated civilian toll. Truman's choice was rooted in a complex interplay of military strategy, political considerations, and a desire to bring a swift end to the war.

Some people called grant he had so many casualties in the war?
Ulysses S. Grant faced significant casualties during the Civil War, particularly during battles like Shiloh and Cold Harbor. Critics often pointed to these losses as evidence of his aggressive tactics and willingness to accept high human costs to achieve military objectives. However, Grant's approach ultimately contributed to the Union's victory, as he aimed to wear down Confederate forces through sustained pressure. His strategies reflected a broader understanding of the war's nature, prioritizing long-term success over immediate losses.
How many casualties occurred during world war 2?
Casualties after V-E DayThe exact numbers are hard to come by. I have read as high as 700. I don't know for sure. It took 7 years to eliminate all Nazi sympathizers. Here is more input:The final guerrilla resistance was not stamped out until 1948. They sniped, they planted bombs, and one of their favorite tricks was to stretch a rope across a road at the right height so that people riding in an open jeep would catch it in the neck. This could result in a broken neck or outright decapitation. The occupying forces executed guerillas when they caught them, the British used beheadings, and even resorted to taking and executing hostages.Here is recommended reading:"The Last Nazis: SS Werewolf Guerrilla Resistance in Europe, 1944-47" by Perry Biddiscombe; Stroud, Glouchestershire (Charleston, SC); Tempus Publishing, Ltd. 2000 ISBN: 0 7524 1793 2It will thoroughly cover the topic of Allied Occupation Troops after V-E Day.COMMENTIt's a strange thing, but Perry Biddiscombe's book is the only work that talks about 'Werewolf' guerrillas and it should be viewed very skeptically. There's no lack of American and British veterans who were in Germany in 1944-48. How many of them have mentioned areas that were dangerous because of Nazi guerrillas? On the contrary, most comment on how completely broken the German will to fight was. Biddescombe offers no evidence to support his assertion. Surely, were there such resistance, the places, dates, names of victims, etc. would be available. Lacking such supporting evidence, one is tempted to dismiss the claim as urban myth. There was indisputably criminal violence in the aftermath of WWII, and the US Constabulary in Germany did have casualties, but the last confirmed instance of organized resistance was in Aachen in March of 1945. It seems that the work includes incidents that took place during the war.It is widely suspected that talk of 'Werewolf' guellirras was 'talked up' by the Bush adminstration in order to try to explain insurgency in Iraq.

Military tribunals are much different than federal courts. The accused does not have access to all the evidence against them; nor do they get to choose their attorneys. A military commission can use illegitimate evidence (obtained by illegal wiretapping, for example) but a civilian trial cannot. Khalid Sheikh Mohammed has already been tried by military tribunal, and the decision has been made by the Obama Administration to try him by civilian trial in New York.
