Well, the Japanese weren't exactly thrilled, but the rest of the world gave 99.9% approval. Maybe the Soviet Union was a bit disappointed because they hadn't taken much territory from the Japanese yet and would have had a greater post-war influence in Asia if they had been able to participate in the occupation.

What did other countries think of America after the atomic bombings?

They think Americans are hypocrites because north Korea wants nuclear weapons but we don't want them to have it because we are afraid they will attack us or others but America is the only nation that has nuclear weapons (but they are not planning on using them) so we are respected but alot of people do not like America.


What were some alternatives to dropping the atomic bomb?

Something peaceful would never have worked. The Japanese people thought their Emperor to be almost god-like and it took an atomic bomb to wake them up. We also rebuilt their cities after we destroyed it. I have been to Japan and have heard the older people come and tell me they are not upset with America over the atomic bomb. They were sad to lose all of those people, but it sent a powerful message that their countries leader was wrong.Japan declared war on us when they attacked Pearl Harbor. If we didn't do anything drastic afterward, our country would appear weak and it would open us up to more terror. Just my thoughts.AnswerI believe that the Atomic bomb was unessercery as Japan were about to surrender. the thought that Japan were hard fighters and may have been very worshipful to their Emeror may have scared the US but it should not have resulted in the Atomic Bomb. It may be that Japan were wrong about their beliefs but still, people should not be punished and discriminated by what they think and believe. The atomic bomb destroyed homes and families. why should anyone go through such pain? you would not like it if you got discriminated because of your beliefs and faith. so why do it?I agree there was some reason to the dropping but there was no reason to drop an untested bomb on a country that is about to surrender.

This question doesn't have a yes or no answer. You can't say that dropping two atomic bombs that killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people is right. Yet you can't say that saving probably over a million of soldiers lives by dropping the bomb wasn't right. Dropping the atomic bombs has it's pro's and con's.
