US in WW2

The whole country of japan was destroyed and in ruin.

2 cities were destroyed by atomic bombs, considering the power of an atom bomb the destruction not as great as they figured. Many other cities in Japan were fire bombed to destroy any military industry they had. Tokyo was bombed on a number of occasions.

Because it is a rare situation when adquate troops and armament are available to confront such a situation. To waste forces in a piecemeal manner is a certain way to insure defeat. The concentration of forces is a military maxim that Custer failed to comprehend. Chairman Mao was a master at this, "when they attack, withdraw, when they halt attack". In WWII, the Allies established the Germany first policy. The Pacific was not just a defense, it was a strategic defense. MacArthur and Nimitz didn't always agree on the correct plans and policies for the Pacific War in which they held co-equal command, but they both knew an accepted that the war in Europe had priority.

There are several disadvantages to the US entering World War II. The most serious concerns were that there would be many casualties and that the economic cost of the war would be enormous.

The US never joined any world imperialistic movement. An argument might be made that the USA colonized Hawaii. Some local US businessmen toppled the Hawaiian Queen toward the end of the 19th century. The US Government demanded they give it back, they refused, bickering went on for decades until Hawaii voted to be annexed into the USA in the 50s. Bill Clinton apologized for the mess during his reign of hyper-polling sensitivity. Hawaii wants themselves back now, keeping the infrastructure at no cost of course, but so does Texas and Florida. We pushed some people around during the "banana republic" adventures of the Dulles brothers, but we have never imperialistic along the lines of Spain, France, Germany, Russia, Turkey, Britain, Portugal, Japan, Italy, Egypt, or any of those I forgot.

It destroyed the city and the health consequences were:

Leukemia, Lymphoma and Multiple Myeloma, Nervous system tumors and their response relation were observed for all solid nodules, adenoma, and nodules without histological diagnosis, autoimmune hypothyroidism, stomach tumors and breast diseases. The population has a long follow-up (50 years) and includes both sexes and all ages of exposure, allowing a direct compilation of risks by these factors. the population has a long follow-up (50 years) and includes both sexes and all ages of exposure, allowing a direct compilation of risks by these factors. Because of the use of Japanese family registration system, mortality data are virtually complete for survivors who remained in Japan.

The result in the coral reefs in the Bimini Island who were demolished by nuclear blast came alive again after 50 years.

About 16 million soldiers fought in World War 2

_______

You need to say which army.

The atomic bomb made Japan's economy temporarily collapse, but, with the help of the United States, got back on it's feet. See it as if a person punched some-one, but then helped them back up. Japan lost many farms, which made the stock market branch in farming collapse. Nagasaki was a major industrial city, and the A-bomb (atomic bomb) took out the stock market branch of the industries.

Remember, get your facts straight.

One who flees to a foreign country to escape danger is known as a refugee.

The Soviet Union wanted control of eastern Europe. The United States wanted independent nations in eastern Europe

D-Day was the Allied invasion of Normandy in order to push back the Germans and free France from German rule. It was significant because it was one of the largest battles of World War II, with troops from the United States, Britain, Canada, and freed forces from France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and more. Although the Allies suffered the most casualties of any WWII battle and the Germans were at a superior position, D-Day turned out to be a huge success and allowed the Allies to advance to Paris and free France.

Choice is non-existent in the former, but alive and well in the latter.

At the time of the Japanese surprise attack in 1941, Pearl Harbor was a US Naval base. So the person in charge was the ranking Naval officer in Hawaii, Admiral Husband Edward Kimmel.

The Japanese Commander of the force that atacked Pearl Harbor was Admiral Chūichi Nagumo.

there were 8 frigates on the American sife- the USS Constitution, the USS John Admas, the USS President, the USS United States, the USS Constellation, the USS Boston, The USS New York, and the USS Congress

The Doolittle Raid , named after James Harold "Jimmy" Doolittle who led the punitive raid , was a show on the part of the US to demonstrate to the Japanese that we would return .

Kyoto is just next to Osaka.

Hiroshima is the largest island in Japan. It is in Kanto region ,under Shimane (if you know this place.)

Nagasaki is in Kyushu. It is the feet of Japan. A little close to Okinawa.

Louis and Cynthia never divorced, although Cynthia wanted to because of Louis' drinking problem. Billy Graham led both Cynthia and Louis to Christ. Louis stopped drinking, decided to forgive "The Bird" and the rest of his Japanese tormentors and dedicated his life to Christ instead.

They made an awful lot of money and gained a frightening amount of power. that is why they waited as long as possible to come to the aid of Europe. A smatter of fact they had to be attacked by Japan first.

Well its hard to say for every conceivable circumstance. But, the German 88mm gun with which the Tiger was equipped could easily penetrate the thickest armor on a Sherman at one thousand yards. The original short-barreled Shermans were equipped with a 75mm, low velocity gun, and even "upgunned" Shermans, equipped with a 76mm higher velocity weapon, had no such punch. A Sherman had to try to get within one hundred yards of a Tiger, and even then, had to shoot it in the thin armor of its rear, or catch it going over something so that it was reared up, exposing the thin skin of its bottom, to have any hope of penetrating the Tiger. Otherwise the Sherman's projectiles would bounce harmlessly off the Tiger. This came as quite a shock to American tankers, who had been assured that they had the best tank. The Army had realized what beasts the Tiger and the Panther were, but hoped that surrounding them with swarms of Shermans would be sufficient. The US made 88,000 Shermans; the Germans produced only about 1300 Tigers. There is a documented instance, in one of the British attacks made in an effort to break out of the Normandy beachhead, where an entire British armored division, equipped with Shermans, was held up by a German "tank ace" with a single Tiger, who parked on a crucial crossroad and held it for several days, destroying seventeen Shermans, if memory serves.

But most of all, you lose for asking this question.

On September 3, 1939 Britain and France declared war on Germany, marking the start of World War 2. Germany had just invaded Poland, an ally of France.

War did, and continues to have, a large effect on industry in both nations involved. To fight a war, the military needs guns, bullets, tanks, planes, computers, uniforms, you name it. Obviously, the government doesn't constantly purchase wartime supplies of these goods from manufacturerers. So when the demand increases during war, production of these good exceeds the level of peacetime production. As a result, industry booms. However, war can have a negative impact on industry if the war is being fought near the center of industrial production or if the supply lines for raw materials is interupted by the fighting. For example, a factory may be producing record numbers of bullets for the war effort, but if the rail lines that bring the gunpowder and lead to the factory are destroyed by the fighting, the factory will not be able to operate.

Pearl Harbor is in Hawaii and was bombed by the Japanese on December 7th 1941. The above is true, and the Japanese thought they had caught all the U.S. ships in the harbor, but most were out to sea. Unfortunately several ships were bombed and sunk with heavy casualties.

You can't...unless you know someone who can get on the island and bring it back to you. Iwo Jima belongs to Japan and unless by special permission, is off limits. The island still has unexploded ordanance as well as number of caves that are very dangerous to enter.

For more expert information about Iwo and many of the islands of the Pacific during WWII, I suggest you Google "Harlen Glenn," historian, author and film producer.

Semper fi,

Britain did not promise the Arabs anything in 1914.

From July 1915 to January 1916, the British wrote the Hussein-McMahon Correspondence which was a set of letters between the British High Commissioner in Egypt (Sir Henry McMahon) and the Sharif of Mecca (Hussein ibn Ali). In these letters, the British promised the Arabs a unitary Arab State in the Middle East that would cover most of the Middle East. However, some areas were excepted, mostly along the Syrian coast.

It is unclear whether or not Mandatory Palestine was also excepted because the terms are ambiguous. Arabs argue that since Palestine is not mentioned explicitly as an exception (whereas specific Syrian cities are mentioned), Palestine was included. The British and the Jews aregue that the reservation was for areas west of Damascus and all of Palestine is west of Damascus.
