The civilians killed and injured by the atomic blasts at Hiroshima and Nagasaki weren’t soldiers. They were citizens, women and children. The US was more interested in a quick and devastating end to the war than to care for the millions of Japanese lives who were innocent. They had in their hands the weapon that was capable of bringing speed for the Japanese surrender, so they used it. Admiral William Leahy stated, “I was not taught to make wars in that fashion, and that wars cannot be won by destroying women and children.” (Document K: Critics of Trumans Decision to Use Atomic Weapons) He meant by this is we would of easily won without murdering people living in the cities because of their plan and go after the Japanese soldiers.…
President Truman was justified in his decision to drop the bombs on japan because it was the best decision Truman could make. On 12 April 1945, President Franklin D. Roosevelt died of cerebral hemorrhage. Harry S. Truman was the Vice President for FDR. Truman took the office and became the president of being Vice President for only eighty-two days. The Manhattan Project began in 1939 with FDR’s support, it was “so secret that FDR did not even inform his…
The money that was involved in the creation of the atomic bomb was tremendous. It was massive, if it wasn’t experimented on then it was believed that the Americans would be highly disappointed. After the Japanese attack, President Truman took that as a great opportunity to use the bombing. The outcome was successful because it caused an atrocious amount of deaths in…
During World War II the United States government propelled a $2 billion venture. This venture, known as the Manhattan Project, was a push to deliver a nuclear bomb. This venture was gone up against by gathering nuclear researchers from everywhere throughout the world. President Truman's choice to drop the atomic bomb on the urban areas of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the immediate reason for the finish of World War II in the Pacific.…
This investigation evaluates whether or not the dropping of the two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was necessary to make Japan surrender unconditionally. To assess the extent to which the deployment of nuclear weapons affected the Japanese decision to surrender unconditionally and if Japan was already prepared to do this prior to the use of the atomic bombs. The details and motivations of the United States to drop the bombs are explored as well as Japan’s peace negotiations with the United States and their progress prior to the U.S. choosing to use the bombs. Actions of the United States and Japan not related to the end of World War 2 are not assessed in this investigation.…
In August of 1939, President F. D. Roosevelt was made aware of the possibility that German scientists were racing to construct an atomic bomb. He was also warned that Hitler would be more than willing to resort to such a weapon. Roosevelt, in response to this set up the Advisory Committee on Uranium, which consisted of both military and civilian representatives. In order to reach their own advancements in the nuclear field faster than Germany they were to study the current state of research on uranium and to recommend an appropriate role for the federal government. At Columbia University a limited military funding for isotope separation and the work on chain reactions were performed by Enrico Fermi and Leo…
Truman finally was elected as Vice President under Franklin Roosevelt in 1944, and on his death, Truman took office on April 12th, 1945. Over the next five months, significant events occurred to help with the conclusion of WWII. One was how the U.S. secretly started developing an atomic weapon for the use to settle the score of war. This was also known as the Manhattan Project. Meanwhile, over in Germany, the allied forces were cornering the Germans.…
To be safe, they had to let the Soviet Union know they had a new weapon but did not disclose just how extraordinary it truly was. At the Potsdam conference the big three met to discuss the final stages of the war. The Soviet Union had so much land and was a big topic discussed. As the meeting ended, Truman hinted the idea of a new weapon that would end the war and Stalin just nodded his head and hoped the U.S. made good use of the weapon. Little did the president know, Stalin already knew and was developing his own nuclear weapon.…
The Use of the Atomic Bomb The Manhattan Project was a secretive project created by the government to get ahead in the push for a nuclear bomb. After its completion, the atomic bomb was secretly tested in the New Mexico desert. The bomb was a success and next came the hardest decision of Harry S. Truman’s life. He was president at the time and he had to decide whether or not the bomb should be dropped.…
The world’s greatest physicists and mathematicians took part in commanding the efforts during World War II, the project was projected to cost a heaping $20 billion due to the production of the first uranium and plutonium bombs. Albert Einstein influenced the beginning of the Manhattan Project. In collaboration with Leo Szilard, Einstein wrote a letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939, to inform him of possible German nuclear weapons research and proposing that the United States began its own research into atomic energy. The American quest for nuclear explosives was driven by the fear of Germany’s very own Adolf Hitler and the fact that he would invent and gain military advantage. This project took a little less four years, the first atomic bombs were designed and built at a site in Los Alamos, New Mexico. The Manhattan Project produces three bombs: the first bomb known as “Gadget” and was used as a test model. Due to the enormous expense and slow production rates for explosive material, no further tests were conducted. The second bomb, known as “Little Boy” was detonated over the city of Hiroshima in August 6, 1945 during World War II, and the final bomb, “Fat Man” was detonated over the city of Nagasaki three days later. Which led to Emperor Hirohito to announce his country’s surrender. Nuclear facilities were built at Oak Ridge, Tennessee and Hanford, Washington. The main assembly plant was built at Los Alamos, New Mexico. The reason it was named the Manhattan Project was to trick enemy countries into thinking any development would be taking place in Manhattan, New York. The government was taking a chance to take enemy fire or possible bombing of an innocent state. This was made to believe that there was some sort of project taking place in a location that had nothing to do with…
A President’s Role During the Second World War, about 350,000 Americans died compared to the 7 million Russians that were sacrificed. By focusing on the negative aspects of the atomic bomb dropping, one may overlook the fact that a president’s first priority is to protect and secure the welfare of his/her people and Truman did just that by dropping the bomb. Chief Executive Harry S. Truman fully knew that his decision to drop the atomic bomb would cause damage beyond imagination, but he had no other choice because the Japanese were reluctant and were highly unlikely to surrender. Even with the sea blockade enforced by the United States, the Japanese displayed little to no sign of giving up. President Truman’s decision to drop the atomic…
1949, the Soviets tested an atomic bomb that they made. After Truman heard the news,…
When the first atomic bomb was detonated in Alamogordo New Mexico on June 16, 1945, all the scientists involved in the Manhattan Project understood the great destructive power of radio-active isotopes. Although the atomic bomb was a very destructive force our world would not be as good without it. Because of the government funding involved in the project coupled with the need for an atom bomb, much research that otherwise may not have occurred took place in the US. The Manhattan project opened the door to nuclear advancements and applications.…
The propaganda taught in grade schools was that the United States dropped the atomic bomb to save American lives and end the war. President Truman and some advisors stated after the war, that somewhere between five hundred thousand to one million American lives would be loss with an invasion of the Japanese homeland (37). So, in an attempt to bring the War in the Pacific to an end they used the atomic bomb. They also justified the use of the atomic bomb by claiming using the bomb would save an untold number of Japanese lives. The information which came from President Truman and his administrative sounded sensible and salved the conscious of America, but was it the truth? In his book, historian J. Samuel Walker provides a step by step analysis of events leading to Truman’s use of the atomic bomb to bring World War II to closure and extensive coverage of the relationship of the United States and the U.S.S.R.…
