Soviet Union declared war on Japan b. atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki c. unconditional surrender of Japan d. unconditional surrender of Germany
The correct answer is B) atomic bomb dropped in Nagasaki.
<em>The cause of the beliefs expressed in the quote was the atomic bomb dropped in Nagasaki.</em>
On August 9, 1945, the United States Air Force dropped the second atomic bomb on Japan's territory. The first bomb was dropped in Hiroshima, creating total devastation in the city. The same happened in Nagasaki. That is why the quote says that "the bomb massacred old people, woman, and children, destroying and burning down Shinto and Buddhist temples." After the dropping of atomic bombs, Japan surrendered unconditionally. The Allies had won World War II.
