The Gettysburg was pretty much a pep talk for the civil war, so he wanted to express the ideal we had when establishing america, for the good of the people.

Should you have made the decision to drop the atomic bomb over Japan like America did ? Why or why not ? 5 sentences.
fiasKO [112]
No, I would have not dropped the atomic bomb over Japan. The reason I state this is because I would have considered the many people that would have died in the act. Entire families would have been vanished or broken apart, many years would have been shed. A lot of hearts would have never been mended through the course of time, a horrid memory would have stayed with them till their very death. Also, many innocent people would pay for the act of a few bad men.
