<u><em>President Harry Truman</em></u>, by August 1945, had to take an<u> important decision about ending the war with Japan as soon as possible, knowing that they (Japanese) already lost the war at that moment.</u> <u><em>President Truman</em></u> had four options: 1. Continue conventional bombing; 2. A ground invasion of Japan; 3. Demonstration of the bomb on a deserted island; or, 4. Use of the bomb on a populated Japanese city. After careful considerations, <em><u>President Truman</u></em>, his advisors, and commanders decided to bomb Hiroshima to make a strong impression on Japanese Emperor, Army, and civilians.

If dropping the bomb was the right decision or not, it's still not easy to affirm. <u>However, the goal was to get a quick surrender from Japan and to do not extend the war uselessly.</u> In that sense, it was a painful and effective decision.

vredina [299]

Answer:

The United States has mainly had two consistent policies in the Middle-East from the 1980s to the present:

  • Supporting Israel: Israel is America's main ally in the region, and both Democrats and Republicans support Israel. The U.S. provides military contributions to that country, which is often in conflict with its neighbors. These contributions are crucial for Israel continuos military victories.
  • Supporting Saudi Arabia instead of Iran: since the founding of the Islamic Iranian Republic, The United States has been a enemy of Iran and viceversa, and Iran is at the same time a geopolitical enemy of Israel and Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia and Iran are in fact, often at war in other countries (proxy wars), and the U.S. always supports the former.
