Answer 1

The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a complete atrocity. Thousands of Japanese people were instantly killed, but others died from painful radiation. Harry Truman made the decision to bomb both cities. I believe that this was a mistake for many reasons. The first being that the Japanese were ready to surrender. The second being that, as General Dwight Eisenhower said, "I hated to see my magnificent country be the first to use such an awful weapon."
