what was the most significant factor in President Harry S Truman's decision to drop atomic bombs on Japan

History

galina1969 [7]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

President Truman made the decision to drop the atomic bombs on Japan due to the warmongering attitude of the Japanese government, which instigated its soldiers to fight to the death. Examples like the Battle of Iwo Jima, where there were only 216 Japanese survivors of an army of more than 20,000 men, showed that the Japanese had no intention of giving up. And this obviously resulted in a huge amount of American casualties. Therefore, the decision was made to strike a blow large enough to force Japan to surrender, avoiding further unnecessary casualties.

Pearl Harbor. The atomic bombs that we dropped on Japan was revenge for Pearl Harbor. We already had some issues with Japan but the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor was the main reason for the atomic bombs that President Truman dropped on Japan.

Was the hawaii annexation a good or bad thing???
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

The annexation and imperialism of Hawaii brought good and bad things to the islands.

A pro would be that if the U.S. didn't take over Hawaii another country would have, and it would have been a lot more brutal and harsh. There are a lot more cons than there are pros, one is that Hawaii did get taken over and added to another country.

Describe the white planters in the Haitian revolution and why they wanted a revolution
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

  By the fall of 1792, French troops had succeeded in regaining control of most of the island.  But the French and the whites in the colony were becoming increasingly divided among themselves about the French Revolution.  In France, the king, Louis XVI, was overthrown in August 1792, and a new, more radical assembly, the National Convention, was elected.  When this news reached Saint Domingue, it split the white population.  The radical revolutionaries in France sent a commissioner, Sonthonax, to take charge of the island, but most whites refused to obey him.  Sonthonax began to seek support among the free coloreds, insisting that they should have the same rights as whites.  In June 1793, white forces opposed to the Revolution and the granting of rights to people of color tried to seize control of the island’s main city, Cap Français.  Outnumbered, Sonthonax made a radical move:  he called on the black in surrectionaries to attack the city, promising that slaves who fought on the side of the Revolution would be freed.  This allowed him to defeat the whites, although Cap Français was burned down in the fighting.  In August 1793, Sonthonax extended his abolition decree to cover the entire slave population.

Althea de Puech Parham, ed., My Odyssey:  The first person account of a young white man from France who fought against the slave revolt.  He gives some interesting descriptions of the black fighters.

Madison Smartt Bell, All Souls’ Rising and Master of the Crossroads:  a novel series by a contemporary American author that gives a dramatic and fairly accurate picture of the Haitian Revolution.  Bell plans a third volume carrying the story down to the achievement of Haitian independence in 1804.
