Yes, I do for two reasons. One, the attack on Pearl Harbor was unexpected and innocent lives were lost. Over 2,400 died. America wasn't even involved in a war and we were still bombed. Next, the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki weren't 100% about "revenge." Hiroshima and Nagasaki were military capitals. They produced most of the machines and weapons used in the war. By bombing there, you could cause a sharp decrease in weapons and Japan had no choices than to withdraw. This was better than fighting even more and even more lives lost.
I completely disagree with the last answer. The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a low blow by the U.S, the war was almost over and it was our way to officially end it. The bomb obliterated millions of people, and Japan is still suffering from the effects of it (radiation poisoning, birth defects, cancer) it also created tension between the u.s government and american citizens who believed we were wrong to bomb the japanese
