Harry S. Truman I don't think this is correct, the war ended in a stalemate months after Truman was no longer president. By this time the soviets also had nuclear weapons an…<span>d they backed North Korea so the use of an atomic weapon would have been reckless to say the least. i think you are confused with the 2nd world war in which atom bombs were used by Truman to punish the Japanese. Editor's Note: President Eisenhower is the correct President for this answer. According to one author of Wikipedia, under the heading of Dwight D. Eisenhower: "As President, Eisenhower threatened to use nuclear weapons, forcing China to agree to a cease-fire of the Korean War. He maintained pressure on the Soviet Union during the Cold War, gave priority to inexpensive nuclear weapons and reduced the other forces to save money." I could not have said it any better than that author so I had to quote him. (I think it was Graham87 but I am uncertain it was him for certain.)</span>

It was the "never surrender" mentality of the Japanese army.  The thought was of dealing with a million or 2 million US lives to invade Japan.  The use of the atomic weapon was to save lives.

How does the U.S. not live up to our liberal values?
Contact [7]

Answer:

What one makes of all this will depend in part on how one understands the American political tradition. Many liberals view the rejection of liberalism as an alarming threat to "liberal democracy" — and American democracy, in particular — along with the institutions and values associated with it, which include representative government, the separation of powers, free markets, and religious liberty and tolerance. Their concerns are valid, insofar as some of liberalism's most vocal critics on the right and left indict the American political project and its founding as both misbegotten and irredeemably liberal.
