1. Imagine that you are President Truman in the summer of 1945. What decision will you make? Why?

- I would decide to drop the atomic bombs on Japan. However, I would first keep trying to talk to the emperor and keep giving warnings. But, if there was no response or agreement, I would end up dropping the bombs. The Japanese were pretty relentless and weren't going to give up until we showed them we were serious. They needed to be shown they couldn't win. Also, I would only drop the first bomb and then wait for a little bit for a reaction before going forward with the second one.

2. Imagine that you are one of Truman's advisers. Reply to another student's post for question 1, describing one choice that Truman could have made. Explain why this choice could work.

- Both students made the same choice I did. This choice would work because there is the negotiation, the action, and then the time for reaction.

---------

3. Reply to one student who has responded to your original post. Would his or her argument have changed your decision? Why or why not?

- n/a

Sedaia [141]

The reason for which Brinkmanship had been considered a bold, as well as, an aggressive idea would be:

<h3>What is Brinkmanship?</h3>

Brinkmanship is defined as the hunt towards a particular benefit by taking a risk instead of giving up. Brinkmanship is the practice of trying to achieve a profitable outcome by pushing dangerous events on the brink of an ongoing conflict.

This strategy is based on international politics, foreign policy, labor relations, modern military strategy, and high-profile cases.

The idea is considered an aggressive idea because it involves a greater and more dangerous level of risk i.e. "pretending an attack to take the enemy down.'

However, the idea is dangerous but it contains an advantage on the hand if it gets successful.

Thus, option C is the correct answer that is bluffing an enemy into thinking it would be attacked.
