Answer:
In the statements prior to the given statement, the author makes their opinion clear. The introductory sentence states, "How can a human being with any claim to a sense of moral responsibility deliberately let loose an instrument of destruction." Off of this statement alone, it is evident that the author strongly questions the morality and ethicalness of dropping a nuclear bomb. It goes on to state "This is not war: . . . this is pure nihilism."
Thus when the author states "strikes at the very basis of moral existence?" they strongly believe that dropping a nuclear bomb is immoral and unethical, they question the meaning of being human if "the very foundations or morality are overthrown" by dropping a nuclear bomb.
I hope this helps.

The decisions of the Supreme Court also reflected the nationalism of the postwar period. With John Marshall as chief justice, the Supreme Court greatly expanded its powers, prestige, and independence. When Marshall took office, in the last days of John Adams's administration in 1801, the Court met in the basement of the Capitol and was rarely in session for more than six weeks a year. Since its creation in 1789, the Court had only decided 100 cases.
Saint Domingue (which eventually became Haiti) was surrendered by the Spanish to the French after decades of fighting. Between 1700 to 1704 there were more than 100 sugar plantations. The French needed slaves to work in the plantations so they started bringing slaves from Africa. More than 10,000 slaves arrived in Haiti each year, and by the year 1787, the number increased to more than 40,000. There were nearly half a million slaves in Haiti by this time. The slaves outnumbered the free population by 10 to 1 so they began to organize. This led to the Haitian Revolution.
