¨The use of this barbarous weapon at Hiroshima and Nagasaki was of no material assistance in our war against Japan. The Japanese

were already defeated and ready to surrender. . . . In being the first to use it, we . . . adopted an ethical standard common to the barbarians of the Dark Ages. I was not taught to make war in that fashion, and wars cannot be won by destroying women and children. . . . I voiced my grave misgiving, first on the basis of my belief that Japan was already defeated and that dropping the bomb was completely unnecessary and . . . I thought was no longer mandatory as a measure to save American lives. It was my belief that Japan was, at that very moment, seeking some way to surrender with a minimum loss of "face."

Katyanochek1 [597]

The correct answer is Open Boarders

Explanation:

In the case of the immigration debate, one of the sides or positions is that immigrants should not be restricted from entering the country and therefore immigration should be considered as negative.

Therefore, the opinion the government should promote family reunification as part of immigration is part of the Open Borders side that promotes reducing or ending for immigrants.
