Why we had to drop the bomb.
Advertisements [?]
The world was war weary,hundreds of thousands of GI's were dead. A million more were ready to invade Japan. It was over. Japan was on a suicide run. Without the bomb the war would have gone on for years. Millions would have died. We could have dropped the bomb on Tokyo or Osaka and killed millions. It was over,that Japanese warlords had to be stripped or power,this was the only way.
