Well except for the fact that they really didnt give Japan time to surrender after the first dropping. I mean 3 days between droppings was definately not enough time. Nobody knew what happened to hiroshima after the Enola Gay dropped Fat man (the bomb) on the city because practicly every communication line was gone, so many died and no one could get word out.


I somewhat agree to the first dropping, becuase the U.S. saw what that the Japanese would fight to the death and they wanted to spare thier soldiers lives, and yes the allies warned Japan at the Potsdam conference, saying we posses a weapon that will utterly anhiliate you, but remember that no one had seen a weapon that was that destructive and most of it was played off as propoganda.

There has even been speculation that Japan would have surrendered on its own since it's German ally was defeated and that the Soviet Union declared war on Japan as negotiated at (Yalta? Casablaca?) conference.

but this is opinion biased, and not trying to stir up an arguement, just my 2 cents.
