By 1945, World War II had already been raging for over 5 long years. The surrender of Japan was nowhere in sight. Dropping the atomic bomb on Japan could have possibly ended the war very quickly, but tens of thousands of innocent Japanese lives would be lost, lives that were not involved in this conflict. If we did not drop the atomic bomb, however, there was no telling how much longer this war would have gone on for and how many more American soldiers' and Japanese lives would have been lost in a full-scale invasion of Japan. Think carefully at the human cost for both sides of the situation. Should the United States have dropped the atomic bomb or not? Reflect and respond in at least 1 paragraph (8-10 sentences) explaining in detail your reasons for your decision.
