how did the people of hiroshima died back in the hiroshima bombing in 1945? Of course they died because of the bomb but I want to know what exactly happened to their bodies. I'm just curious about it because I watched a video demonstrating the few seconds of the hiroshima bombing, and I saw someone on the street suddenly disappeared and became dust. Is it how they died? or they just exploded? And a few note, the streets were not covered with body. Hmmm... I'm just very very very curious. Thank you.

Is Obama going to apologize to the Japanese government for the bombing of Hiroshima? With all of the good that Obama is doing, correcting the mistakes that America has made, such as the Guantanamo Bay ... will he apologize to the Japanese government for the bombing of Hiroshima. The bombing of Hiroshima was such a tragic mistake made by our government. I really hope Obama apologizes to the Japanese government about the mistake that our nation made.
The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is the worst terrorist act ever? The bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is the worst terrorist act ever committed in the history of mankind. The Americans could have dropped it at military bases or a lone island to show the strength the atomic bomb. But they did not. Instead, they dropped it in a middle of a city in the morning. The act cannot be justified by saying you are saving more lives because the people in the city are not the ones fighting the war. They are innocent human beings. How can you kill someone not involved in the war? It's like killing your enemy's parents because they are related to your enemy but not involved in your enmity. That is not justice.

What should my social studies project be on, the bombing of Hiroshima, or the prohibition of alcohol? Please help! I am in a dilemna. I do not know what I should do my social studies project on. I'm interested in the bombing of Hiroshima--it seems like a pretty cool topic. However, I only have 2 weeks to complete it, and would it be too hard to do the bombing of Hiroshima? If so, I would choose the prohibition of alchohol which is only mildly interesting. I would like to know your opinion...the bombing of Hiroshima, or the prohibition of alchohol?

How did the bombing of Hiroshima impact Australia? Hi. I've been trying to research this but haven't been getting very clear answers. Basically I was wondering...

Was the Hiroshima/Nagasaki bombing called for, even if they bombed pearl harbor? I know the bombing on pearl was a terrible act, and it killed over two thousand people. But those were military personnel. The nuclear bombing of Hiroshima caused over 90,000 civilian deaths. The bombing of Nagasaki also killed over 60,000 civilians. It seems to me that the atomic bombs were even worse then pearl harbor. I love America but it seems to me that we did a terrible thing. What does everyone else think?

What do people think about the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? well as you all know the main reason we bombed them was because we wanted to avoid more casualties.

I just want to know what you guys think about the bombing give me your Honest opinion
What was the United States' relations with Japan before, during, and after the bombing of Hiroshima? I'm doing a report on Hiroshima, before and during. I can't seem to find some information. For example, what lead to Hiroshima (I think it was in retaliation to Pearl Harbor), how we tried to avoid dropping the Atom bomb on Hiroshima, why we did it, how we did it, etc. Mostly, the things that involved the beginning of Hiroshima, who supported it, what was happening with the Japanese BEFORE we got them to stop attacking (after we dropped the A-bomb). Thanks to anyone who can help.
Debate on whether the US made the right choice about bombing Hiroshima.? While we cannot change the events of history, oftentimes there is lasting debate as to whether a particular course of action was the best one. The bombing of Hiroshima in 1945 is such an event. There are those who argue that the United States had no choice to end the war in such a way, while others argue that the United States had other options and should never have resorted to the use of nuclear weapons. What do you think and why?
A song for a Hiroshima bombing project? I'm doing an English project where I have to write a poem on the Hiroshima bombing and make a movie to put it on. The movie has to have music though and I need a good sad sounding instrumental piece to go with it.
Do you think the Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is a Terrorsit Attack? This is the UN definition of Terrorism: “intended to cause death or serious bodily harm to civilians or non-combatants with the purpose of intimidating a population or compelling a government or an international organization to do or abstain from doing any act" It seems to me that the Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki is a Terrorist Attack by the US Air Force. The definition seems to fit. What do you think? Remember everyone is entitled to their own opinion, please respect that. But... don't let that stop you from saying what you want to say. War is defined as armed conflict. When two different military's attack each other, not when a country attacks innocent civilians.
Where was the hypocenter of the Hiroshima Bombing? This is for a project. I have a map of the city before the bombing but need to find out where the bomb was dropped. If anyone could email me a map of where the bomb was dropped that would be great. You can email me at brucereynolds31594@gmail.com thanx
What did we learn by Bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Personally, I think we learned that in an epic war, you have to play hardball. Because when you do, you get results that you could never get trying to constantly talk without any threat of action, or meaningful action. It seems like we forgot those lessons though. But Why, that was the worst answer in the history of Yahoo! Answers.
Do you think that the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was a war crime? On the morning of 6 August 1945, the United States Army Air Forces dropped the nuclear weapon "Little Boy" on the city of Hiroshima, followed three days later by the detonation of the "Fat Man" bomb over Nagasaki, Japan during World War II against the Empire of Japan, part of the Axis Powers alliance. Japan was already losing the battle in the Pacific and elsewhere in Asia. Many innocent people died on those days, resulting from the blast and the nuke radiation. I ask again, was this a war crime? Was Harry Truman aware of the future consequences of that action? Pearl harbour was a naval base. It was part of the military. It was not a civilian institution. I know, the Japs were crazy people to attack Pearl Harbour in the first place, for no reason. I want to ask this question because I don't think that the innocent should pay the consequences of war. I know its the past, but many Japs still have memories. I think that the action also had many unforseen consequences that still affect us today. Read my paragraphs properly! PS. I have lived in Japan for 2 years.
What was the US justification in bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki? If President Truman knew that there were large amounts of civilians in both cities, why did he okay the bombings without sending out civilian warning like he did before? Also, after the two bombings and witnessing the A bombs' destructive powers, why did he decide to bomb Japan once a week until they surrendered? I fail to see how the 2350 deaths(mainly military) from Pearl Harbor justified the nearly 400,00 civilian deaths in Japan, plus a plan to continue the attacks using nuclear weapons until Japan fell to the ocean floor or surrendered.
Why was the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki unjustifiable during WWII? It has been asked many times on Yahoo answers why was the bombing of these two cities justifiable. To all those who say it wasn't I want to hear your side. I want you to prove to me why it wasn't justifiable in terms of civilian and military reasons from both Japanese and American perspectives. Also those who are going say Japan was about to surrender I want to see the proof of it. The USA was readying plans for Operation Downfall, the planned invasion of Japan. Please read up in this prior to answering to give yourself incite into the alternative. Please realize I am for the bombings as they saved millions of lives. I want you to change my mind.
Why doesn't the USA apologize to Japan for the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? The indescrimanate killing of civilian men, women, children and babies was not necessary to defeat Japan! Japan was already being defeated and the war would be won soon. The real reason why they dropped the bomb was to show off to the Russians that the US had a new weapon! Japan has apologised to China and other Asian nations for the killings and mistreatement of civilians during WW2. Shouldn't the USA apologise too?
Was the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki justified? We know for a fact that Japan killed more Chinese in Nangjing than the combined total killed by the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagisaki. We most of the people killed by the Japanese in China and other Asian coutries were civilians. We know that they gang raped Korean and Chinese women. Should the world really be apologists for Hiroshima?
Biggest Terrorists here is a question for you, are you feeling proud of Hiroshima/Nagasaki bombing? And hundreds of thousand of Iraqi and Afganistan killings Everybody know the fact, who is biggest terrorists, but people don't have dare to face you illegals because they fear with your power You bad people who make every illegal relationship and even don't feel shame to walk naked on beaches and even having sex in public You bad people killed innocent people in Hiroshima and Nagasaki - still you people want to rule this world..? You biggest terrorists, what will left in US if people started killing 100 people for their one brother and sister died in IRAQ and Afganistan - yes I think you left in minus - may be thats the reason they excuse you, to make use of 1:100 till you expand You people just want to ruin this world and cultures I think they should not wait and start punishing you people for your crimes Don't you think so ...? **Everybody is jealous of our success and standard of living. This is one of the answer, what success you have..? You are just like cheaters, who earn resources and technology - on gun point And I don't think any wise man need clarifications for that - unfortunately - hell is your last and permanent place I don't know when World War III will happen - but I assume it will - may be by the time I will not be here to see - but I am not interested to see other values creatures other than those evil people should suffer because of atomic bombing and there is need to invent something that kills only those evils and leave others
