1. Is the Hiroshima bomb
justified?
Eric and Yugi

2. The World At War
- America was attacked
by Japan on 1941 when
America did nothing.
- America joined the
World War in 1944.
- America defeated the
Nazis in Germany,
ending the war in Europe
on May 1945.

3. The World At War...
- America now focused on Japan.
- America asked Japan to surrender on
June 1945.
- Japan did not reply.
- They instead, fought till the end by
using their own people, using kamikazes
(suicide pilots) and sinking American
ships.
- America, angry, dropped an atomic
bomb on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945.
-Japan surrenders on August 14, 1945
- The bomb ended the World War.

4. Why Hiroshima is justified...
The bomb on Hiroshima
was justified in many
ways. That'll be explained
next slide.

5. Bomb on Hiroshima: Justified
• It ended the World War
• It saved a lot more time
• It saved a lot more soldier's lives and a lot more money
• It was a wiser choice as Japan was fighting on their
mainland, which is more harshly defended
• Japan used suicide pilots to sink American ships and
killed both American, and Japanese soldiers.

6. Bomb on Hiroshima: Justified
• Japan used their own citizens to defend their country
and didn't care if everyone died, causing a lot more
soldier and citizen lives
• America gave Japan 1 month to surrender. Japan replied
by driving suicide pilots into American naval ships
• Japan would probably not give mercy to anyone if they
conquered the world
• Japan's loss forced them to give independence to
conquered countries like Korea and Taiwan.

7. Hiroshima bomb: NOT justified
• This side is the side where it says that America
should not drop the bomb.
• They could have do it the other way not just
dropping a bomb and killed a ton of Japanese
people.

8. Reason 1: Killed 100 thousand people
• The bomb called "Little Boy" killed about 100
thousand innocent people.
• The Americans drop the bomb that killed
innocent that have nothing to do with the war.
• Maybe the Japanese might attack first, but
Japanese attack soldier. U.S killed innocent
people.

9. Reason 2: Radiations
• There is one thing that is almost as worse as the
bomb, which is the radiation causes after the
bomb.
• This radiation can killed people through getting
into your body and slowly develop cancer. This
radiation still happens today.

10. Reason 3: Army VS Army(Idea)
• Another reason is that if the American
would go army against army it wouldn't kill
a lot of innocent people.
• If they didn't use the bomb it will just be
soldiers killing soldiers and it will be a fair
war.
