5.Because the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor.
سے طرف کی dropping the bomb.....
.....the US wouldn't be invading Japan. No invasion means no US lives lost.
.....war ended in Aug 1945. Emperor agrees to surrender thus stopping all Japanese military and civilian fighting (except those hiding in caves who never hear that the war is over. One guy was found in a cave in the 1950s یا 60s and sent ہوم to Japan where he received a superhero's welcome).
.....Japanese dead and wounded limited to Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Invasion of Japan, code named"Operation Downfall", and not dropping the bomb.......
....Estimates of up to 250,000-500,000 dead and wounded Americans in the 2 phases of the invasions and the ensuing fighting. Upwards of 1,000,000 Japanese dead and wounded, civilian and military. Civilians were receiving military training in order to assist in defending against the impeding invasion.
....Phase 1 of the invasion, code named "Operation Olympic", was scheduled for Oct 45 with Phase 2, code named "Operation Coronet", was scheduled for March 46. No estimate دیا for the end of the war.
....Even after"defeat" of Japan, US Military leadersin Wash DC believed that Japan would begin an insurgency campaign that could last until the early to mid-1950s. (Just like the Philippines from 1899-1902 and Iraq today) In order to save millions of lives and put an end toa very costly war for all. The United States decision to drop the atom bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki saved an estimated one million American lives and millions of japanese lives, which would havebeen sacrificed سے طرف کی an invasion of Japan according to the Pentagon's رپورٹ to President Harry Truman.
مجموعی طور پر it was a large number of factors combined that caused the decision.

OMFG WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU?!?!?!?
This سوال is so stupid if I hadn't been personally affected سے طرف کی the whole Japan war crap I'd just have reported this question...

ANyways alright, little history lesson.

Japan bombed Pearl Harbor for no reason at all, they just wanted to be as powerful as Hitler.
Then, Japan took over the Dutch colony Dutch-Indonesia. (Which is now Indonesia) and put Dutch-Indonesian people such as my grandfather in camps and because my grandfather was strong he wasn't killed سے طرف کی the Japanese and they forced him to work. So they made him cook چاول for the other people in the work camps the Japanese put up. But there were also sick and old people there, so he gave them a larger amount of food so they wouldn't die.
For that, he had 3 gunshot wounds in his leg. Each one shot سے طرف کی a Japanese soldier.

If America hadn't bombed Hiroshima that war would have never ended and I'd be speaking Japanese now.

Sure it's horrible what happened with Hiroshima but Japan had it coming. آپ should ask yourself what the fuck was wrong with Japan.

I'm going to correct your history for a سیکنڈ chaann94. Japan bombed Pearl Harbor to make sure that no one could stop their domination in the sea.

Yeah but they followed Hitler's example. So they wanted to dominate the sea the way Hitler was "dominating"

Japan bombed Pearl Harbour, because they felt threatened سے طرف کی America and there was some feud between them about some resource I can't remember.
Obviously America fought back, resulting in the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Thanks to Japan bombing Pearl Harbour America joined the war.

Um... did آپ know that this was World War 2?
Americans knew that a blockade of Japan would never work since they continued to fight. So that meant that US troops would have to invade mainland Japan. Everyone knew that a lot of US troops would be killed. Harry S. Truman wanted to avoid that, and at that time, the atomic bomb was tested in a desert in New Mexico, and it was successful. When told about the test, he decided to use the weapon.

That's one of the reasons why American used the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

WHAT the fuck is wrong with you? Actually read a history book. IN WW2 Japan bombed America. We didn't start it. -__- Read a book یا do research on the web and don't take everything from cartoons یا عملی حکمت literally.

Also you're asking what is wrong with America. It was a fucking war. Things like that happen in war.
