war 2
Текст Раскадровки
- Germany surrendered partially because the US flexed our muscles with the bombings of Japan. The allied forces were advancing from the west and the Soviets were attacking from the east. Their resources whipped out and they surrendered.
- The US had problems with the soviet union, but with ww2 it brought them together. It was a necessity and they realized that they needed each other in order to destroy, "the most dangerous and destructive forces of the twentieth century." https://2001-2009.state.gov/r/pa/ho/pubs/fs/46345.htm
- The Manhattan Project was the first atomic bomb made. It not only helped ww2 end but started the atomic era. This determined how the next war would be fought, The Cold War.https://www.energy.gov/lm/doe-history/manhattan-project-background-information-and-preservation-work
- The bombing of Hiroshima is the first atomic bomb strike from the US, it killed up to 40,000 people. It was to save American lives and quickly put world war 2 to an end. "It has been suggested that the second objective was to demonstrate the new weapon of mass destruction to the Soviet Union."https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/american-bomber-drops-atomic-bomb-on-hiroshima
- 3 days after Hiroshima another atomic bomb was used on Nagasaki. It was once again used to try to end world war 2 and save American lives. There is mention of the US getting the higher arm with the soviets.https://www.history.com/news/hiroshima-nagasaki-second-atomic-bomb-japan-surrender-wwii
- With low supplies and the bombings, the only choice was for Japan to surrender. They were thinking about surrendering before the bombings, so once we bombed it confirmed it.
