Iran-Israel War: If we look at the current situation between Iran, Israel and America, it is the 21st day of this war. The eyes of the whole world are now focused on whether the third world war is going to happen? Let us tell you, during the last tenure of Donald Trump, decisions like exiting the ‘Iran Nuclear Deal’ and the assassination of General Qasim Sulemani created bitterness in the relations between Iran and America, due to which today Israel-Iran is looking at war.
If the attitude changes towards the Third World War, then Donald Trump can be attributed to it. If we turn the pages of history, it takes us to the scene of 1945, when the cruel decision to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was taken. Let us know which American President was behind that most dreadful decision of the Second World War.
Whose decision was it to drop bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
If Trump is held responsible for today’s tensions, then the cruel decision to drop atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki was taken by America’s 33rd President Harry S. Truman’s.
Who was Harry S. Truman and why did he do it?
Truman assumed the presidency after the sudden death of Franklin D. Roosevelt in April 1945. At that time, World War II was in its final stages, but Japan was not ready to surrender.
Truman had only two options, either he would launch a ground attack on Japan, which would have killed millions of American soldiers, or he would use the secret weapon that was developed under the ‘Manhattan Project’ and that was the atomic bomb.
Decision to drop atomic bombs on two cities of Japan
Truman had argued that if the United States launched a land attack on Japan, millions of American soldiers could die. To end the war immediately, he approved the use of nuclear weapons developed under the ‘Manhattan Project’.
On August 6, 1945, America dropped a uranium bomb on Hiroshima. In which approximately 80,000 people lost their lives. Exactly three days later, on August 9, 1945, the plutonium bomb was dropped on Nagasaki. In which about 40,000 people died.
World War II ended on 15 August 1945
Japan surrendered on 15 August 1945 and World War II ended, but legally and formally the war is considered to have ended on 2 September 1945.
