Hiroshima - Nagasaki Atomic bombing 1945 Aug

The atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nuclear attacks near the end of World War II against the Empire of Japan by the United States at the executive order of U.S. President Harry S. Truman on August 6 and August 9, 1945, respectively. After six months of intense fire-bombing of 67 other Japanese cities, followed by an ultimatum which was ignored by the Shōwa regime, the nuclear weapon "Little Boy" was dropped on the city of Hiroshima on Monday, August 6, 1945, followed on August 9 by the detonation of the "Fat Man" nuclear bomb over Nagasaki. These are to date the only attacks with nuclear weapons in the history of warfare The bombs killed as many as 140,000 people in Hiroshima and 80,000 in Nagasaki by the end of 1945, roughly half on the days of the bombings. Amongst these, 1520% died from injuries or the combined effects of flash burns, trauma, and radiation burns, compounded by illness, malnutrition and radiation sickness Since then, more have died from leukemia (231 observed) and solid cancers (334 observed) attributed to exposure to radiation released by the bombs. In both cities, the majority of the dead were civilians. Six days after the detonation over Nagasaki, on August 15, Japan announced its surrender to the Allied Powers, signing the Instrument of Surrender on September 2, officially ending the Pacific War and therefore World War II. (Germany had signed its unavoidable[2] Instrument of Surrender on May 7, ending the war in Europe.) The bombings led, in part, to post-war Japan adopting Three Non-Nuclear Principles, forbidding that nation from nuclear armament.

@TheShockerKnocker the reason being is because when japan tried to make peace with terms america didnt accept it because they need to test out how powerful the atomic bomb was then like 1 month later they accepted the terms

Siwwy Japanese :) good try at pearl harbor that lasted for a week, we still have radiation killing you ;) that's why your slant eye offspring are so fucked up

Maybe if you knew a lot of stuff about the war more than the basics you would know why they dropped them

[TheShockerKnocker]

japanese are so lucky they easily died with atomic bombs.

ASIANS and some whites DIE THE MOST CRUEL AND EVIL DEATH beyond reckon through the hands of thousands of japanese people

girls, young old and infants raped to death, objects inserted to vagina like bottles, cranes, guns etc, breasts pumped, bayoneted

shops and houses robbed,

japanese used chinese victims as guinea pig for medical experiments, removed bones, opened skulls, etc without anesthesia

filipina women raped and men killed

Nagasaki was -the- epicenter of Christianity in Japan. There is much more behind this than is commonly known.
