100,000 people killed instantly Over 50,000 die later from effects
of the bomb Radiation sickness/cancer
Slide 54
ATOMIC BOMB - DECISION Situation You are the president of the
United States. You are about to invade Japans main islands. From
experience at Okinawa and Iwo Jima, you believe the Japanese will
fight to the death and will be willing to fight for years. An
estimate of at least 400,000 Americans will die in an invasion. Now
America has in its hands a weapon equal to 20,000 tons of TNT. It
worked in a test, but it may not work when dropped out of a plane.
Possibly you can have a demonstration of the bombs power but if it
doesnt work, the Japanese resistance will harden. You also wouldnt
mind portraying this weapon to Stalin and the Soviets to make sure
they stay in line. However, the bomb could kill hundreds of
thousands of innocent, Japanese civilians. In the back of your
mind, you remember what happened at Pearl Harbor. What do you do?
Use the bomb or attack another way? Explain Why.
