    Nike System Effectiveness

    A development that could have been preventable through possible disarmament negotiations after the war, had the US not underestimated the USSR. Considering the aftermath of World War II, the USSR had lost an estimate of 22 million lives and had large decimated areas of land. The US couldn’t possibly see the USSR as a military threat due to the heavy casualties the nation had sustained. In all likeliness, the US may have thought that “nuclear diplomacy” would be enough to quell the USSR if the need arose. A decade later the USSR had displayed its very own jet-bomber called the Mya-4 “Bison”. In 1955, an American air force attache, had observed twice the number of Bisons that were estimated to have been made. This jet-bomber was far more capable of inflicting injury upon the US than the Tu-4, and to further the anxiety of the US, the USSR had detonated its first thermonuclear weapon in…

    Nuclear Bomb Dbq

    U.S. President Harry S. Truman publicly announced his decision to support the development of the hydrogen bomb, a weapon theorized to be hundreds of times more powerful than the atomic bombs dropped on Japan during World War II. He approved of the funding for the nuclear weapon because of several events prior to his public announcement. One of the reasons was the fact that the United States had lost its nuclear supremacy when the Soviet Union successfully detonated an atomic bomb at their test site in Kazakhstan in 1949. Another reason why he decided to fund experiments for nuclear weapons is because the British and U.S. intelligence discovered that Klaus Fuchs, a top-ranking scientist in the U.S. nuclear program, was a spy for the Soviet Union.…

    The Pros And Cons Of Atomic Bombs

    The only military use of atomic weapons has been on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and almost certainly brought a prompt conclusion to WW2. However, the question of whether it was necessary is still hotly debated 70 years after the event. The answer is no it wasn’t necessary, although it is not as simple as you may think because if I had just been a soldier fighting in New Guinea or if I was a POW starving on the Thai-Burma railway [1] then answer is yes it was necessary. Necessary can have various meanings though such as indispensable or requisite, but also mean acting from need. The question becomes very problematic or ambiguous if one uses both meanings as again we get a yes and no.…

    Duck and Cover

    The nine minute 1951 movie Duck and Cover teaches children what to do in the case of a nuclear attack against America. During this film, several scenarios are given where adults and children, families and men working in the field are encountering a nuclear attack.

    How Post-World War Ii Technology Changed America

    After Dwight D. Eisenhower left office, he warned about the growing influence of the military-industrial complex, in American government and life. The military-industrial complex was first coined by Eisenhower, during his farewell address in 1961. This complex defines the combined effort of big business and the military to press for an ever-increasing share of national resources for the development of new weapons. Many politicians during this time believed that the military-industrial complex promoted policies that were not in the best interest for America, and that the growth of the military-industrial complex could perhaps undermine American democracy. The Cold War had created a warfare state.…

    Atomic Bomb Dbq

    In 1945 Harry S. Truman decided to use the atomic bomb not only once, but twice to finish World War Two. The first bomb that was dropped on Hiroshima August, 6th killed upwards to around 80,000 people and the second bomb dropped on Nagasaki August, 14th killed 40,000 people. The controversy of the atomic bomb is because of the amount of innocent people that were killed in Japan. Nobody will ever know the outcome of the war if we never dropped the bomb, but we do know that the war was ended because of it. Over 100,000 people lost their lives because of these bombs, but how many lives would have been lost if we never dropped them? That is the other question that can never be answered, but based…

    In Europe, the war with Germany was over but Japan was still fighting. So the U.S could concreted on the war with Japan. The U.S had atomic bombs ready and a decision had to be made; should they sent ground forces to invade Japan or should they bomb Japan. So on August 1945 the U.S decided to drop atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and this created some controversy. Some people though it was a good idea to bomb Japan, while others say that 200,000 innocent people were killed. I believe that bombing the two cities was the right decision because it did save the lives of many U.S soldiers and it ended World War II.…
