Today In 1945 United States Dropped The Atomic Bomb At Hiroshima by Owenani: 4:52am On Aug 06, 2022
The second world war was drawing on and it seems the Japanese people would not make it come to an end. Peace was really absent from the world and there was tension everywhere.

The Japanese came to bomb Pearl harbor a city in the US in December 7, 1941. President Truman and the Americans were not happy about this.

So he ordered the production of a very destructive bomb that was called the atomic bomb and was designed and produced by an association of scientists and military engineers.

This project was called the Manhattan Project and prominent scientists like Enrico Fermi and Albert Einstein were the lead scientists in the commission.

Both men were actually the inventors of the atomic bomb. They termed it a very destructive weapon that could destroy a very large area such as a city. And it was true because the bomb had a devastating effect on Japan.

On August 6th, 1945 the American airforce dropped the atomic bomb (they called little boy) on the city of Hiroshima from a fighter aircraft at a very high altitude.

It was really destructive and almost half or a third of the city was gone and a hundred thousand Japanese killed.

The Americans were waiting for the Japanese government to surrender but were delaying their surrender may be because they were stubborn.

President Truman was not happy that they did not surrender and had to give another order that many atomic bombs should be dropped on strategic Japan cities.

On August 9th, 1945 the second atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki and a third of the city and about 50,000 Japanese people were killed.

The American president and people did not have to wait for a day before the Japanese emperor announced an unconditional surrender of Japan.

His country and people were devasted, confused, and in great fear. And he had to surrender because if he didn't he would have led to the total destruction of the Japanese people.

Were the Americans right when they almost destroyed the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? I would say they are right because the Japanese airforce first attacked and bombed Pearl harbor.

The counter attack of the US using atomic bombs was a very good military, political, and social decision. It ended a lingering 6 years world war in just 3 or 4 days. What a good thing the Americans did.

The Americans are happy that they ended the war they did not want to get involved in but are not happy that they had to destroy parts of Japan and a lot of Japanese people.

Though president Truman said it was a hard decision but he had to take it and he said he would take it again to create a situation of real peace in the world. He is right.

When Japan was making noise....

USA is not a country you play coy with... seebthe kind of missile that took out Ayman Zawahiri, or Jihadi John or Colonel Soleimani.

Just that most USA officials still fear God, so they try to minimize civilian casualty that why some people take them for granted... if they had the mind of Russia, China, Arab or Israel, many countries would have been destroyed....

Well, that's why they are called God's own country, and that why thr antichrist and its agents are trying to destroy the USA from within, but its not the alloted time yet.

The war between super powers will be a 50 - 50 chance of victory. That is it can be won by US or China.

Because the country that attacks first with its nuclear warheads is going to be the country that will defeat or destroy the other.

Although I have heard of missile interception technology it still comes down to luck and more importantly God's plan for the future. The missile could be missed or there may be malfunction in the launch or a change of mind.

The important thing is world peace as agreed by the superpowers and the countries of the world in the UN charter.

And I hope they will abide by it because the peace is getting fragile everyday.

And every country wants to have nuclear warheads. I think it may end in a third world war and eventually annihilation.

The US has tried on earth in the course of its existence in world politics, world peace, world economy, world technology, religion, education, the rights of man, economic assistance to third world countries, finding another home in terms of going to the Moon, Mars etc.,

They have been a nice country and will be a nice country. But something is inevitable they will go down for Antichrist to take over.

They are contrary to one another and the US can not work with the Antichrist.

He is coming with his own government and system to lead the whole world in the lost path.

Truth is Russia and China are 2 countries that are being prepared for a remarkable event in the history of the earth.

They are a type of peoples that other people do not understand. For instance to think of war in the world now in 2022 is really a strange thing but Russia is in war with Ukraine.

So you can understand the kind of people the Russians are. And China is in alliance with them.

You understand, too that they are not christians and will not understand certain things that will prolong the world peace then and even now.
