Yes both Hiroshima and Nagasaki were preventable.
What happened after hiroshima and nagasaki was bombed. A small conventional raid on Nagasaki on August 1st had resulted in a partial evacuation of the city especially of school children. On Hiroshima Day wishing for all of us a life filled with peace empathy and compassion. Because of the two atomic bombs untold thousands of lives American AND Japanese were saved.
John Herseys Hiroshima is an incredible first-hand account of the experience of six fortunate survivors of the terrible event that happened on Monday August 6 1945 the atomic bombing of Hiroshima by the American military. What happened at places like Shiloh Vicksburg and Georgia in the 19th century and what happened at places like Hiroshima Nagasaki and many other places in the 20th century I fear will happen to places like mecca medina Riyadh Karachi and many other places in the 21st century. I dont see Japan doing that at Pearl Harbor nor American soldiers asked to be bombed that day.
But despite the sheer destruction of the Tokyo air raids unlike for Hiroshima or Nagasaki there is no publicly funded museum in Japans capital today to officially commemorate March 10. I also dont see the Japanese military doing that after conducting military operations. Within five days around 140000 people died.
However the Japanese chose NOT to prevent them. Truman presidente de los Estados Unidos contra el Imperio del JapónLos ataques se efectuaron el 6 y el 9 de agosto de 1945 respectivamente. Hiroshima was bombed on the morning of August 6 1945.
There were still almost 200000 people in the city below the bomb when it exploded. Each source realized that communication was lost but they didnt realize the ALL communication was lost. Well the Nagasaki mission did not go nearly as smooth as Hiroshima.

Their goal was destruction and spectacle to show the Japanese the Soviets and the whole world what the potential of this new weapon was.
