Response to Dennis Gates
Hello Dennis, I do agree with you that Fussell was thanking God as the atomic bomb brought about the ceasing the war. The war had already brought global destruction, and a ceasefire was the only alternative and effective way to get the globe moving forward. Although, the war brought mass destruction, deaths to millions, and the use of the atomic bomb, the concept was adapted to portray the war as a necessary struggle between evil axis powers and good allied powers (Ross, 2017) . The imperial Japanese slaughtered millions in Asia while Nazi Germany killed and enslaved many in what they described as bringing new order in continental Europe. The country understood the effects of such a bomb and put it across measures to be followed in the future. No country has used a nuclear weapon on another. Lastly, morality is an integral part in studying the past, with many historians believing that morality is essential in one’s behavior and order of doing things.

Hello Camama, I agree with you that he was Fussell was probably right on the fact that the bomb saved millions that would have been killed if the war continued. The bloody horror of conflict was indeed elaborate. The Japanese were killing millions in Asia and Nazis executing the infamous holocaust. The bomb revolutionized the history of the world as it was evident the destructions that can be caused by such a weapon were inevitable (Ross, 2017) . The US also understood that using such a tactic in the war would be detrimental. There are numerous wars as the country tries to stop other countries in the Persian Gulf from using weapons (Ross, 2017) . Morality can also form a basis from which historians argue. Some believe it was necessary to drop the bomb while others view it as an act against humanity.
