President Truman good job!
It is clear by the evidence presented here that dropping the bomb shortened the war. Look at Japan today, they agree. Only a fool would disagree.

VERY Interesting film about the lead up to the U.S.'s decision to drop the atomic bomb on Japan. Filled with fascinating interviews both on the Japan side and the U.S. side, this leads to an impression that perhaps dropping the bomb wasn't really necessary. Oppenheimer especially looks guilt ridden about the whole thing.
