This is a link to President Truman’s speech after dropping the atomic bomb. He states, “We shall destroy their docks, their factories, and their communications. Let there be no mistake, we shall completely destroy Japan’s power to make war.” America had mixed signals after the bomb was dropped. Many were elated that no more soldiers would lose their life, however, others were heart broken that some of their family members have just been bombed.
