In 1945 the United States made a history making decision to drop atomic weapons on Japan, which essentially ended United States involvement in World War II. The decision to use these types of weapons has been put under a great deal of scrutiny as to its true necessity and its misery it inflected. The government has continuously presented the idea that it was because of the Atomic bombs millions of lives were saved but others say it was just a way to threaten and build fear in the Soviet Union. This decision to employ the bombs will remain a controversial topic in our society, because even to this day we are having to deal with the repercussions of it.  Which raises the question of, If the United States had the opportunity would they do it again?
