    The detonation was marked by an ‘intense flash of light and searing wave of heat’ that instantly killed thousands. Those who were close to the explosion either burnt to ash or completely disintegrated and many were blinded by the flash or had suffered from severe burns. The bomb had demolished almost every single building within an 18 square kilometre radius and soon after, nuclear fallout in the form of black rain descended in a sticky, dark matter. This contaminated water sources such as rivers and was also ingested by breathing which caused radioactive poisoning. Similarly, the bomb dropped on Nagasaki killed up to 80,000 people which left them defenseless eventually leading to Japan’s unconditional surrender to the United…

    From a military standpoint it was not necessary as the Japanese were ready to collapse; it was only necessary in order to allow the US to get what they want. Document H speaks to this, dismissing the American claim that its use was necessary to end the war and thus causing the Document 's critique of the decision as making America "the arch-enemy of humanity" to be not far off the mark, as the evidence suggests that America cared not for Japan or its people but only for how to advance American interests. From a scientific standpoint, the power of the bomb was already known and needed not to be tested again, let alone on actual people. Finally, any positive diplomatic effects the bomb might have brought about were either nonexistent or overshadowed by the cost of the moral high-ground the US enjoyed before its use: tensions with the Soviets worsened, the Cold War became inevitable, and millions of people were affected.

(Document L) The Enola Gay was the plane that dropped the first atomic weapon on Hiroshima.
