Soon after the other Axis powers declared war on the United States, and we were in the war. The Prime Minister of Great Britain, Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill, was happy that we had finally joined the war. After the war ended, America finally made Hawaii a state in 1959. Some of the rumors that floated were facts, on November 30, 1941 the headlines on the Hilo Tribune Herald were “JAPAN MAY STRIKE OVER WEEKEND”, it continues to say that “Japan’s military leaders have already sent a fleet of aircraft carriers to the Hawaiian Islands.

There are two purposes provided by this speech. The first is to urge Congress to formally declare war on Japan (which they did just minutes later), and to rally the American people to support the war effort. This poen by the text when it states: “I ask that the Congress declare that since the unprovoked and dastardly attack by Japan on Sunday, December 7th, 1941, a state of war has existed between the United States and the Japanese empire”, and “the American people in their righteous might will win through to absolute victory”. In addition, the penultimate component of SOAPSTone is subject. The subject here is the Japanese attack on U.S territories in the Pacific and the commencing of war between the U.S and Japan.…
Leading up to the United States’ involvement in World War II, Japan exhibited aggressive imperialistic quests throughout Asia. After an attack on an American military base in Hawaii, the United States would enter combat in an attempt to curb the Japanese aggression. World War II consisted of battles mainly against Germany in Europe and Japan in the Pacific, and the Allies heavily relied on the United States to control the Pacific. American involvement in the Pacific eventually disabled Japanese aggression, as President Harry Truman called for the destruction of major Japanese cities via the atomic bomb. Despite an early advantage in the war, Japan was forced to surrender to the Americans, and as a result, the Allies proved victorious in the…
Harry Truman deliberately set up a team of engineers to create the most dangerous weaponry of modern warfare to “end” WWII. In reality, there are other factors that contributed to the decision of the bomb such as Pearl Harbor. Nevertheless, the bomb did fully end the war with a formal surrender by Japan’s government. However, thousands of innocent people were killed and Japan’s economic state was in turmoil. With that said, Douglas Macarthur was put in control of Japan’s reconstruction after the war.…
The men of the Vietnam war were already traumatized, at as young as eighteen, that they couldn’t handle any extra fear, embarrassment, or shame. This is the cause of many suicides or self-harming committed by soldiers who were previously in the war. This teaches the reader to be careful to what one exposes themselves to and to also be cautious to how one treats others because anyone could be experiencing large amount of emotional pain of shame, guilt, and embarrassment. Shame is a strong motivator that can affect one’s life in an instant. Tim O’Brien in, The Things They Carried, tells the many…
He now believes everyone who is strong and good does not survive. He lost too many people that he cares about and now has a pessimistic look on life. Because of the war around him, he does not the same look on life as before in life. This is the way Hemingway tries to show how war affects people. With this technique, he succeeded at showing how the war affects people.…
It caused young men to lose their innocence in a harsh environment. The war made going back to civilian life nearly impossible for the soldiers. It also introduced the negative idea of corruption into the soldier’s life. War caused many issues in society but the worst is the long term effects turama from the war has on the lives of the men fighting for their…
Japan’s mentality made it clear that withe influence of Emperor Hirohito, there would be a fight to the absolute last man in war. President Truman made the right decision to use the atomic bombs as Japan’s loyally and willingness amplified, and further drove the atomic to become inevitable to ending the war abruptly. As Hikins an expert in World War II history demonstrates the loyalty of the Japanese through early 1945 to strike at Japan 's war industries American B29’s bombarded Japan 's largest industrial cities, Instead of driving Japan to surrender, the Japanese used the air raids to aspire hatred of Americans and strengthen the will of the Japanese people to fight to the death as country (Hikins, 380). This illustrates that Japan’s surrender would have come with immense cost, as the Japanese would have relententlsy, in the presence of an American force. Similarly, with Japan’s unwillingness to accept surrender, refusal to be taken prisoner, and the traditional mentality of Japan’s population, such the Battle of Saipan, were the local population of the island jumped off cliffs or committed seppuku (suicide by disembowelment)…

At the same time in another part of the world, the United States of America was still in its era of isolationism. This era will end at 7:55 am when the Japanese decided to attack Pearl Harbor. The unprovoked attack was a reason enough to rally all the citizens of the US to join World War II. By 1945 president Truman made a radical decision that will change the course of history.…
"Hell no, no second thoughts. If you give me the same circumstances, hell yeah, I 'd do it again," exclaimed Paul Tibbets. On September 1, 1939, Germany invaded Poland which led Britain and France to declare war on Germany, Hitler 's Nazi state, which started the second world war. Due to world war 1, the United States (U.S.) passed Neutrality Acts to prevent involvements in future wars.
