Best Answer

Those against the dropping of the atomic bomb point out that Japan was near to surrendering anyway. They explain that the fierce resistance the USA was experiencing was Japan's final efforts. They identify that the dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima was basically an attack on the civilian population who had no hope of survival. Those against the bomb also suggest that the bomb was more of a test and a show of American power to their main rival the USSR. A second bomb was dropped a week later - a different type of bomb - some suggest that this is proof it was more of an experiment than anything else. Most significantly hundreds of thousands suffered radiation poisoning as a result of the bomb - even those not born at the time.
