The American government at the time was the only one in the world to possess the power of the atomic bomb.\u00a0 This advantage was short-lived as Russia would soon follow with their own tests and version of the atom bomb and the nuclear age would be born.\u00a0 The atomic bomb accelerated Russian fears of U.S. world dominance after World War II which drove them to create their own nuclear arsenal.\u00a0 There was also Russia\u2019s attitude of ascendancy on the world stage after beating back the German army at substantial costs to their own country; costs which Russia believed were much higher than the ones paid by the United States during the war.\u00a0 Hindsight is always 20\/20, but I think that if the U.S. had known more about the effects of atomic radiation, they would have taken more time to reconsider the use of the atomic bomb.\u00a0 I have not ever considered what the decision to drop the atomic bombs had on the use of executive power.\u00a0 I always thought that it was a necessity of war and a choice made as a measure of last resort given the projected casualty estimates of a conventional land invasion of the Japanese home islands.\u00a0 It was the kind of \u201cus versus them\u201d decision that is often made in war from the battlefield all the way up through the halls of power in Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n
