The atomic bomb

I believe that the atomic bomb video does a really good job showing the facts and observations of the days leading up to the bomb, the day of the bomb, and the bombs affects. I also believe that they did a good job showing both sides of the bomb, instead of just the americans. Unlike the clip we watched in class, this video seemed unbiased because they used interviews which showed japanese and american opinions. The opinions are also very diverse. One man thinks that the atomic bomb was the right thing to do because it potentially saved thousands of lives, yet others think quite the opposite. Whether dropping the bomb was or wasn't the right thing to do, this video gives you enough information to allow you to decide whether it was right of wrong.
