from Hiroshima

In 1945 U.S. forces dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. Write an editorial about the use of nuclear weapons during World War II. Use the Internet or go to a library to find further information on nuclear weapons and the bombings of Japan. Imagine that it is 1946—the year after the war ended. In your editorial, you should support or condemn the use of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima. Your purpose is to persuade readers to share your opinion. You should appeal to both reason and emotion in your editorial.
