The NYT's survey of opinion in 2015 on the decision to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki
08/05/2015
The survey has a range of opinions and there is no consensus on whether the bomb should or should not have been dropped. U.S. and Japanese casualties estimated as high as 400,000 for an all out invasion of Japan was one reason given when Harry Truman made the decision to drop the bomb on Japan.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
