B. There are arguments for and against the dropping of atomic bombs on Japan, and it is not clear if the United States was justified in using such weapons
C. The dropping of atomic bombs on Japan was justified because there was no guarantee that Japan would have surrendered otherwise
D. Over 200.000 Japanese people were likely killed because of the atomic bomb attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and many more were wounded​

Respuesta :

Answer: C. The dropping of atomic bombs on Japan was justified because there was no guarantee that Japan would have surrendered otherwise

Explanation:

The question seems to be asking for your own personal opinion on the matter and then asking you to justify that opinion.

The first two options would have been good answers but they are relying on the thoughts of other historians and arguments. Option C on the other hand, is a personal opinion which is then backed up by the supporting reasoning that there was no guarantee that Japan would surrender.

It therefore answers the question best.
