2- The correct answer is A. Many Americans approved of the use of atomic weapons on Japan despite their destructive power because they believed it would shorten the war and ultimately save American lives. In 1945 up to 85% of Americans supported the use of the nuclear bombs, since they believed that a strict and devastating bombing was the only way to force Japan to surrender without sacrificing more American lives.
