Answer:

No. The attack on Pear Harbor was strategic, it wiped out military and water defense America had hold of. The Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings were not strategical. Furthermore, the bombs hardly took put any military bases or men in the battle. It just left millions without families and homes in a war they had no part of. They were forced to ration food and many of them had nothing in the end. If America wanted to act smart then we should have went for a military base. We destroyed all the aspects we work so hard on.

Step-by-step explanation:

I studied these bombings and the aftermath and its not pretty unless you like hundreds of innocent children dead.
