Your ideas? Hitler = made mistakes with Suez Canal and Operation Barbarossa Hitler physically ill…mentally ill also? Germany out- produced by Allies FDR, Churchill and Stalin let Generals do the work

FDR dies April 12, 1945 Unprepared Harry Truman takes over… Truman will be much more blunt & confrontational than FDR was –Good for what?

Okinawa is the last major battle against Japan Kamikaze planes (suicide planes dw) reveal something to USA –Japan will fight to the death –Japanese propaganda

Top Secret plan to build Atomic Bomb As VP, Truman didn’t know about it When inaugurated, he was finally told Bat Bomb 

Truman tells Stalin of Atomic Bomb (?) Truman gets Stalin’s support to beat Japan –Does he want it? Warning issued to Japan to surrender unconditionally –Japan has no answer Poland????

2 Options –Drop A-Bomb (pro/con) –Invade with US army (pro/con) Is time on his side?

Hiroshima, Aug 6, 1945 Nagasaki, Aug 9, 1945 Death toll? –At least 100K –Some estimates at 200K V-J Day follows –victory in Japan

1.Rebuilding Japan and Germany 2.United Nations created 3.Nuremburg Trials

Germany = 4 occupation zones GB, USA, France and Russia will rebuild

Version 2.0 of what org? –League of Nations 50 Countries join 1945 Goal? –Peace...no war –Human rights UN Security Council made up of 5 winners of WW2…veto power  –USA –GB –France –USSR –China

24 Nazis on trial –16 charged with war crimes “Crimes against Humanity” –12 sentenced to death, 3 life sentences Effects of Trials = political and military leaders held accountable for Holocaust Justice?

Cold War Europe is in shambles –In whose image will it be rebuilt?
