1. History is valuable for learning how the world works. Certain people want some things, others want the opposite things, the conflicts and compromises that occur are very interesting. Government is a great tool but ''no''body '''really''' knows how to use it correctly. The individual facts are helpful, but the general lessons are critical in transactions with other people. There's not really a subject in school: "How to live with your fellow Man", but an insightful student of history may pick up on some of those aspects.

Going to war sooner, would obviously have been better for the allies, but it would also have angered most Americans. What

2. The Japanese attack on Pearl Harbour makes it, to say the least, very difficult to argue that we should not have enter World War II, whether or not any Americans knew of the attack beforehand. Going to war sooner, would obviously have been better for the allies, but it would also have angered most Americans. I imagine if FDR had lead us to war with the rest of Europe, before Japan attacked, Wendell Willkie had won in the 1940 election. That probably would not have turned out so bad, actually. The only problem might have been that the war in Europe would have ended wa-aay before the atomic bomb was ready, so the Pacific war could have been bloodier than otherwise. Overall, I think hindsight shows us that the best that could have possibley occured in World War II, considering the circumstances, happened in order to make the United States a superpower afterward, according to God's big-picture plan.

6. Yes, we definitely should have dropped the atomic bombs on Japan. While some sorces believe that Japan was going to surrender anyway, whether or not we had bombed them, I don't think they would have. We see in Okinawa the Japanese never backed down and they certainly weren't going to give up their own homes, no matter what they said.
