Answer 5

Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, so we dropped the a-bomb on Japan. Not sure how many suffered radiation sickness, but there were many.

Answer 6

japan bombed pearl harbor because at that point, the us was trying to stay out of world war two, but britain and other allies were trying to get the us to come in and help them.  japan believed that it was a matter of time before the us came to britain's aid.  they wanted to hurt the us before that happened.

there wasn't radiation sickness, just a lot of soldiers who died.  the radiation sickness came in when the us bombed japan (hiroshima and nagasaki) as retaliation for japan bombing pearl harbor.

Answer 8

it was japan and we all know it! but it could have been germany too as far as america was concerned. didn't they lay their wrath on europe following the bombing?

and no radiation at that time yet. it wasn't a nuclear bomb that was dropped. that wasnt invented yet.

we all get confused with history.

Answer 9

Because their compass was made in The Philippines by a Soviet company that later invented the internet and poligrip.  The compass malfunctioned on every airplane causing the pilots to fly too low making crop circles in the Bermuda triangle.  That swirling action started the first typhoon and that typhoon made the bombs miss the target by 9372 miles. Got it?

Answer 10

Are you in school?  I just want to say education, and even a little history is good.  Read up  on the Germany bombing of Pearl Harbor in a search engine.  Really... type that in, and see what pops for ya.

Answer 11

Germany did not bomb pearl harbor mate. It was the Japanese Imperial Navy which bombed Pearl on the morning of December 7, 1941 where over 300 planes which consisted of dive bombers,fighter planes and torpedo planes in two seperate waves. Approximately 2500 people died and about 1200 were wounded. They did not use the Atom bomb as it wasn't even invented at the time.

America used the first Atom bomb on Hiroshima on August the 6th 1945. Killing more than 80 000 in the intial blast but by the end of the year somwhere between 90-140 000 died of radiation sickness. It's rather ironic how this all came to be as America was considered a weak military force during 1941 but by 1945 they were not to be screwed with. Though the bomb is still a touchy issue for many people it achieved its purpose by ending the war quickly even though it was blantant murder on a scale that warfare has yet to repeat.

Thought I would correct your question with what I knew.

Answer 12

I am German and have become quite irritated by so many asking me which part of the USA that Germany  is in  

Answer 13

pardon me but wasn't it japan that attacked pearl harbor? and

germany attacked london?

however, it was america that bombed japan (nagasaki and hiroshima) with the most awesome bombs ever invented at that time and which stopped the war.

as to bomb casualties - millions suffered from the effects of the bombs, effects that were only manifested several years later from the time the bombs were dropped.

Answer 14

Japan was expanding into the East Indies and thought that the US moving their naval base from San Diego to Pearl Harbor was a sign of the US asserting itself for conflict. Therefore, they attacked the base.

Answer 15

Every part of those 2 questions is wrong, sorry.

Answer 16

you have the wrong information. Japan bombed pearl harbor. so the U.S. bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki back. many suffered. idk how much but a lot. I have no idea where you got this Germany stuff from

Answer 17

I see you have a top notch education and I commend your teachers , parents and you for such an intelligent question . Now , I have some Atlantic Ocean front property in downtown Bagio I can sell you . Bring your parents and teachers ; they may want a few thousand square meters of this property too

Answer 18

Is this what you call a sick sense of humor?  It isn't funny.

Answer 19

In that timeline version,  the European Union and the American Union had some irreconcilable differences in union policies, and as a result the lead state of the EU, Germany, made pre-emptive attacks on American bases.   Morbidity rate in Hawaii and neighboring Pacific islander nations was 88 percent.

In that timeline also, I believe the Far East Asian Federation had to intervene and wiped out both unions and outlawed any union to go on strike anywhere in the world.

Answer 20
