Activity 3
Pretend to be Harry Truman. Justify the use of Atomic Bombs on Japanese Empire
during the WWII and present what could have been the best options/alternatives other
than resorting to bombings.

For the first time in history, I, Harry Truman, justify the use of the atomic bomb
unleashed on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan as President of the United States in
1945, in the midst of World War II. Perhaps they were already aware of their defeat
before surrendering, and they were split between submitting and fighting to the last end.
They finally opted to fight, culminating in massive tragedy for humanity. Truman
demonstrated the necessity of considering the lives of his people despite the obvious
consequences of his dreadful judgments, striving to save the lives of thousands upon
thousands of Americans. He considered the atomic bomb as a military weapon and
never had any doubt it should be utilized. Harry Truman always stood by his decision to
drop the atomic bomb because he had intelligence and data that stated that a million
american lives would have to be sacrificed if a ground war was to continue against
japan. There would be much more Japanese casualties.

In regard to this, the following are the options and alternatives other than turning to
bombings:
1) Continue conventional bombings on Japanese cities.
2) Attack Japan
3) Drop the bomb on an uninhabited island.
ACTIVITY 4
Present a schema-illustrator about the cold war linking the formation and demise of the
USSR.

From 1945 to 1991, the Cold War was a period of economic,

political, and military warfare between the United States and
the Soviet Union. The Potsdam Conference in the summer of
1945 marked the start of the Cold War. The meeting's purpose
was to explore postwar Europe's realignment. Discussions
broke deteriorated, however, into threats.

Cold War is a continuing conflict between USSR and UN

because the both parties are apprehensive to the things they
can accomplish. The UN were terrified of communism,
comparable to USSR. There were various factors that
contributed to the demise of the USSR, including economic
insecurity, which pushed nations involved to seek
independence from the USSR.
ACTIVITY 5
Present a mind map on the Rise and Fall of the Berlin Wall showing the factors and
effects of its formation and fall to the lives of the Western populace.

what you have learned from your readings and expound on it by giving meaning to this
picture.

To enable the quick technological

advancement required to create the
bomb, extensive collaboration
between hundreds of government
departments and independent
scientists, many of whom were
refugees from fascist nations, was
required.

The project, which employed over

130,000 people, was kept secret, but
the Soviet Union learned about it
through a well-placed spy.

After several testing, the world's first

nuclear weapon was declared at the
Trinity location in the desert of
southern New Mexico. A cloud of
mushrooms extended 40k feet into
the heavens.

On July 1, 1968, the United States,

the Soviet Union, and sixty other
nations signed a deal to cease the
nuclear weapons race and achieve
disarmament.

Part II. Enumeration/Discussion. Provide what is being required under each item. Please spell
the words correctly.

1. Write a justification (Pro or Anti) on the use of nuclear war by the US against
Japan. Incorporate reports or actual accounts in presenting our arguments.
 I am opposed to nuclear war because we have previously experienced
many nuclear wars throughout history, such as in August 1945, when the
United States was still battling the country of Japan in the Second World
War. The use of nuclear weapons has negative consequences. First, 
Most of the persons killed in these two explosions were innocents.When
one nation attacks another and murders over 200,000 individuals who
are not participating in active warfare, it is possible to claim that such an
act constitutes the purposeful and systematic elimination of a national
group. Second, atomic bombs in Japan murdered American POWs.
When the atomic bombs were detonated on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a
dozen American prisoners of war were slain. When the devices went off,
they were being detained at a police station. Third, during the bombing
runs, the US also murdered Allied forces. Another eight British and Dutch
POWs were murdered during or soon after the atomic bombs were
detonated on Japan. Lastly, The heat from the bomb was so great that,  
in the explosion, several persons literally disappeared. Even more
perished of radiation  long-term sickness's repercussions. The final death
toll was estimated at 135,000. Therefore, this nuclear war was indeed a
threat, pain, and chaos as it affects life an the society as a whole. Which
is why, I am not in favor of it.

Activity 2
Write a brief treatise on the why some groups support terrorism as part of
their religious beliefs.

Terrorism in the name of religion has become the dominating model for modern
political violence. This is not to say that it is the sole paradigm; nationalism and ideology
continue to be powerful motivators for extreme conduct. However, religious extremism
has emerged as a major concern for the international world. In relation to this, some
organizations regard terrorism as a religious conviction because they are driven by
defensive motivations, others wish to assure the domination of their faith, and yet others
are motivated by an aggressive amalgamation of these impulses.

Religious terrorism can be communal, genocidal, nihilistic, or revolutionary.

However, in the modern period, religious terrorism has grown in frequency, scale of
bloodshed, and worldwide reach. Furthermore, many utilize terrorism to demonstrate
and explain their point of view, most notably their political views. There are several
major factors for the emergence of terrorism. Manufacturing of massive quantities of
machine guns, nuclear bombs, nuclear weapons, missiles, and these are fast
population expansion, people's displeasure with the country's system, lack of education,
corruption, racism, and economic disparity.

Intervention on consequences:

Different leaders take different approaches to militant assaults. That is, state officials take
precautionary measures to protect persons and organizations that may become targets of
assaults. With these, the only option to build a good approach is through global
interconnectedness, which strongly promotes unity between nations in terms of national
security formation. Furthermore, in order to combat terrorism or similar events, government
leaders should improve international coordination and knowledge exchange, resulting in a
powerful force of protection capable of preventing worst-case scenarios.
