Do you feel like we can judge Truman's decision? Why or why not? (WW2)

Truman did have a tough decision to make, but out of the interest of the American people, I believe that he had put the sake of American lives over Japanese lives. It would make sense obviously because the country is at war with Japan. Any American president in that situation would choose American lives over Japanese. Does this mean the decision was a good one? Not necessarily, it's still being debated and for good reasons. Yes, Truman had the decision not to bomb Japan but it was inevitable. Again, it does not justify his decision. So yes people should judge his decision.

the captain of a steam ship naturally chooses the shortest route to his destination. since a sailing ship is usually pushed by winds and currents, its captain must find a route where the wind will probably blow in the right direction. tacking, i.e. using contrary wind to pull (sic) the sails, was always possible but wasted time because of the zigzagging required, and this would significantly delay long voyages. the early european explorers were not only looking for new lands. they also had to discover the pattern of winds and currents that would carry them where they wanted to go. during the age of sail winds and currents determined trade routes and therefore influenced european imperialism and modern political geography. for an outline to the main wind systems see global wind patterns.

pilotage or cabotage, in one sense, is the art of sailing along the coast using known landmarks. navigation, in one sense, is the art of sailing long distances out of sight of land.[1] although the polynesians were able to sail the pacific (with great difficulty) and people regularly sailed north and south across the mediterranean, before the time of columbus nearly all sailing was coastal pilotage
