<p>Okay guys I know this for sure. NSC-68 called for massive military buildup and spending to contain communism.</p>
<p>You're right acacia, give yourself a pat. on. the. back. :)</p>
<p>yup...and asked for the creation of the hydrogen bomb</p>
<p>And who developed the H-Bomb?</p>
<p>you got me on that one...wasn't it just an "American team"?</p>
<p>ok i have a ques.
1. Which event triggered the Civil War? Were the actions justified?</p>
<p>Furthermore, why was the U.S. government so desperate to create the bomb a.s.a.p.?</p>

A deliverable bomb was subsequently developed and successfully tested in 1954. The Soviet Union tested a hydrogen bomb on August 12, 1953, and the British followed on May 15, 1957.

A bunch of scientists?</p>
<p>because the Soviets had just developed the atomic bomb 4 years after the US..when we projected it would take them at least 10</p>
<p>"A bunch of scientists" centered in Manhatten.</p>
<p>U.S. govt so desperate to make bomb a.s.a.p.
President Harry S. Truman, spurred by the growing cold war, ordered a crash program to build the hydrogen bomb in February 1950.</p>

<li>Which event triggered the Civil War? Were the actions justified?]</li>
</ol>
<p>just ONE event? wow..there are SOOO many...which are you looking for?</p>
<p>Hey wasn't Albert Einstein Part of the group that developed H-Bomb?</p>
<p>Um, SC declared secession?</p>
<p>acacia, that may be one reason, but I was looking more for "because we didn't want the Nazis to get it first."</p>
<p>"because the Soviets had just developed the atomic bomb 4 years after the US..when we projected it would take them at least 10"
-quoting myself...I really think that's why we wanted a hydrogen bomb</p>
<p>i m looking for the key event that officially triggered the Civil War...</p>
<p>I thought he [A.Einstein] was part of the group in the Manhattan Project to develop the atomic bomb.</p>
<p>WOAH....Nazis and the hydrogen bomb??!! The hydrogen bomb was in the Cold War period...wayyy after the fall of Nazism</p>
<p>or am I wrong?</p>
<p>Yeah akai I think you're thinking of the atomic bomb, because that was developed in the Manhattan Project.</p>
<p>Akai...my original question was about the HYDROGEN bomb...are you now talking about the atomic bomb?</p>
