General Douglas MacArthur, one time commander of United Nations armed forces during the Korean War, in a 1954 interview stated that he had wanted to drop "between thirty and fifty atomic bombs" on enemy bases before laying radioactive waste material across the northern edge of North Korea during the Korean War. If he was so willing to drop two bombs on Japan during WWII, why do you think President Truman decided not to use the atomic bomb in the Korean War of 1950?

Truman believed that the weapon shouldn't even be used. In a press conference he said, “It is a terrible weapon, and it should not be used on innocent men, women, and children.”(History.com) And even in his farewell address he told the country that “We are being hurried forward, in our mastery of the atom…toward yet unforeseeable peaks of destructive power [when man could] destroy the very structure of a civilization…such a war is not a possible policy for rational men.”
