How would America be like today if Japan won the battle of Iwo Jima during WWII? -

I m doing a project and am very confused. Some people say that nothing would nt of happened at all and some say that we would have been taken over by Japan. Although I beleive we would have been taken over by Japan, what do you think America would be like if you agree?

By Iwo Jima the outcome of the war was a fait accompli...a done deal. the only questions were how long and how hard would it be to beat Japan into total submission. If the US had failed to take Iwo Jima, the island would have been by passed and starved out and the war would have been longer and bloodier affair. But with it s industry safely out of reach and the right arm that had been pummeling the Nazis in Europe soon to be freed, the American victory was never in doubt.

america wouldnt be like this today. but i know in the public opinion. it would never happen. because people would say that america stands for freedom. another history of being free and getting our independence from japan, another history in the making. some wouldnt agree with what you say. but if japan did won today. this country wouldnt be like this today. i dont think id exist today cause my father from USAF was stationed in japan. i think america would have change the country s name. things would be different. government would be different as for religion also. i dont think you would really have alot of racial issue BETWEEN blacks and whites. because you would have also have japs. if they did win. would japan be called the INTERNATIONAL POLICE, who knows. united states dont believe in losing so i believe they will always find another way to get independency. thats how i feel like being an american. i dont think its about being patriotic anymore. its just my opinion. i wish it was really WE THE PEOPLE. but not anymore. we just rely on ONE GUY to run our country. but not by a WHOLE COUNTRY. you got me wonder about it now. we would probably be slaves today. we would never know. just a thought. good luck with it. hope you find a better answer.

America would be the same. they would have either just tried again with a different tactic that would surly work, or they would just end up using the atomic bomb on iwo jima first, then using it on mainland japan. America had more people, and could keep bringing them in. once they have the island of iwo jima cut off, the Japanese can not bring any food, supplies or reinforcements to the people on iwo jima, so eventually, if the Americans waited long enough all the japs on iwo jima would have starved to death
