There are a number of reasons why military intervention in politics may occur. Some of the most common reasons include: To protect national security: In some cases, military intervention may be seen as necessary to protect a country's national security, either from external threats or internal unrest. To restore order: Military intervention may be used to restore order in the event of political instability, civil unrest, or a breakdown in the rule of law. To support democratic transitions: Military intervention may be used to support the transition to democracy in countries that are moving from authoritarian regimes. To protect human rights: In some cases, military intervention may be justified on the grounds of protecting human rights, particularly in cases where the government is committing widespread human rights abuses. To promote economic stability: Military intervention may be used to promote economic stability, particularly in cases where the government is unable to effectively manage the economy or is engaging in corrupt or irresponsible economic policies. It is important to note that military intervention in politics is generally viewed as a last resort and is generally considered to be a highly controversial and risky action. It is generally only undertaken when other efforts to address a crisis have failed and there is a clear and pressing need to address the situation.

Why did admiral Leahy think the use of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki ethically wrong?
Actually, he didn't. The notion that Leahy objected to the atomic bomb on ethical grounds is a distortion of a conversation he had with Truman after being notified of the decision to use the bomb (Leahy was unconvinced that it would work, believing that the Manhattan Project was a huge waste of funding up to the very last). In addition, Leahy did mention some objections on ethical grounds later in his memoirs (1950), but there is no evidence that he voiced such an opinion at the time of the decision to use them. There is no evidence of any serious ethical objection to the decision to use the atomic bomb from anywhere in the U.S. command structure (either military or political). The only pre-use objections came from a very limited number of scientists involved in the Manhattan Project (and, only then, after the Trinity Test); objections on ethical grounds by politicians and military folks began only after the actual use of the weapons (and, the full effects were realized). There were political, military, and practical objections to the decision from a variety of the political/military command, but none of them severe, and none based on ethical grounds. Much of the lack of objection is laid at the feet of incomprehension. The incredible power of the atomic bomb was simply unimaginable to those who did not have first-hand experience with it (either, directly through seeing a detonation, or via viewing of Photography/film of a detonation). Thus, the notion that the atomic bomb was something other than just a "bigger bomb" wasn't understood by anyone in charge. Expecting people to make some sort of ethical objection to something that they didn't really understand is unreasonable, and is the major factor behind the total lack of such ethical concerns.

Why did admiral leahy feel the use of the atomic bomb on japan was unnecessary?
He believed that continued bombing attacks and a naval blockade would finish off all Japenese resistance. He also objected to the atomic bombs use on the grounds that other nations would develop the technology and in some future conflict it would be used against the US. He also had moral objections that our use of such a weapon made the US "common to the barbarians of the Dark Ages".
