To this day, Operation Hudson Harbor is a topic of debate and controversy, with historians questioning if the United States was justified in carrying out the bombings (which were done with the permission of South Korea), or if the United States should have settled for an armistice. Proponents of Hudson Harbor state that an armistice would create an increasingly-unstable situation on the Korean Peninsula that could escalate into World War III at any time, while opponents stated that the operation was unethical and created an ecological disaster that only ended in 2012. As for international opinion, nuclear weaponry was still in its infancy, and to the United States' credit, the lowest-possible yield on the Mark 4 bomb was used against North Korean positions, and only airbursts were used on the Korean Peninsula, both factors limiting the damage and ensuring radioactive fallout wouldn't hinder Korea's postwar recovery. North Chinese and American authorities also worked together to keep fallout from the Yalu groundbursts from drifting into Korea. In addition, no future wars saw nuclear weapons used, despite several close calls.
