The thing that's forgotten is that the Red Army had entered the war on Japan, something Stalin had promised once Germany had been dealt with. They managed to advance something like 100 miles in the first day - and that's what panicked the Japanese generals and led to their surrender. They were already losing against the US; they had no chance fighting Russia too.

Tokyo had been destroyed by fire bombs, and 100,000 people killed in one night a few months before Hiroshima. So the idea that it was the nuclear bomb that ended the war doesn't quite add up. It doesn't really matter whether your enemy has one big bomb, or lots of little bombs, the result is the same. And actually, one big bomb might be preferable as you only have to shoot down one plane to stop the attack.

Truman's Reflections on the Atomic Bombings | The Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki | Historical Documents | atomicarchive.com

Dropping the bombs ended the war, saved lives, and gave the free nations a chance to face the facts. When it looked as if Japan would quit, Russia hurried into the fray less than a week before the surrender, so as to be in at the settlement.

By bombing 2 cities they had proved they could build 2 big bombs in months. Even if shot down they would still turn a huge area into a wasteland.

MAD has kept peace amongst the major nations for nearly a century. Despite what credit NATO & the EU may claim.

Thought they dropped 2 bombs as they wanted to compare the bang per bucks between a uranium gun-type atomic bomb (Little Boy Hiroshima) versus a plutonium implosion-type bomb (Fat Man Nagasaki)

& it is the Nagasaki bombing that is the most controversial as they had already tested one at the Trinity site
