The US was tired of war in August 1945 while at the same time gearing up for the invasion of Japan. In Japan, surrender wasn’t viewed like it was in Europe. Your platoon is surrounded and its hopeless? A European and American platoon would surrender. Japanese units would fight to the last man. It would have looked a lot like Stalingrad and the Eastern Front. All morality left the building years earlier.
Our country would have been torn apart by revolution if it was found out that we had the war winning card (the bomb), and didn’t play it while losing hundreds of thousands of men. What answer would Truman have to say to the millions that lost loved ones? A Japanese life was more valuable than your son?
