What killed more people in Japan: regular bombings or the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki?
The regular bombings of Tokyo killed just as many people as the atomic bombs. The use of the atomic bombs were to motivate the Japanese populous to demand the Emperor and the Military stop the war. The Japanese did realize the US had weapon superiority and could wipe out Japan. The atom bomb dropping took less people to deliver the bomb and no loss of life to deliver the bomb. The conventional bombings took many more planes and airmen with some loss of planes and lives.
