The dropping of the two bombs on Japan and the killing of several hundred thousand innocent civilians was an American advertising effort to frighten the Russians who were seen to be a future threat. Japan at the time was ready to surrender. The messages to Russias were:

  • We have atomic bombs
  • We have lots of atomic bombs. Not Just one.
  • We don't care who we kill in using them! Watch out! Don't cross us!
