Whew.

Good one.

Some would say 'yes', because it convinced the Japanese to surrender earlier than they would have. Had the Japanese held out and not surrendered until after a land invasion of Japan, hundreds of thousands of people would have died in the ensuing conflicts.

The atomic bombs convinced the Japanese that they could be destroyed without requiring a land invasion.
