If your question refers to the emotional character of Japan, the answer will eternally be "Yes." The events of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are so burned in the Japanese psyche and modern identity that time will not erase them. (This is similar to the effect of the Holocaust on the Jewish psyche or 9-11 on the American psyche.)
If you are referring to physical effects, then the answer is different. The land itself has more or less returned to pre-bombing conditions (i.e. grass grows, the river water is as potable as it was, etc.) There are certain exceptions such as burned shadows and the like, but overall the places at the epicenter of the bombings show few lasting marks of the event. (This is from an environmental perspective. The bomb did eviscerate entire neighborhoods which no longer exist.)
If you are referring to human maladies, the numbers of those who claim illnesses caused by the blast are tapering off, but only because most of those who were severely effected have already passed. There are still, however, a higher incidence of radiation-related diseases in the Hiroshima and Nagasaki areas.

What is after taste as an American idom?
Literally, an after-taste refers to a lingering flavor that is still on your tongue even after you've swallowed or spit out something. Figuratively, an after-taste describes the lingering effects of an encounter or incident. For example, one might say, "our last boss was so untrustworthy that my co-workers and I are still experiencing an after-taste." An after-taste usually refers to something negative.
Are babies still deformed in hiroshima?
There is no evidence to suggest that babies born in Hiroshima today are deformed as a direct result of the atomic bombing in 1945. The long-term effects of radiation exposure have been extensively studied, and while there were increased rates of birth defects in the immediate aftermath of the bombing, those rates have decreased over time. Modern medical advancements and precautions have also helped to minimize the risk of birth defects.
Why did the bombing of hiroshima and nagasaki start?
The atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was done to bring the war to a speedy conclusion, because the USSR had just declared war on Japan 3 weeks earlier, and it was feared that the USSR would take over Japan as it had taken over eastern Europe, if they were allowed to get too heavily involved. It should be noted that there is still one small island of the Japanese chain that is occupied by Russia, even in 2009, long ofter the end of both WW II and the Cold War. This remains a bone of contention between Japan and Russia.

Does the United States still pay for the attack on Japan?
This question makes an incorrect underlying assumption, namely that the United States began paying any sort of compensation to Japan for the atomic bombing. The United States at no time made any such payment and as a result, it cannot still be paying them.
