Harry Truman
The American President, Harry Truman, made the decision to drop atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
That was President Truman's call.
It is the other way around, the use of the atomic bomb played a role in the weapons race.
Oppenheimer was the scientist/manager who directed the team that built the tool and made it work. The final decision on what to do with it and when was made by the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces ... President Truman.
ultimately it was Truman's.
