Setting a precedent that continues today, the order for the bombings was given by President Harry Truman. Except in very specific situations, only the President can authorize the use of nuclear weapons. Historians cite the failure of Japan to surrender despite devastating firebombings of Japanese cities and the decimation of their naval forces. Had they admitted defeat, atomic bombs might not have been necessary, and the world's history might have been very different.

George Bush was the first American president to unilaterally dismantle some US nuclear weapons. In 1991, he committed the U. S. to the destruction of some chemical weapons.
The setting is post-apocalyptic Earth where apparently we dropped some nuclear weapons and only disparate groups of people in remote locations survived.
