The US Military & the US President Truman thought it was necessary.

It is an opinion type question. I have studied this more many years, and I have decided it was necessary to drop the A-Bombs on these two Japanese cities.

It finally forced the Japanese Emperor to take an immediate and public position for ending the war as soon as possible. His intervention (because the Japanese Army ran the government) was necessary. The Japanese Army always claimed that they had the support of the Emperor, whether it was true or not. The Emperor was not in favor of fighting to the last drop of blood (civilian & military), as some in the Japanese Army proposed. The Emperor's public radio broadcast forced the Army to acknowledge & agree to the Emperor's decision.
