It was one of the major battles of WW2 and the taking of the island air fields were to help in the invasion of Japan. Japan was always on line to be invaded and it was a matter of how and when.

∙ 8y agoThe answer you are looking for is JAPAN, but the question actually asserts something incorrect. The United States chose not to invade Japan because of the immense number of casualties that would have been lost in a direct invasion versus by dropping the nuclear weapons. While Okinawa provided a sobering idea of just how many Americans would die if Japan were invaded, it did not dissuade the invasion itself.
