No they didn't. The US dropped the Atomic Bomb onto Japan in 1945 and Pearl Harbor happened in 1941.
The use of the bomb was necessary. Japan was getting overconfident in their abilities after the bombing of Pearl Harbor. If Truman did not drop the atomic bomb, many more people would have been killed as a result of the ensuing battle. I do believe that the effects of the atomic bomb on human lives and the fallout mean that the atomic bomb should only ever be used in the most dire of circumstances to save more lives than it ends. Hope this helps, PAW
