Why did imperialist nations begin to release control of their colonies after world war 2?

They could no longer afford to maintain all the colonies and many of the colonies wanted independence. They had already agreed to let India and Singapore have their freedom.There were some colonies they wanted to keep. Israel had to fight for their freedom.Another reason was pressure by the US to let go of their colonies so they could have self-rule and their own economies.Some imperialist nations were tired of being attacked and having to spend money and men to fight wars at their colonial places.
