The rationale for the use of the atomic bomb during World War II was to force the surrender of Japan and bring a swift end to the war, potentially saving millions of lives that would have been lost in a prolonged conflict. The bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were intended to demonstrate the devastating power of the new weapon in hopes of avoiding a costly invasion of Japan.
