Well new files released from Japan show that they were willing to surrender only after the USSR invaded japan in 1945, and that the Nuclear bombings didn't even reach the Japanese command until a few more days. Most historians believe that they bomb Hiroshima to show to the USSR that the US possessed a super weapon rather than to finish japan
