Did the US dropped the atomic bomb to intimidate other countries?

i believe the US did drop the second atomic bomb during WW2 to intimidate the Soviet Union. Before the first atomic bomb was even dropped on Hiroshima the Japanese armies were failing and they wished to surrender. Toward the end of WW2 they didn't have much of a navy or an airforce. their cities were being bombed and destroyed by regular high explosives and raids. Also, Japan couldn't get the supplies it needed anymore our own B-29's had destroyed most of the Japanese industries nad, with the laying of mines, prevented the arrival of incoming cargoes. With all this going on it was impossible for Japan to continue large scale war successfully. Japan had even tried to surrender before Hiroshima was bombed but the Allied powers would only consider Japan surrendered if Japan would agree to complete surrender. Japan was unwilling to surrender under those condtions and who would blame them. i would surrender knowing i had no say at all whatsoever in the peace negotiations. so if Japan was already on the brink of defear, and they wanted to surrender anyhow, then it leads me to believe that the atomic bombs, but mostly the second one, where dropped to intimidate the Soviet Union. U.S. leader thought that showing the Soviet Union that America wasn't afraid to use its atomic bombs would help put the communists Soviet Union back in line and make it more managebale.

What is unconditional Surrender?

Unconditional surrender is absolute trust. It starts with acceptance of whatever happens in our life. That is the first surrender, surrender to the law of Karma, whatever unfolds is the reaction of our own past actions. We surrender to that without any question, trusting the law. Then comes surrender to what will be, when we hand over our life, our future, unconditionally. That is Divine unconditional surrender. We live without fear, or worry like a feather that surrenders to the air, like a leaf tossed on a river. So we must surrender.
