The attack on Pearl Harbour brought the USA into WWII. The Japanses fought tenaciously, even suicidally, to protect their country from American invasion, with no sign that they would ever surrender. America had the atom bomb and felt that many American lives would be saved by using it to persuade the Japanese people that they would, in the end, be conquered and thus should surrender before they were all killed.
