We droped the nuke because we would not win on an invasion of Japan. Unfortunately the only way to get Japan to surrender was to do what we did. It was estimated that on the first day of an invasion we would loose over 300,000 men not counting the wounded. It was the best way to get the job done while preserving life at a low cost.
