The US did not intend to still be fighting Japan now (2002) in 1945. It intended to bring the war to close, bring its boys back home, and resume a normal peaceful life. Whether you approved or not. The fastest way of ending that war was to thoroughly convince the Japanese that if they did not surrender, they faced total annihilation. Once that was done, the Japanese government surrendered.

Let me ask you somethng: Do you believe the average Japese citizen alive today would prefer t be living under the current democratic government or the military dictatorship that existed prior to and during WWII?
