>>August 10: The Japanese publicly broadcast an offer of surrender.
>>Which was one day after the first atomic bomb, so at most that is an argument against dropping the 2nd bomb

So why do you feel the second nuke was dropped?


No, the first bomb was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6th, 1945. August 9th was the date of second bomb on Nagasaki:

They dropped the second bomb because there was no surrender after the first one.
