Hindsight is a wonderful thing but the allies at war with japan saw no sign of surrender.... Didnt even surrender after hiroshima.... The second bomb ended the war which could have gone on for decades, poss requiring a land invasion of japan. Potentially the two atom bombs saved lives. Strange and weird thing to think i know....
