But wasn’t the other option to engage in a prolonged combat operation that would lead to the deaths of many American soldiers, the perpetual bombing of Japanese infrastructure, and horrific pain for many Japanese citizens?

At least, that’s how my American history stories sold it to me when I was young.

There was another option they never tell you about.

They could have dropped the bombs insight of the cities to show the power we had.

If they still didn’t surrender, I don’t know, drop it on military bases, not civilian cities.
