What drove America to commit this atrocity was trying to one up Stalin. The Russians defeated the Germans and they were coming for the Japanese next. America couldn’t have Russia win the war on two fronts, it would give the commies too much moral authority, so they used the atom bomb to show the soviets their military capabilities whilst bringing the war to a close on Americas terms.
