World War II in GERMANY ended in '94. That doesn't mean that the war in the Pacific was over.

Besides, the US deserved retribution for the unprovoked attacks upon Pearl Harbor. And we estimated that a full-scale land invasion of Japan would have cost millions of lives on both sides. Besides, they had FAIR WARNING of what the actions would be if they did not surrender, yet they were too stubborn. Even after the FIRST bomb, they were STILL given a chance to surrender, and if they did not, they'd be hit. So what did they do? They thought we were bluffing. Their BIG mistake.
