Perhaps even more to the point, if Japan had such a weapon would they have hesitated to use it in August of 1945?

I think not.

I believe it was Saburo Sakai, Japans leading air ace who said he fully understood Americas decision to use the bomb. He said had he or any other Japanese soldier had been ordered to do so they would have done the same without question.. Battles and wars are won as Confederate General Jubal Early put it ''By he who gets there firstist with the mostist''. We got there first and thank God we did.
