The only reason Japan surrendered was because Russia was freed up from its European conflicts and was mobilizing against Japan in the East. If the firebombing of Tokyo wasn't enough to cause a surrender out of the government's pity for its civilian population's plight, why would the nukes do that? And japan was already making overtures for peace before the nukes. It was mass murder and entirely inexcusable.
