Question

In the last six months of the war, what was the U.S. strategy for winning the conflict with Japan?

a.Insert ground forces on the Japanese home islands
b.Negotiate with Japan for a conditional surrender
c.Place all of Japan under a naval blockade until the country surrendered
d.Break the Japanese will with massive bombing raids on Japanese cities

Answer 1

The correct option is D. During the last six months of the war, the United States of America, release atomic bombs on two different cities of Japan within a short space of interval. This move was not expected at all by the Japanese and it served as the final stroke that breaks the elephant's back. It leads to quick surrender by the Japanese.
