The atomic bombs were dropped in August of 1945. By that point, I believe the tide against the Germans was turned, (edit: they had in fact surrendered, so there you go) we were winning in Europe. The Japanese were not going to give up, due to their honor system-- the loss of life of invading Japan would have been catastrophic for both sides. The bombs were dropped in a hope that by demoralizing the Japanese into surrender, the war would end more quickly and fewer peopel would die.
