What myth? Japan would not surrender unconditionally. They attacked us to start the war. Unconditional surrender was a reasonable requirement to stop fighting them. Invasion would have been costly to our soldiers and their civilians. If we could end the war at the cost of Japanese civilians and not at further expense of our soldiers, then so be it.
The bombs brought about that unconditional surrender. Even those claiming "myth" admit that fact. Demonstrating our resolve to win wars has probably saved American lives. An exhibited lack of resolve has likely cost many. So I have zero problem with dropping those bombs on Japan.
We should be slow to go to war, but once we do, we should kill people and break things until absolute unquestionable victory is obtained.

Amen.
If I was in office no one and I mean no one, would dare attack America.
It would take only one engagement and they would all be like.... Retreat! That dudes crazy.
