The Japanese would never have given up. It took something so terrible as the A-bomb to get them to stop. If you want to use a body count-not always the answer to the brutality of war-but there would have been more deaths if we constantly used conventional bombs to bring them to surrender.
Additionally, how many US Marines/soldiers etc.would have died attempting to make a land invasion.
There is always a list of sins, on all sides, during warfare. However, a review of what Japan did needs to be mentioned: Their invasion of China was truly a tragedy. The attack on Pearl Harbor was a sneak attack. If they had the atom bomb in '41 there is no doubt they would have dropped December 7th.
Sorry to all that suffered but the Japanese government was to blame.

TCM has a short interview that Ernest Borgnine did on Robert Ryan when they show a clip of Ryan working with Spencer Tracy in Bad Day at Black Rock (1955) where the latter stares down looking in to his drinking cup and poor Mr. Ryan, did all he could to stay in the scene. Your eyes immediately were drawn to Spencer.
I counted 3 times when Mr Tracy Used Food/drink as an acting technique to pull the attention on to himself. It worked, so why didn't his co-stars in other projects spend time staring at their plates?
That is a question for the ages. Could a star on the level of Katharine Hepburn's status should have just pulled the food away from him.

Here is my idea for a Dr. No Sequel. (Let me first say I enjoy this movie and it brings me back to my youth.)
Okay, here we go. Honey Ryder told James Bond and. Quarrel that she knew where they could hide.
It turned out she led them to a radioactive swamp. Thus implying that she had been there before and of course, unlike this visit, she didn't get a washing down on that conveyor belt back at Dr. No's headquarters.
This stuff practically writes itself.
"Honey," said Bond, "where have you been all these years?" "Been, Been!" a frustrated. Ryder, replied, "In and out of the hospital for radiation treatment." Then the bald former beauty added, "you should get checked too."
