Harry S. Truman - Threatening Japan With Further Atomic Attacks

 "The world will note that the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, a military base.  We run the race of discovery against the Germans.  We have used it in order to shorten the agony of war; in order to save the lives of thousands and thousands of young Americans.  We shall continue to use it until we completely destroy Japan’s power to make war."
