    Are you kidding? Not to say we didn’t exactly have that luxury in 1945, but we didn’t.

    We had enough uranium and plutonium for the 3 bombs, and that was it. Our bluff was that we would keep doing it. And the nuke hadn’t been displayed before that point either, so what good is a threat when it hasn’t been shown before? We did exactly that and they didn’t care.
