I agree with Dowly on this one. Most of the people who kept their mouth shut would react if USA had bombed Europe. And this could keep up even till today.
Many people on the occupied countries supported Germany so in an event that a nuke was dropped, those too would fight.
On the other hand, the Chinesse and other enemies of Japan, didnt had the chance to support Japan because many of them were slaughtered or captured.
And besides that, Hitler had nukes too, dont forget that.
Trivial: Actually the first bombing of London was an accident. The Luftwaffe pilot took it for military area thus bombed it.
