Last I heard Japan was only months away from dropping a bomb on US.

It was us or them.

I’d love to know where you heard that.

Japan DID NOT have an atomic bomb or anything even close to it in magnitude.

By Spring, 1945 the Japanese Navy had been pretty much destroyed and the Allies controlled the Pacific. They wouldn’t have had any means to fly a bomber to the United States.
