The Japanese government made fatal decisions regarding the public. First, industry was to be moved into family homes wherever possible to decentralize production.

Again, both Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the governmental and military headquarters of their prefects, so "cut off the head" applies. One atomic bomb went off directly over 8,000 Japanese troops lined up for morning inspection. Single deadliest shot fired in military history.
Oh, and Nagasaki Armory produced the special torpedoes used at Pearl Harbor. Karma's a bitch.
