I think it's the accumulation of a number of factors... Allied offensives on the Polish, Iranian, Manchurian and Korean fronts, lack of progress in the Balkans, declining economic/industrial performance, running low on recruits, unrest in the USSR...

I love the smell of napalm in the morning. You know, one time we had a hill bombed, for 12 hours. When it was all over, I walked up. We didn't find one of 'em, not one stinkin' body. The smell, you know that gasoline smell, the whole hill. Smelled like... victory. Someday this war's gonna end...
