Do you realize after we dropped both a-bombs, that Japan’s government still didn’t want to surrender? It was the Emperor who finally made the unprecedented move to tell the militarists that he wanted Japan to surrender.

It’s a damn shame the WW2 generation is largely dead now and their ungrateful grandchildren and great-grandchildren will never be able to hear about the absolute brutality with which the Japs fought.

Hell, look up the Rape of Nanking or the Butan Death March. This revisionist history from the political right is truly stunning to me.
