if you know anything about the imperial Japanese at the time and look at the actions of the Japanese as a whole, the "may not have rejected" nonsense is just that, nonsense. The Japanese were not going to simply surrender. The fought to the death on the battlefield as it was considered disgraceful to surrender and was one of the reasons POWs were treated so poorly. The had no honor in the eyes of the Japanese military. There is also proof that villagers committed suicide rather than surrender their villages as the Allied forces island hopped across the Pacific. The "rejection" garbage is revisionist history and the bombs were a necessity. In the end they saved millions of lives that would have been lost if the allies had been forced to invade the island...

[@davisphillips993]

Okay. Thank you for telling me.

On some of these, the history you have presented lacks important details. Mao's collectivization of farms had already happened before 1958 and was relatively accepted by the people. The problem was, in his Great Leap he set production quotas extraordinarily high, and threatened farm supervisors with severe penalties for not reaching them. So lots of supervisors fudged on their totals, meaning that when the trucks came to take the food for the cities, there was much less left than official numbers indicated. Also, his Red Guards were policing everybody to refrain from any behavior deemed bourgeois, with terrible disruption in the cities as well. And his campaign to use his people to eradicate starlings (ostensibly to preserve grain), caused the pests the starlings eat to multiply and eat far more grain. Mao would not seek outside advice or comment on his plans, so there was no check on his toxic zeal. Re: the 1930s famine in Ukraine, I'm not sure whether that was a "mistake," or just an example of Stalin's boorish methods, which held that millions of deaths were acceptable to achieve an ideological end. In the late 50s, Khrushchev's "Virgin Lands" crusade to grow massive amounts of corn (which he was amazed by when he visited Iowa with Eisenhower) in Siberia was a clearer example of unintended terrible consequences. Unlike Stalin, Khrushchev could eventually recognize a mistake, and the corn fiasco soon cost him his job.

Few things: Why should US apologize to the Japan for the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki?Japan attacked first without provocation. Also Japan never apologized for it's war crimes,further more,they break diplomatic relationship with countries that commemorate victims of those crimes. Terror Famine was not a mistake,it was deliberate...Stalin may be even worst than mustache man(not the worst,that title goes to pol pot) No No Germany and USSR were not allies and never could have been allies. Mustache man was aiming USSR territories and resources for his "living space" plan and German self reliance. Non Aggression pact was aimed to dived eastern Europe and yes,they had trade agreements but that's not ally like UK and France were allies. Fact is,USSR was preparing for war with Germany,just,stalin believed that he has few years to prepare for war and dismissed any rapport that mustache man is about to launch an attack.

Russia invading Ukraine was a mistake, but it was not Russia's mistake it was NATO's. To think Russia would allow Ukraine to join NATO and have a hostile alliance on their border is insane. NATO made the mistake by provoking the invasion.
