Uncovering the Shock Revelation That Ended WWII

[@huntclanhunt9697]

True

[@freemagicfun]

You see how determined many of them were to fight to the death - even after 2 nukes were dropped. The emperor would never have surrendered without the nukes being dropped. As unfortunate as the nukes were, they saved millions of lives. Japanese and Allies.

[@MisterJackTheAttack]

That's western propaganda talking. Japan tried to surrender a couple of times, but it was the United States that was unwilling to end the war. The problem was that Japan wanted to surrender conditionally (wanted to keep the Emperor, do their own war crime trials, etc), and the US pledged to get unconditional surrender. Dropping the bombs was unnecessary to end the war, and arguably unnecessary to end the war to satisfy the US.

[@retiredprincipal410]

Not true. The use of atomic bombs on Japan crippled any chance of a successful coup d’état in order to continue the war to the last last bullet and last man. Any conditional surrender agreement negotiated by the Emperor would have easily been prevented by the hardliners who came ever so close to a successful overthrown of the Emperor despite the use of atomic bombs.

[@markbrooks8623]

The Emperor's use of the Young Officers Movement to control both senior military officials and politicians very nearly backfired on him. Junior officer insubordination not only strangled Japan's democracy between the wars, it got them into WWII in the first place, and very nearly resulted in the destruction of Japan and the Japanese people as a whole.

The emporer insisted on seeing the capital after a firestorm raid and what Soviet troops were doing to German civilians and would be repeated in Hokkaido and possibly in some of Tokyo were I think the main contributors to the Emporer's surrender besides Nagasaki showing there was more then one.

[@Erin-Thor]

As Japan had trained, planned and intended to use every man, woman AND child in defense of their homeland… as horrid as the bomb was, it saved lives. The US military estimated Japanese casualties in the millions, perhaps as high as 3-5 million dead, with an estimated 500k Americans dead. I know many Japanese (and other nations) hate America because we used an atomic bomb, but sadly, it may have been the most humane option.

He told of realizing that one group of soldiers who had rushed them in surrendering had no loaded weapons or grenades among them afterwards, their deaths were completely unnecessary. He was in tears remembering these events and I can’t even imagine the horror of that.

It wasn't the Soviet invasion of Manchuria per se that factored into their equation. It was that they lost the Soviet Union as a backstop. For the entire war, Japan knew that the Soviet Union had their back. While American and British Empire forces died in jungles and beaches to the south and east, the Soviet Union blocked any attacks from the North and West. So it was the "US Atomic bombs, and the loss the war-long Soviet Backstop that caused the Japanese surrender."

[@July41776DedicatedtoTheProposi]

Not exactly. Japan realized that the Soviet Union in the war, Japan would be sliced in half with the Northern half going to the Soviet Union. They surrendered immediately to avoid partition as would happen in Korea.

[@lawrenceallen8096]

@@July41776DedicatedtoTheProposi Partition of what? In the 1~2 years it would take the Soviets to develop the necessary amphibious and air capabilities to actually carry out such an invasion of the Japanese mainland, what would be left of Japan to occupy? During those 1~2 years, Japan would continue to suffer not only the American production-line daily 350-plane firebombing raids on its cities, but the addition of a 1-plane = 1-bomb = 1-city nuclear annihilation. I highly doubt that the Japanese planners were worried about the imbrues the starved and irradiated surviving 1/10th of the Japanese population would have to suffer under Soviet occupation, let alone partition. Japan surrendered because the USA were set to make the Japanese people and culture extinct. It was truly an existential threat to Japan (a much over used word today). And the Emperor had no choice: surrender to the Americans & their British allies, or be the emperor who made Japan go extinct.
