  1. Then, if you find the "Trophy Skulls"(: the skulls of Japanese soldiers that the US soldiers brought back as souvenirs) that are still wandering in the United States, send them back to their hometown.

  2. So it should do experiment in your own city, not in another country's city, isn't it?

  3. First, the Southwest Islands, including Palau, came under Japanese rule after the Paris Peace Conference after World War I. Japan did not invade Palau. By the way, in what country did you get such a wrong education?

  4. No landing operations or atomic bombs were required for the end of the war. The CIA website has a PDF file with the following name. “Memoranda for the President: Japanese Feelers” This PDF file shows that the Government of Japan was asking the United States to talk the end of the war from the beginning of 1945. And it was recorded that they admitted defeat and argued that retention of the Emperor was the only condition for surrender, which was necessary to prevent Japan from becoming a communist nation. The draft of the Potsdam Declaration was supervised by Joseph Grew, the former ambassador to Japan. The draft included a sentence authorizing the guarantee of the emperor's status. Because Grew was known the above information, knew well why Japan wanted the retention of the Emperor, and knew that Japan would surrender as soon as the Potsdam Declaration allowed the retention of the Emperor. This Grew’s effort is proven by the Truman memoir. It says: "Grew arrived at the end of May and suggested to make a declaration urging Japan to surrender. The declaration provided Japan with a guarantee that the United States would allow the Emperor to remain head of state." "I told him that I had already considered this issue and that (Grew's suggestion) seemed like a sound opinion." However, when Truman annouced the Potsdam Declaration, the sentence that allowed the retention of the Emperor had removed from the declaration. It was because the atomic bomb was completed shortly before the declaration. Therefore, it was clear that the US purpose of dropping the atomic bomb on Japan was not to end the war, and it was as follows. 1. Experiments on how the atomic bomb destroys and kills living cities and people 2. Experiments on contamination by radioactivity and its effects on the human body 3. Demonstration to the Soviet Union In addition, it seems that it is not well known, but in fact, after the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, the US nuclear bomb development agency announced that it had "successfully conducted an atomic bomb drop experiment."

  5.  @PhilipADitko  ? ? ? what do you mean? I am not talking about volunteers. And my comments are based on official US records and historical facts that can be confirmed by other records and are not propaganda. First, read carefully and then reply.

  6. Why is there no mention that 60% of buried bodies lack a skull?

  7. The Pearl Harbor attack was the result of the Roosevelt administration hunting down Japan to do it. That fact is announced at the Pearl Harbor Memorial.

  8. According to Charles Lindbergh's memoirs, most Allied soldiers also killed Japanese soldiers without taking them. However the international law stipulates that if an enemy soldier is caught alive, he must be taken prisoner. What your grandfather did is an obvious war crime.

  9.  @Hans.Dewitt  According to official CIA records, in May 1945 Japan sent a message to the President of the United States that "the only condition for surrender is to maintain the emperor system."

  10. From the beginning of 1945, Japan had been requesting peace talks with the United States. Washington ignored first request, so before the Yalta meeting in February 1945, Japan asked the Soviet Union also to mediate peace talks with the United States under the Soviet-Japanese Neutrality Treaty. In other words, the United States, Britain and the Soviets knew that Japan was raising the white flag, and they also knew that they could end the war in more peaceful way. The atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki was an experiment to find out how the human body is destroyed, damaged, and how the effects of radiation occur.

  11. The atomic bombings were absolutely not necessary to end the war. Below is a more detailed version of the comment already written above to prove this. From beginning of 1945, Japan had been requesting peace talks to the United States through Mr. Dulles of the 0SS (the predecessor agency of the CIA) in Switzerland. The record of repeated contacts calling for peace talks from the Japanese government can be found on the CIA website as a PDF file with the following name: “Memoranda for the President: Japanese Feelers” This PDF file shows that the Government of Japan was asking the United States to talk the end of the war repeatedly. And it was recorded that they admitted defeat and argued that retention of the Emperor was the only condition for surrender, which was necessary to prevent Japan from becoming a communist nation. Communist thought denies and destroys tradition and culture. Just as the Russian Empire was lost by the Russian Revolution, becoming a communist country means the destruction of the state. Even if the war can be ended before the total annihilation of Japan by the Allies, if Japan becomes a communist country due to the loss of the existence of the emperor, it means the destruction of Japan. So the retention of the Emperor was the condition that Japan couldn’t compromise. And that's why Stalin continued to persistently demand the execution of the emperor, and some people in the Roosevelt administration who it turned out that they were communists in the Venona document, had tried to have Truman to execute the emperor many times. The draft of the Potsdam Declaration was supervised by Joseph Grew, the former ambassador to Japan. The draft contained one sentence authorizing the guarantee of the emperor's status along with some conditions of surrender, such as disarming the Japanese army and not colonizing Japan. Because Grew had heard of the above report, knew well why Japan wanted the retention of the Emperor, and knew that Japan would surrender as soon as the Potsdam Declaration allowed the retention of the Emperor. This Grew’s action is proven by the Truman memoir. It says: "Grew arrived at the end of May and suggested to make a declaration urging Japan to surrender. The declaration provided Japan with a guarantee that the United States would allow the Emperor to remain head of state." "I told him that I had already considered this issue and that (Grew's suggestion) seemed like a sound opinion." However, when the Potsdam Declaration was read out, the sentence guaranteeing the emperor's retention was deleted. Because the United States wanted to conduct a nuclear bomb test that had just been completed on July 16 against the "Japanese". Since Washington had not responded, Japan had asked also the Soviet Union to mediate negotiations to end the war based on the Soviet-Japanese Neutrality Pact. In other words, Japan raised a white flag to the United States and the Soviet Union, but they did not reply at all until the Potsdam Declaration. Without replying, the U.S. military carried out air raids on 430 cities in Japan. LeMay's airstrike method was very ruthless and merciless. That method burned down the area after burning all the edges of the planned airstrike area first so that no one could escape from the area. In the Tokyo air raid on March 10, 1945, more than 100,000 Japanese civilians were burned to death in 2 hours. As LeMay said later, the U.S. Air Force had tried to kill as many Japanese as possible. It’s mean the United States was convinced of victory, and it was also convinced that it would not be charged with war crimes later. So these indiscriminate genocides were carried out without hesitation. And it is clear that the purpose of the United States was to make governance easier after the end of the war. Westerners often interpret that Japan did not have the will to surrender to the Allies because it was preparing for the decisive battle on the mainland. However, when the enemy ignores your request for End-War Talks and continues to attack, it is quite natural to prepare for the next possible attack such as "landing operation on the mainland", isn't it? Kantaro Suzuki was the Prime Minister, who was clearly appointed by the Emperor with the intention of ending the war. For the Japanese government, the Potsdam Declaration was a response from the United States that had finally arrived after several months of negotiations to end the war. So Prime Minister Suzuki tried to proceed with the acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration. But what hindered it was that there was no wording to guarantee the Emperor's position. Suzuki inquired about this, but the United States did not give a clear answer. Even after the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, there were pro-USSR military leaders who insisted that they should wait for the mediation of the Soviet Union. Also, the fact that the number of victims reported from Hiroshima immediately after the atomic bombing was about 80,000, which was less than the 115,000 victims of the Tokyo air raid on March 10 also affected the meeting. So, the Japanese government could not accept the Potsdam Declaration immediately because some of leaders refused to accept the Potsdam Declaration. However, on August 9, the Soviet started invasion. This invasion cut off the hopes of some leaders who were pro-Soviets, so Japan accepted the Potsdam Declaration. In short, In order to end the war, there was no need for atomic bombs or landing operations. The United States also knew that the atomic bombing was unnecessary. But The United States did experiment of atomic bombings because it wanted to do experiments against Japanese people and cities alive. What led to the acceptance of Japan's Potsdam Declaration to end the war was not the 2 atomic bombings, but the Soviet invasion.
