Can you give us insight, please: When RF plan to surrender?

  I'm not sure what you're asking for. Note that I'm not criticizing the choice to drop the nukes, I'm arguing against the belief (that many people still hold now, with the benefit of hindsight) that it was necessary and saved lifes.

    You said that it was possible to predict when Japan will surrender. Can you do that trick again, please?

      > You said that it was possible to predict when Japan will surrender. Could you maybe point out what exactly in my post makes you belief that? What I said is that a survey by/for the US government itself came to the conclusion that the atomic bombs were not necessary to effect a surrender in 1945, NOR a ground invasion.

        They come to that conclusion after the end of the war, by asking Japan officials. We all are smart after a battle. Can you do this trick NOW?
