I was waiting for you to quote the book, directly. Do you have the book so you can quote it? Is this all you got google searches?Ha! Yeah, okay! I notice you simply ignored the quote from Hasegawa's article. Why is that? Because he says the very opposite of what you claim he believes?
The article presents the same case made in the book regarding the role that the Soviet invasion and the nukes played in Japan's surrender, only in a condensed form.
The pattern with you is this: You make some invalid claim. I refute the claim. You ignore the refutation and pretend you've won the argument.
Yes, the book says, that because the soviet union would not negotiate for peace, the Japanese accepted the potsdam declaration. We all know that history, bombs dropped, soviets refuse to accept an offer of peace from Japan, Japan turns to USA and surrenders to the USA.
If we had not accepted the offer for surrender, the Soviet Union would of tried to conquer Japan.
That is what the book states. Are you going to quote from your copy or do you not own the book?
