And lets not forget all those innocent civilians dying under brutal occupation in all the countries Japan conquered. Japan killed nearly 10 million civilians in China and SE Asia from 1937 to 1945 - slave labor, deliberate famines, war atrocities, etc. No - it was the Japanese that were barbaric.
It is time to put up. Tell me a way to end the war that takes in to consideration all those other innocent lives, not just the lives of those living in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Tell me how the war was going to be ended without killing even more Japanese civilians. No mushy moralizing, no "I think" - give me a detailed scenario rooted in actual history. Perhaps you can succeed where everyone else has failed.
