2018-10-26 07:09:14 UTC

The bombs are even the reason Japan surrendered

2018-10-26 07:09:17 UTC

Im just wondering if there was any other situation similar to US Japan

2018-10-26 07:09:27 UTC

Like country A defeats B

2018-10-26 07:09:30 UTC

well did anyone else have nukes

2018-10-26 07:09:39 UTC

A helps B rebuild and lets B keep their sovereignity

2018-10-26 07:09:47 UTC

And B does not fuck it up

2018-10-26 07:09:48 UTC

History is fully of country A defeating country B

2018-10-26 07:10:05 UTC

But helping B rebuild without taking over?

2018-10-26 07:10:15 UTC

Like Japan was never acolony or annexed state of the US

2018-10-26 07:10:21 UTC

Rome help Rebuild everyhing . . . (in there image cough cough)

2018-10-26 07:10:50 UTC

Thats subjugation

2018-10-26 07:10:53 UTC

Or annexing

2018-10-26 07:10:55 UTC

There were instances of it in history . but its few and far inbetween

2018-10-26 07:11:02 UTC

im trying to find some

2018-10-26 07:11:07 UTC

you didnt see america forcing the japs to learn english or discard all of their culture

2018-10-26 07:11:15 UTC

@Walsp the USSR is the reason for Japan's surrender

2018-10-26 07:11:19 UTC

Or forcing them to enlist in the US army

2018-10-26 07:11:31 UTC

Like auxillaries in Rome

2018-10-26 07:11:57 UTC

Having beaten Germany russia was turning it's full attention to Japan and Japan couldn't win a 2 front war

2018-10-26 07:12:06 UTC

So they gave into the USA

2018-10-26 07:12:07 UTC

I doubt that to be honest.

2018-10-26 07:12:17 UTC

Hmmmm

2018-10-26 07:12:21 UTC

They were counting on the US to invade them

2018-10-26 07:12:37 UTC

And the USSR lost too many from their war with germany

2018-10-26 07:12:42 UTC

Unless the japanese didnt know that

2018-10-26 07:12:45 UTC

Yes and the bombs helped for sure

2018-10-26 07:12:46 UTC

only recently before trumps election didnt japan get the right to have a army again because of China

2018-10-26 07:12:52 UTC

Still Ill aagree on one thing

2018-10-26 07:12:53 UTC

But it was not the reason we won

2018-10-26 07:13:03 UTC

the us forced them to have a Defence force only in a pact

2018-10-26 07:13:07 UTC

That the japs would rather they surrunder unconditionally to the US rather Russia

2018-10-26 07:13:29 UTC

They.... dont have a standing defensive army?

2018-10-26 07:13:41 UTC

They dont even have nukes

2018-10-26 07:13:52 UTC

Russia is a strange one . they want to be part of europe but because of what the USSR did in the cold war the rest of europe was weary but Nato did break its agreement with russia

2018-10-26 07:14:08 UTC

!rank

2018-10-26 07:14:46 UTC

Pats head

2018-10-26 07:14:50 UTC

rip

2018-10-26 07:14:51 UTC

have more music

2018-10-26 07:15:00 UTC

(volume intensifies)

2018-10-26 07:15:09 UTC

Honestly though theres alot of rumours about the surrender

2018-10-26 07:15:18 UTC

Japan has always been able to have a standing army

2018-10-26 07:15:19 UTC

Like for example, peopel said Japan wanted to surrender before the nukes

2018-10-26 07:15:28 UTC

Hmm some of them probably

2018-10-26 07:15:38 UTC

the emporer was stubborn as fuck japanese Pride and all that

2018-10-26 07:15:41 UTC

But it wasnt unconditional, they would continue their autrocities in china, korea, and malaysia

2018-10-26 07:15:57 UTC

I have ancestors that remember running when their non chinese naighbours would warn them

2018-10-26 07:16:29 UTC

Thats the sad thing about history its litterally our Chronology of how many we kill of ourselves to figure out how to live together

2018-10-26 07:16:29 UTC

The emperor of Japan st the time was actually apart of the piece faction

2018-10-26 07:16:34 UTC

I also seen a river, the river that people say its haunted since the kempetai would throw corpses into it

2018-10-26 07:16:40 UTC

was he ?

2018-10-26 07:16:47 UTC

then i must have it incorrect sir i appologize

2018-10-26 07:17:01 UTC

Problem is, there is also a very large military presence in politics

2018-10-26 07:17:15 UTC

The emperor has always been powerless in Japan

2018-10-26 07:17:17 UTC

War is a political tool best used as a last resort

2018-10-26 07:17:33 UTC

If I recall, the US suspected of a plan by the millitary to usurp the emperor if they decided the emperor was no longer following the path

2018-10-26 07:17:45 UTC

No, but the Emperor is very influential

2018-10-26 07:18:00 UTC

its more of a Symbol

2018-10-26 07:18:01 UTC

The jingoist war leaders wanted to continue and had Germany not fallen and the bombs not dropped they would have for decades more

2018-10-26 07:18:02 UTC

And having the emperor who might give peace, is better than a general who would rather Japan burn

2018-10-26 07:18:18 UTC

Yup your right on that Codes

2018-10-26 07:18:27 UTC

If the US never had a Atomic weapon they would have invaded

2018-10-26 07:18:38 UTC

But wernt they counting on the US to invade with ground forces

2018-10-26 07:18:43 UTC

yeah

2018-10-26 07:18:52 UTC

they expected it

2018-10-26 07:18:54 UTC

they were basically brainwashing their own peoplei nto performing suicide attacks should they do it

2018-10-26 07:19:00 UTC

They were not counting on the USSR invading them too

2018-10-26 07:19:06 UTC

banzaaai !!

2018-10-26 07:19:21 UTC

Im talking running into Amercian soldiers with grenades in hand

2018-10-26 07:19:22 UTC

Strap satchel Charge on chest and run

2018-10-26 07:19:35 UTC

yeah the Grenade attacks

2018-10-26 07:19:44 UTC

aswell as the Suicide before surrender in the bunkers

2018-10-26 07:20:09 UTC

Still, I was sure the USSR was mostly defensive late into the war

2018-10-26 07:20:11 UTC

In a documentary a WW 2 vet said we killed them like animals because they kept attacking us like animals

2018-10-26 07:20:12 UTC

That was just the culture of Japan

2018-10-26 07:20:19 UTC

The toll of the war around the eastern front was massive

2018-10-26 07:20:33 UTC

I mean the Japs were vicious fuckers.

2018-10-26 07:20:48 UTC

yeah

2018-10-26 07:20:48 UTC

Ferocity of an animal, honor of a man.

2018-10-26 07:21:00 UTC

Combine those and you get very loyal troops.

2018-10-26 07:21:08 UTC

i have to respect the japanese fighting spirit

2018-10-26 07:21:22 UTC

Give me a text to Google translate 15 times

2018-10-26 07:21:26 UTC
