understand me, I’m not telling you “oooh the poor Japanese got nuked this makes all of their crimes okay”, I am telling you that the U.S. nuking Japan brought no good and you yourself have made this point yourself, the forgiving imperial Japan thing wouldn’t be as popular if the U.S. didn’t nuke it, sure the Clean Wehrmacht exist, but there was still a theater of Nazis getting punished, meanwhile the U.S. granted Unit 731 immunity and Hiro Hito died in 1989.
No, look at the passage I cited from the Emperor’s surrender address. Tell me exactly what it says.

There was the theatre of the Tokyo War Crimes trials too. Are you seriously this ignorant about the topic and trying to lecture me? The German denazification process was scarcely better than the Japanese process. Von Braun et al was their Unit 731. A bunch of high ranking Nazis got to die of old age too. America can eat shit for letting both the Nazis and the Imperial Japanese off the hook with a slap but Germany didn’t get nuked and it was rehabilitated just like Japan. It’s almost as if the US was going to rehabilitate both fascist powers anyway, nukes or not.
Nothing you’ve said justifies the killings of Japanese grandmothers and schoolchildren, which the US was happy to do, to scare the USSR. These were civilian, not military targets.
