worker201:
Your hypothetical scenario is just a little bit too "you must decide right fucking now" to be educational.  By the time I finished pissing my pants, it would be too late.  No choices made under that kind of pressure can be logical.  They are either instinctual or irrational.

Fine, let's just not be hypothetical.  I'm somewhat certain that the Japanese had no intention of fighting to the last man.  I'm also extremely certain that the Japanese didn't have the economic resources to continue fighting to the last man (Japanese manufacturing was already stunted, and would have ground to a halt after a couple weeks of bombing raids from Okinawa - while the US was churning out 40 planes a day, and was ready to increase production).  And they were negotiating surrender, I'll post quotes and sources later this week.  If these 3 points are true, then the 10,000 < 100,000,000 doesn't hold water.  You see what I'm saying?

(of course I'm no historian, and neither are you)

(dammit, I wish heatedbates was open, I hate doing this here)

I agree, we should hold this for when Kev decides which way to go with it...
