So why did the US nuke Japan?
there was no military reason, so why did they do it?
As part of the surrender terms, Japan had to agree with the US "official" narrative, that the Japs bombed Pearl harbor.
It goes like this….
"you have to agree that you started the war, by bombing Pearl Harbor"
"But we didn't bomb pearl harbor, and were not gonna say that we did"
Boom
"what the fuck did you do that for, we didn't bomb pearl harbor, and we will not say that we did!"
Boom
"Ok, ok, we bombed Pearl harbor"
