Before I can even get home I can answer a few. First, I don't believe I mentioned the bombing of Tokyo at all.

1) Tojo was ousted in 1944, along with his whole cabinet. At the time of 1945 General Suzuki was in power. Suzuki was known as a moderate. This is NOT opinion, it is recognised fact. His government was succeeded by a Civilian one, again, recognised fact.

Hideki Tojo

Kantaro Suzuki

Two semi-informative links on these two men. It was Suzuki who persuaded the Emperor to surrender and it nearly cost him his life. He completely re-shuffled the Japanese Cabinet bringing in moderates.

I neveer once stated that the Japanese surrender could have been unconditional. It could have been, at the least very favourable. Again, we'll never know. Something I havwe admitted in previous posts & something others haven't. The simple fact that because it never happened we'll never know.

2. Dresden Bombings

I will continue when I get home.
