You mean a fanatical japanese enemy, one that threw themselves off the cliffs rather than surrender, was going to suddenly change, and just give up because Truman called them and said "hey look guys, the last few years was a real gas, but everyone's a little tired of it all, and btw we have this new bomb, and it's really, really a pistol".
