As I said in that note, no one really knows what would have happened in the fullness of time had a different decision been made This is true. It is possible that the Japanese would have surrendered. It it possible that we would have invaded and conquered Japan with the loss of hundreds of thousands of lives on both sides. It is possible that we would have invaded and been beaten back, defeated, with the loss of most of our milirary, that the kamakazi pilots would have sunk the bulk of our fleet including all our aircraft carriers, and that we would have surrendered and the US and Canada would even now be under Japanese occupation. It is possible that the biological and chemical weapons the Japanese were developing would have been completed and used on our cities with the loss of millions of American lives. You're right. Many things might have happened. We don't which ones would have. Fortunately, we don't have to worry. We dropped two bombs, they surrendered, and the war was over. And our schools teach in English, not Japanese.
