33. Your view of history is .... unique
Perhaps this will refresh your memory:

As for Japan, it had no right to negotiate. It still had troops in the field raping and killing. It was still at war. It tried to negotiate a better deal (through back channels because even the Japanese were afraid their own military wouldn't agree) and didn't get anywhere. Why? Because we demanded AND RECEIVED unconditional surrender.
