The Japanese had been trying to surrender since January, the only condition they were asking was that the Emperor be spared. The lie on that was that the Russians wouldn't send the offers on because they wanted to get in on vivisecting Japan. This was proven wrong only recently. The Russians sent the offers and Truman ignored them. Truman wanted to drop the bomb so as to show the Russians we had it and what it could do.

Even after the Bomb many Generals wanted to fight on, only the entry of Russia ended even their opposition.

After the surrender the Emperor volunteered to be executed if it would spare other Japanese. MacArthur let him go, though we had a version of Nuremberg there too

wow talk about rewritting history
everything you posted was 100% false.
if you actaully studied you would know that the japanese miltary actaully tried to everthrow the emperor to prevent the surrender after the atomic bombs. you would have also known that the japanese wher training the old, the women and children to attack the americans with farm tools so when they where killed and the americans where out of ammo the japanese military would attack and take the weapons. you would also have known that a few years ago they discovered bases (that where dug into mountians) filled with jet powered flying bombs to use against american warships during the invasion.
the envoy you are talking about was only trying to prevent russia from attacking and was not authorized to do anything else.
