That is the most idiot thing I’ve heard in a while. Just don’t invade! Wow, they really needed you around in 1945. I guess the hell with the thousands of US POWs in Japan. Just abandon them to save enemy lives.
You have the viewpoint of someone who never spend a day in uniform.
Tell us how you explain to families of POWs that you have abandoned their son to his fate to protect Japanese lives.
Your wrong.
How many American POWs would have been left in Japan if: (1) the U.S. invaded Japan, or (2) the U.S. had to drop atomic bombs on Japan indefinitely to get them to surrender?

It doesn’t take a genius to look at the U.S. military leadership over the last 30+ years and see that this is a point in my favor.
War is hell…these weapons ended the war and saved countless deaths and misery on both sides…of course we should be concerned about saving our blood primarily of course…good job USA…
