Finally, as was said, it was (tens of) thousands that died in the bombings, not millions. Millions would have died had we invaded. A covert mission of a small force of American soldiers infiltrating Japan to kill or capture all the leadership and military of the country is so preposterous it can't be taken as a viable alternative.

I admit you have a valid point, but I would rather that than to have dropped a bomb on innocent civilians. What would you have suggested if you were in that time period? Cause i'm at a lost.
