| Captain Hyperbole. Alperovitz is controversial , sure, but he's not a kook. He's a professor of history at the University of Maryland, not some crazy, pseudo-academic institution. His work is peer reviewd. Revisionist history isn't a bad thing when new evidence dispels long-held inaccuracies. And I... |

| None of the alleged talk of the Japanese being willing to surrender apparently got through to the planners of Operation Downfall because they were expecting Allied dead in a direct invasion of the home islands to range from 250,000 to over 800,000 servicemen killed. And they had every reason to bel... |
