So what were those indications? Was it the sucide bombers? The countless civilian and military Japanese lives lost at Okinawa because thier leader told them to fight to the death? Was it the increased fortifications, the standing orders to fight even if they lose contact with HQ or the generals that were planning a take over if thier leader surrendered to the Allies and then order the people to fight to the death? Even Japanese historians admit to this. Hell even higher echleon staff and officers who are alive today say the same fucking thing.
Do me a favor and stfu.
