I'm saying they were asked numerous times and refused each time. It was only AFTER they were nuked (not once but twice, they still refused to surrender after the first one) that they finally figured out that maybe they better stop their war effort.
I don't think I can dumb it down any further for you. Sorry.

I understand causality perfectly. Do you understand the difference between a real war and an unexpected terrorist attack?
I support the ending of the war (WWII) as quickly as possible. Period. If anyone in the world doesn't like how that goal was attained then I invite you to consider the notion that maybe, just maybe, Japan shouldn't have started the war to begin with.
No war = no need for bomb usage, yes?
They knew the risk, and took it anyway.
Your comparing 9/11 to WWII is awefully weak, and in fact quite lame. But I've come to expect no less than that kind of thinking from you.
