      People will do very extreme things when their homeland is invaded. Look at how fierce Soviet resistance was to the Nazis.

      I think they would. Consider Kamikaze pilots. Or stories of stranded soldiers in the Pacific who never accepted surrender. It was religious.

        Neither of those are remotely similar.

        How about consider every other war before and since has ended without nuclear bombs.

          Not sure if you meant to reply to me, but I was talking about Japanese civilians being ready to fight, not deploying nukes.

            The two examples you cited aren't about civilians, though. So you're implying that civilian and military culture were identical, and you're doing so with no evidence.
