I could never claim to summarise even five minutes of WWII with a couple of sentences, but my point is that it's hardly fair to characterise Japan as "ain't heard no bell"

I mean maybe not all of Japan but like.... But there are definitely some Japanese soldiers who were insistent that they really didn't want to hear any idea of surrender
