So the "Army of Islam" is just a civilian uprising
Not to mention that there were alternative to nuking 2 cities, you know like negotiating different terms of surrender.
Negotiating what? Even after the Nukes there was almost a military coup to stop Japan from surrendering.
The type of surrender Japan was willing to accept would have been akin to accepting a German surrender without deNazification.
The goal wasn't just surrender it was a complete regime change under American supervision.
