One of the most gross numbers of history is the number of Chinese POWs who were returned to china.
54
Yes, 54 out of millions.
Even Nazi Germany is hard pressed to beat that.
I still maintain that to maximise shock and confusion, the most reasonable way would have been to nuke in concert with the Soviet invasion. That it was done prior to it implies, at least to me, that it was a powerplay aimed at the Soviet Union, and not neccesarly on Japan.
