HEY SKASH! You obviously haven't seen my PM. Can you recommend some reading?
I did read it, I put it aside for later and then forgot. What I do know of end of war politics, and I confess I should know a great deal more about this than I do because it is a collision between my interest in military history and politics, I mostly got from academic articles rather than books. I was an extremely lazy student and going to get books meant putting clothes on and walking to the library so I used articles more than books.

What I'd do if I were you is go on to Amazon and look up the books with the best reviews on Yalta, Potsdam and then the Japanese surrender as well (though these will be covered in books on Yalta and Potsdam as well).

People are craving for there to be a conspiracy, so much so they'd probably find one in a box of Rice Crispies. Muddled minds. BORED, muddles minds.

They are very selective in which questions to answers on here regarding conspiracies or agendas that they support

And they are also deluded.

I remembered one earlier when discussing it with GazC, Racing the Enemy by Tsuyoshi Hasegawa. Haven't read it myself but Yalta: The Price of Peace gets good reviews.

Both are good reads, I would read PoP first.

From this video i see what you mean.

<a class="postlink" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=XrnmbUDeHus#t=9s" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... DeHus#t=9s</a>

start from 9s. ( link above)

( Disregard title of the video, i am merely using the video as it has a good angle with a decent quality, it looks like it might have been edited to show smoke or explosions on some of the floors. )
