Following the events of 6 and 9 August 1945, the Japanese release of POW's and detained American citizens gained significant momentum.

To the best of my knowledge, no American citizens have been illegally detained in Japan since.

#3 ^ Sometimes you need to explain things in a way people can understand. Sometimes you need to explain it twice.

#5 Curious thing regarding disposition of prisoners. I should also include assassination attempts of rivals. After WW11 China had very few prisoners to release. Putin has not attempted assignation of Z but Z very capable of such efforts towards Putin and his associates. USA has assassinated how many foreign leaders of one sort of another. You assassinate Putin and the replacement will be much more aggressive in this world. The sanctions failed to crush Russia and depose Putin. Elites totally misunderstood how ineffective their efforts were. So in frustration desperate efforts now will be entertained.

#7 Putin has not attempted assignation of Z

We had reports here that an assassination team was sent out at the beginning of the war, but they couldn’t find him.
