https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hirohito "U.S. General Douglas MacArthur insisted that Emperor Hirohito retain the throne. MacArthur saw the Emperor as a symbol of the continuity and cohesion of the Japanese people. " That was a tactical US decision to help reconstruction. It had nothing to do with the Japanese govt wanting it. |
