And there's that whole bit about how the US wouldn't have been invading alone, the USSR recently declared war,
So? Whoever was invading, more people still would have died.
...and many sources and historical works argue that the Soviet entry had far more to do with the Japanese decision to surrender
Real sources or libtard revisionist propoganda with no real historical basis? If you are so confident with your claim, then prove it. And Raptor can examine it since he knows more about WWII than me.

Evidence suggests that the soviet entry into the war against Japan, not the atomic bombings, caused to Japanese to surrender in the end.
