meh.  keep in mind that the americans had to go find the japanese in island after island and fight every one of them.  Given the past experiences and all of the bonzai attacks etc, I think that it is quite rational to assume that the japanese wouldn't surrender for a while. 

What you said has nothing to do with the bombs.

There were still japanese surrendering 30 years after the war was over, unaware that a treaty had been signed due to island seclusion.....AFTER the bombing.
