He claimed that the Empire of Japan was not completely defeated by the United States of American in the war and the Empire of Japan's military had succeeded in developing an atomic bomb, which was against a traditional view on WWII or the Pacific War.
Tanaka studied many pieces of papers of the Office of Strategic Services established in WWII and later developed as CIA.
Tanaka found that it was strange that the U. S. army had not attacked the Imperial Palace in Tokyo during the Pacific War and that there were no descriptions about treatment of the Imperial Family of the Empire of Japan in the Potsdam Declaration or the Proclamation Defining Terms for Japanese Surrender calling for the surrender of all Japanese armed forces during World War II.
So, Tanaka thought that there must be a special secret agreement between the Empire of Japan and the U. S. of America. In Tanaka's judgment the two nations had always decided how to treat the Emperor of Japan after the defeat of Japan. So, the Emperor of Japan knew that he would be pardoned when the Empire surrendered to the U. S. So, in August 1945 he decided that the government of the Imperial Japan should surrender to the U. S. of America after the atomic bomb attacks in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
But, Tanaka also found that the Empire of Japan started development of atomic bombs in 1941.

John 10
7 Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. 8 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. 9 I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved.[a] They will come in and go out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
