Not a chance.

After Pearl Harbor, the US would not (and never needed to consider) negotiation with Japan.

Churchill made it pretty clear they would never surrender.

The only thing that could have made both sides want to negotiate a peace would have been deadlock at the front as in WW1. But WW2 was a war of mobility so that wasn’t going to happen.

I had a Lemon Peeler. It was pretty cool looking.
