Those innocent murderers

Hello Eiji

I have told an old friend of mine what you are doing
with Straight Talk and she thought it was very brave
and how great work you do!!
Not many people stick their neck out!!
This is an article I received from her.

People imagine that the Allies were too morally
upright to pardon major torturers and mass
murderers, but consider the case of Japan.
A small number of Japanese, Like General Tojo,
were hanged.
But the Japanese Army and secret police in WWII
committed atrocities rivaling or even surpassing
those of the Germans.
Hundreds of thousands of Chinese civilians were
raped, tortured, and murdered in cities like Nanking.
Prisoners of war were routinely overworked, starved,
beaten, denied medical care, or murdered outright,
and few of the perpetrators were ever punished.
Unit 731 of the Japanese Army tested and used
chemical and biological weapons on Chinese civilians.
Headed by an Army doctor, General Shiro Ishii,
the unit infected hundreds of civilians, including
children, infants, and pregnant women, with horrible
diseases, and then performed vivisections upon them
without anesthetics.
Small children, already suffering terribly, were slowly
cut open and their organs removed while they
screamed in agony.
None of these murderers were punished, and many
became prominent and successful in postwar Japan.
Ishii himself was let off in return for giving the
United States his research data.
We are told that Emperor Hirohito (4/29/01-1/7/89)
was little more than a figurehead, a gentle little man
with an interest in marine biology, and he was
allowed to remain on the throne after the war
(now truly as a figurehead).
But, in fact, he had tremendous power and influence
in Japan before and during the war, and he approved
the invasions of Manchuria and China, and consented
to the torture and murder of prisoners and to the use
of poison gas in China. He approved the attack on
Pearl Harbor, made many military decisions during
the war, and encouraged the mass suicide of
Japanese civilians. American leaders ignored
all of this, and even covered up much of it.
