Japanese emperor visits Iwo Jima to honor war dead 80 years after one of WWII’s fiercest battles

Only four more letters. You can do it..


Iris Chang, author of the book Rape of Nanjing, wrote one of the most comprehensive accounts of Japanese war atrocities in China. In her book, she estimated that the number of Chinese women raped by Japanese soldiers ranged from 20,000 to 80,000. Chang also states that not all rape victims were women. Some Chinese men were sodomized and forced to perform "repulsive sex acts". Japanese soldiers also raped teenage boys.
 
Chang's book has long since been discredited, although there were certainly atrocities committed during that terrible war.
