To the people of WWII, the Japanese were nothing but a dirty vermin to be exterminated.
Only in America would we have Leftards feeling sorry for the enemy. The Japanese military before and during World War II committed numerous atrocities against civilian and military personnel. Its surprise
attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, prior to a
declaration of war and without warning killed 2,403
neutral military personnel and
civilians and wounded 1,247 others.
[24][25] Large scale massacres, rapes, and looting against civilians were committed, most notably the
Sook Ching and the
Nanjing Massacre, and the use of around 200,000 "
comfort women", who were forced to serve as prostitutes for the Japanese military.
[26]
The
Imperial Japanese Army also engaged in the execution and harsh treatment of Allied military personnel and
POWs.
Biological experiments were conducted by
Unit 731 on prisoners of war as well as civilians; this included the use of biological and chemical weapons authorized by Emperor Shōwa himself.
[27] According to the 2002
International Symposium on the Crimes of Bacteriological Warfare, the number of people killed in
Far East Asia by Japanese germ warfare and human experiments was estimated to be around 580,000.
[28]
The members of Unit 731, including Lieutenant General
Shirō Ishii, received
immunity from General MacArthur in exchange for germ warfare data based on
human experimentation. The deal was concluded in 1948.
[29][30] The Imperial Japanese Army frequently used
chemical weapons. Because of fear of retaliation, however, those weapons were never used against Westerners, but against other Asians judged "inferior" by imperial propaganda.
[31] For example, the Emperor authorized the use of toxic gas on 375 separate occasions during the
Battle of Wuhan from August to October 1938.
If any of the people here who fought in that war, lost family or lived through that hell were to hear the snowflakes of today doubting our resolve to defeat them, they'd beat the living crap out of you (if you were lucky) to either shooting you themselves for sedition to having you turned in as a spy and a traitor. While Germany and Italy fought to regain territory, the reasons why Japan entered the Pacific theater against us remains unclear other than an unmitigated act of aggression. Fuck the Japs.
