you know it’s bad when Nazi ambassadors and officials at the time condemned the events that took place in nanking
Do remember that at this point the Holocaust was basically still average anti-Semitism and the actual genocide hadn't started yet... they were happy to get rid of them, there were even plans to establish a Jewish State in Madagascar, but there were no mass killings just yet. The actual raids, concentration camps and mass murders only started around 1941, and the death camps started even later, as the Final Solution was only put into practice around the end of 1942 as the Germans started to lose momentum.
Not just condemned but actually pleaded to have something done to intervene
Kinda hard to believe also but the whermacht were among some of the armies that *didnt* rape others during ww2, albeit for racist reasons. Tho they deny it, they're a far more different society today
Fr and they said Nazis were bad, compared to the Japanese they were the good guys
I mean the people killed weren't Jewish SO...
If there are holocaust deniers, I'm sadly not surprised there are people that deny this horrible massacre
there were always and will always be, people that want to forget and deny the most shameful and terrible chapters of their history.
As a German I have to say, how much I am ashamed of what happened in both world wars. But denying it only leads to repetition of these mistakes.
I am more so ashamed that there are people in my country that think the actions of the Nazis were right. I am ashamed that these people are free to tell everybody about their sick believes and being proud of the atrocious things the Nazis have done during ww2.
Most of the modern holocaust deniers are from the Middle East that downplay it due to Israel. It really is a sad situation
Wait. Hol’ tf up~~ you’re telling me, that there’s ppl out there that exist in real life that genuinely believe that the Holocaust DIDN’T happen…???? I’m begging you to tell me it’s just a prank bro
@@-Shinoray- you should NOT be ashamed!! Embarrassed and thoughtful, yeah. But YOU did nothing wrong and I’m sure you help in the diminishing of racism in the world.
Difference is that holocaust deniers are not part of our government
Thank you for covering this in spite of the likely demonetisation- it needs to be covered and acknowledged.
Just wait, there's more... look up Japan's Unit 731
@@michaelmorford3932 unfortunately for my wellbeing but fortunately for commemorative reasons I'm already well aware.
@@michaelmorford3932no, this wasn't really needed to be acknowledged
Honestly it says something about youtube that they demonitize truly informative history
It disgusts me that they censor history like that
@@armstrong9497why wouldn't we acknowledge something so horrific? Forgetting something just leads to it happening again. I'll be first to admit I've lost my empathy, what they learned is still known due to the Victor giving freedom to the people who conducted the tests. Humans are curious focused. If someone else doesn't do it then they will. These things had to have happened eventually. We learned from it. It's sick, twisted but necessary. Otherwise imagine a world with the USA today didn't realise the destruction of gas attack, napalm, ect. We need to learn what isn't going to benefit the winning side if they utilize it. It's more or less why nuclear tests were halted when they saw the effects of "dirty bombs".
the fact that i am seeing young people today idolize emperor hirohito without understanding the depravity of his and his military's crimes is beyond me... i did a presentation on nanjing in my freshman year; my teacher told me to leave out any gruesome details, but i didn't. i needed people to know what happened.
I understand why my late grandfather believed that talking about the war was awful as it was so horrible. He was there on D-Day, and thankfully lived a long life
As a Chinese， i have to say thanks to you👍🏻
and hope the relationship between our two countries will be better and more peaceful
All japanese who responsible of imperial japan are worthless human being I don't care how cool those demon in these kid juvenile mind
The thing is, a lot of these crimes did not go from the emperors order. A lot of it came from the war cabinet members or general staff. Despite that, Hirohito is still reliable for a lot of damages and war crimes. He played a major role in Japanese warfare during the war.
The mother of the author of the book "The Rape of Nanking" lived through this, and told her daughter.
After publishing the book, she committed suicide due to the contact trauma of researching it and knowing what her mother went through.
It's heartbreaking that it literally cost a life to bring this story to the world.
Also, intergenerational trauma can actually be passed down through the DNA. So, we hold trauma within our bodies. The trauma of our parents and grandparents can still trigger us is a very direct way.
This is the Japan we seemed to have forgotten about, ruthless and cruel. They even killed prisoners of war and told theor own civilians that the US would do tthe same, which lead many ti kill themselves when Japan was invaded..
There are records of their own citizens, on Japanese soil, being executed in public - for not speaking Japanese.
The way they "remedy" this is by teaching young Japanese absolutely none of their atrocities. Then of course it sounds strange to young people. They aren't even educated about Nazi atrocities.
By “We” I think you mean non-Chinese people. Because I am chinese and have known the horrible war crimes done by Japan when since I was a child because of my grandparents watching Sino-Japanese war film….Chinese like me won’t ever forget and forgive the Japanese for what they’ve done!!!
@@Huobaojiqi Yes that's correct.
Me too I feel so sad,that's why I hate Japan@@Huobaojiqi
Only you all have forgotten you idiots, we filipinos didnt forget what theyve done lol
When the Nazi ambassador is horrified
It isn’t just ambassador, it’s the fascism and nazi
Nanjing is fake😂
He was!?
Yeh@@dizzydean2767
Yes.
Westerners perception of Japan nowadays: “kawaii, anime, uwu”
Japan’s history:
propaganda
I was an exchange student to a Tokyo girls high school back in 1990 for about 3mos. We went to a "peace garden" which was supposed to be a memorial of WWII... But it was all about "we must forgive the Americans for what they did to us" (ie: the nuclear strikes). NOT A SINGLE PERSON seemed to know anything about the disgusting atrocities committed by the Japanese during the war... They have deleted it from societal memory.
It really pissed me off.
And now flordia is trying to do the same. 😡😡
They are very interested in saving face, china too. That means they denied ever doing things and then made it official in the history books. That isn't just about WW!! but anything that doesn't make them look good, to this day.
That's why I wouldn't eat the fish in Japan, might be radioactive and they'd deny it up and down.
Meanwhile germany teaches what they did to all kids and made it illegal to deny the holocaust.
@lizzymia4556 what's up with Florida? I'm just a hop skip and jump away over here jn coastal georgia...
that's the japs for yer, they haven't altered one bit, just put a guy with a smiley face at the front, for all the nutjacks to hide behind.
@@randyjames1374 they banned abortion they banned books, and forbid the teaching of black history and all the shitty stuff colonizers and slavery. Got rid of healthcare for trans ppl and can now take trans kids away from parents.
The East Asian holocaust that we're rarely told about in the West
Probably because the US covered it all up 🙂 happy Wednesday
@@knightofsvea604MacArthur did make a deal with Japan....
@@knightofsvea604 we did for at least some of the worst atrocities committed, it was similar to operation paperclip. We gave secret pardons and created cover up stories for a lot of the members of the manshu detachment 731 in exchange for exclusive access to the "research" they conducted. The "research" was about biological and chemical warfare and truly unforgivable, pointless human experiments to put it very, very lightly.
Because we never hear about genocides unless it was of the chosen people. We should have genocide museums rather than holocaust museums.
its so sad，millions of Chinese were killed by invaders during 1931-1945. In Chinese we should learn detailed ww2 history and we have to pass difficult history test to learn how other west countries fight the nazis.
I always find it crazy that nothing about any of this was actually taught in my history classes, or at least nothing mentioned in more than a blurb. I was always confused about Hiroshima, but knew that Japan had sided with Nazi Germany and it wasn't tested upon. This was around the turn of the millennium. And yes I paid attention.
We actually extensively covered Nagasaki and Hiroshima in 5th grade, I think it was 1997. Not one mention of the Japanese invasion of China though. Very sad history there.
Ditto. I took 3 world history classes in high school, one focused on East Asia itself, Nanking wasn't really mentioned. Learned about it in college, as an Asian Studies major. Most of my friends still didn't learn about it
Hey man, if it makes you feel better ~ you already know way tf more about history than I do, just based on this comment lol😂 woohoo, too public school’! 🤤🤤🤤🤤
@@laynedoe3455 oh I love history now. TH-cam gives me access to way better documentaries than the History channel ever did when I was a kid! If you're open to starting a deeper interest in history, then I suggest to pick any area that you have a curiosity of or feel drawn to, then pick any time in history you might be interested in, and follow those lines to where they meet!!
@@angela_somanythings5670
"Nanjing Massacre" is Chinese propaganda. In Japan, a thorough study of the "Nanjing Massacre" has progressed, and now the actual state of Chinese propaganda has been completely clarified.
However, most of the countries other than Japan were on the side of the Allies, so the truth revealed in Japan is hidden from the rest of the world.
So it's no surprise that you believe Chinese propaganda.
However, if only the facts are properly verified, everyone will be able to understand that the "Nanjing Massacre" is false propaganda.
If you want to know the truth, I will tell you.
Mad how they play the innocent victim card after getting glassed
I never heard of such terrible thing. That's crazy what happened.
More than 300000 Chinese people were killed by Japanese army on December 13rd,1937.
I've read a lot about the Nanking massacre. I recall that an embassy employee who was a German Nazi was disgusted by what he saw.
John Rabe was not a member of the German embassy
I think the man person you are recalling is called John Rabe. He saved countless chinese lives from the imperial Japanese and is a HERO for us!
@@Huobaojiqi → Thanks, that was him.
If anyone wants to do due diligence on this subject, watch the doc, The Rape of Nanking. It came out when I worked at Blockbuster (03-11) and I made the very terrible mistake of watching it and it really fucked me up. They would throw infants in the air and make a game of who could "catch" the baby with their bayonets. They would then rape the mother as the child died. And that's the *most* pleasant part of what the Japanese did.
I couldn’t stomach that.
Japanese war crimes are up there with some Mesopotamian pre-civilization's barbarism. Some of the absolute worst things human beings have done by the firearm and sword. Japanese soft power is full of this anime and fantasy, for a reason lol.
These people tried to re-create the Black Death; the Plague. Chinese were forcibly inoculated with STDs by Japanese, then forced to spread these STDs among each other at gunpoint.
In this same camp, a scientist froze a Chinese toddler to death, supercooling its lower half. This entirely-frozen child was shattered like ice in front of its mother. This was done under the umbrella of "scientific frostbite research". I love Japanese history and I have been studying their language for some years.
Being half-Asian myself helps me understand. The concept of "human rights" wasn't put forward by the Japanese people until around the Meiji Era if I'm remembering correctly. "human rights" just weren't a natural consideration lol
@@AdamOwenBrowningIt's actually worse. Chinese weren't even considered human by many soldiers. So why should you feel bad about a bit "playing with lower beings"?
But if it's a sad consolation, Japan did even worse stuff towards the Okinawans. And even fellow REAL Japanese were easily sacrificed without thinking twice about it.
The British empire were the worst ... thy litterary killed 10s of millions of indians alone! If you count the rest of the British colonies the death count will rise too the 100s of millions 💯
The Chinese movie on Unit 731, the Japanese camp where they performed sick medical experiments on the Chinese, is equally horrific.
They told us in school the Japanese military was honourable in war.
Apparently this didnt extend to war crimes.
What school system did you attend?
Imagine being so brutal, evil, and sadistic that the literal Nazis say "bro wtf that's too far"
Crazy that schools don’t teach you about some of the truly fucked up shit like this
My school history classes taught us farming in the 18th century. Thousands of years of history, and we got that
@@SamuelBlack84 wild
It's not particularly healthy to see what atrocities happen or are happening. And to be fair noone, especially not the US are really the "good guys". Every culture has a pretty murderous past some even have a brutal present.
right, like they don't talk about how the pilgrims would dig up dead native americans and eat them when they were dying of hunger. It brings a completely different spin to Thanksgiving dinner.
We had an entire day to read about it
Interesting thing about the deniers is that a group asked Japanese soldiers about it and many gave first hand accounts of the atrocities they committed. More or less bragged about it. Horrible
Now you know why they are making all those 'cute' animes and manga.
A kawaii kitty mask can't hide the blood-soaked truth...
@@sirhenrymorgan1187they fooled people long enough to belive the whole its a safe inviting candyland narrative
This gotta be the weirdest comment
Cuz they got humbled
It does no difference their cartoon are disgusting that promote pedophile, degenerate
Shoutout to Oppenheimer for leveling the playing field and getting revenge
New york is next. So, don't worry. Russia and its allies are very interested in dropping a beautiful looking nuke in centre of new york.
the movie one?
Yeah common Oppenheimer W his wonderful creations Little Boy and Fat Man really humbled those disgusting war criminals🗿
@@Huobaojiqi what?
@@Huobaojiqiyes
I've argued with people who deny it nothing you say will convince them it happened
I encountered one such person. Tried very hard to offer "proof" that such atrocities never occurred.
@miaomiaochan all genocide deniers are the same tbh they'll say it's made up to basically slander the people who committed it and use "alternative history and facts" to show its not true. They also love using sources as trustworthy as a white van with free candy written on it.
You know at least the German people stepped up to own their misdeeds of WWII. The Japanese aren't noble enough to do the same.
Due to their Asian heritage they are far more interested in saving face than admitting guilt.
@@bulldog71ss33 I'd change it to Asian culture not heritage, but its splitting hairs when its Asians in Asia
Because there was a deliberate and prolonged effort by the allies to hammer into German citizens the full details of the horrors that happened in the Nazi concentration camps. The allies didn't want the Germans to feel nostalgia for Hitler's Germany and start thinking that the reputations of the concentration camps were exaggerated.
How's paying for the crime you personally have never committed "noble"? That's a dumb manipulation used by politicians to suck money from other countries, by chauvinists to advocate for their hatred and by snowflakes to victimize themselves. Fuck that mindset.
Not all Germans have done so. The Nazi party is alive and well there, but it rarely raises its ugly head.
The Japanese are also not terribly keen on teaching their history to their children. Sadly most don't know about these atrocities. They went on to decimate and murder their way through much of south East Asia. Australian and British troops in that arena were massively outmanned and also ended up in horrific concentration camps. They made it as far as Australia but thankfully with the help of the Americans who eventually joined the war in Dec 1941 they were defeated.
Never forget your history, particularly if it's not pretty because your duty is to never let it happen again.
I remember learning in history class in high school a story of Japanese soldiers that would play a game by tossing babies into the air and trying to catch them with their bayonets
My school taught the same thing.
Which school cause I was never taught this in the schools I went to
I often hear people say what a wonderful country Japan is, clean, efficient and no crime - yet their behaviour in World War II was horrific.
So much of peace and no crime their ex PM got assasinated in broad daylight 😂
Maybe they learn from their terrible mistakes.
Yes, it is hard to imagine that the Japanese nation committed such barbaric and crimes against humanity decades ago. Thanks to the US for transforming Japanese society. However, when I think about these things happening in the past and the possibility that they will happen again in the future...it’s scary to think about it.
@@balemohamad6135😂
@@HaleVisse感谢发声，但是台湾应该很多年轻人喜欢日本吧？
Thanks for covering this
Sad fact: the attrocities at nanking were so big that even Nazi Germany issued an official complaint and condemned the event
The literal SS considered it to be excesive
do you have a link for more information? 😊
The SS did exactly the same. They just did it where the world couldn't see.
@@MistahMatzahnah
What Japan did at Nanking far worse than what Nazi did!!!
@@SaretGnasohI wouldn't go that far but they are close enough for both to be disgusting as shit
@@SaretGnasohProbably when it came to torture the Japanese were worse but when it came to genocide they aren’t so different. A similar number of Slavs had been killed by the Germans as Chinese killed by the Japanese.
We have a reason why China is always on edge and Japan won't even apologize let alone acknowledge the atrocities. That's cold but I get it. 😢
It's pointless blaming the current generation. They had nothing to do with it. Except denying it
@@SamuelBlack84yeah, which is honestly far worse than anything else. denying all the millions of lives lost and families destroyed to their hands, without any form of acknowledgement or apology.
@@SamuelBlack84but way are the Japanese triggered when oppenheimer came out this year? They're not the ones getting nuked.
@@GabrieI69 Maybe, because it relates to them being nuked in some way
@GaberieI69 exactly 💯
I suggest you watch the 2011 film The Flowers of War, which tells the story of a group of students from a foreign school who survived this massacre and how a foreigner rescued them, very graphic in several scenes but excellent for conveying what they felt the city's. Interesting fact: Cristian Bale participates and like every film that talks about massacres carried out by Japanese, it was banned in Japan for being considered liars and defamatory towards Japan.
Im a conservative, I believe when liberals say that white people should pay for slavery that it’s stupid. At the same time, I am a Korean, my family suffered and survived to tell the tale, which makes me understand why certain black people feel the way they do.
Japan invaded Manchuria in 1931,,and don't forget Unit 731.
Unit 731 is fucking disgusting incident
Had to Google this after watching the video. Its absolutely INSANE I've never heard of this. It's arguably as horrific as the Nazi concentration camps and this is the first I've ever heard of it.
We need to stop giving Japan a pass on this.
Fr
This is when the atom bomb becomes appropriate technology
No, definitively not. The bomb didn't kill the soldiers that done the war crimes. It just kills other innocent lives. The atomic bombs made hiroshima and nagasaki to the hell on earth. And many people are still suffering from radiation.
You always need to punish the right people. Else, you make more hate and more war.
So if you commit a heinous crime, it's OK to burn your wife and your children to death?
You Americans and your fixation on Atom bombs...summer of 45, general Le May destroyed 68 Japanese cities with out the Atom bomb.... WW2 the british gave you many weapons. The worst thing they could have given America was nuclear technology...everyone involved regretted giving it to idiot Americans
Yep people say Japan is a victim of WWII because of the atom bombs but that’s not even 1% as bad and evil as the atrocities they have committed…
Finally someone that covers something that isn’t something negative about China but rather something informational
Japanese soldiers were trained to believe that anyone not Japanese was barely human and anyone not Asian was subhuman.
Yes, the scary thing is that during WWar II, the Japanese actually committed cannibalism. Sorry, I feel sick to my stomach when I think about this🤮
@@HaleVisse
Look up the Chichijima incident.
Somebody you've heard of escaped being captured and eaten by Japanese officers.
The shit that the Germans and the Japanese did to innocent people is just unfathomable evil and they were praised as heros for it. I just cannot wrap my head around how someone could do something so unspeakable to someone else and think that they’re doing the right thing. The shit that Jews, Chinese, or anyone else in the crosshairs of the Germans and Japanese is just so terrible, words do not exist that could describe just how bad it was.
Nanking was so brutal that it was actually condemned as an atrocity by Nazi ambassadors at the time. The depths that human evil can reach are truly unfathomable
Yeah bud but they weren't the only one's. Sorry to burst your bubble but the west was arguably worse when you consider what they had been doing to their overseas territories for over 200 years.
@@gingerbread7829 oh I’m aware of what we’ve done to people but what is worse than what the Germans and Japanese did?
@@aviationgaming1564 yes lol! You've got the blood of over tens of millions of people on your hands.
@@aviationgaming1564 the only reason I say arguably is because in the little time that they had to do so, the Germans and the Japanese killed a lot of people so they would have defo been worse in the long run but that of course didn't happen so ultimately it is still the western powers who have the most blood on their hands in the early modern age.
Yeah, not to mention Japan's little scientific research base "Unit 731" in Harbin, China also. The horrors in and around that place would make any evil scientist weep.
Harbin is located not far from where my mom's side of the family lives. I only just learned about how close Unit 731 was to one of my ancestral homes. Wild.
And when they do acknowledge it they try to dimish how bad it was.
Nanking should be remembered not only for the number of people slaughtered but for the cruel manner in which many met their deaths. Chinese men were used for bayonet practice and in decapitation contests. An estimated 20,000 - 80,000 Chinese women were raped. Many soldiers went beyond rape to disembowel women, slice off their breasts, and nail them alive to walls. Fathers were forced to rape their daughters, and sons their mothers, as other family members watched. Not only did live burials, castration, the carving of organs, and the roasting of people become routine, but more diabolical tortures were practiced, such as hanging people by their tongues on iron hooks or burying people to their waists and watching them get torn apart by German shepherds. So sickening was the spectacle that even Nazis in the city were horrified, one proclaiming the massacre to be the work of bestial machinery
Chinese got what they deserved 😂
Trying to comprehend this and the other stuff japan did is extremely depressing…
Yet Japan will never stop playing victim.
What a sad truth.
My dad was a US Ebmbassy gaurd in Peking an witnessed Japanese atrocities.
He survived the war in the Pacific and Korea, retiring after 22 active duty years and 8 years in the Fleet Reserve.
Japan: “Nan what ? Never heard about it “
None of my Japanese exchange students (during the 1990's) were taught about their country's invasion of China and the atrocities committed by their grandfathers.
they dont even teach it nowadays in 2023 still. in their history book, only one or two sentences cover what they did in China.
And those sentences are romanticized the invasion and hiding the massacre
The Japanese government has done a huge disservice to their young people by not teaching them about this massacre. And some Americans want schools to stop teaching about our history of slavery for the same reason: pride.
My mother, Chinese, got sent to Hawaii in 1938 from China. She sometimes would talk about the things the Japanese soldiers would do to the young women, horrible things. Since she was about 12 years old, they feared for her safety and spend what monies they could get to buy her passage on a freighter to Hawaii where she had relatives willing to take her in. She also saw and heard some of the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7th. At first, she said she thought they were the military having practice until the large explosions and everyone was running, seeking shelter. She said once they found out it was the Japanese, she thought that they have found me as everyone feared Hawaii was going to be invaded.
我为你的母亲感到难过。中华民族是永垂不朽的！我同时也为你母亲的坚强感到自豪
I am a Chinese. Now, a large number of Japanese say let go of hatred in the Chinese media. In this regard, I want to say: they didn't even say anything like apology. How can we let go of hatred?
OMG. This is utterly horrific. I have never heard about this in my life. Why don’t they teach people that this happened? I am in shock and sick. Those children… how could anyone be soo evil? Omg WHY 🙏🏾😪
For some reason, nobody talks about this
The japanese are the US's allies. And they don't want it mentioned.
It's fucked up
Because of weebs and Japan being US's ally.
When my great grandmother passed away we opened a trunk in her basement and found photos of the Nanjing Massacre. Turns out her uncle was in china during the massacre and had taken many photos of the event. Before my great grandmother passed she had told me her uncle had hid in a barrel from the Japanese during the Nanjing massacre but I never new about the photos. Can’t remember where now but those photos have been sent to a museum to persevere so that history my never forget.
Japan doesn't acknowledge their horrific crimes during WW2 but other countries have acknowledged their crimes. Just goes to show how the Japanese believed more than anyone they were doing good even though they were not patriotism is a deadly thing
Not just that, they try to get other countries to tear down memorials of those events and make shrines and statues in praise of the IJA.
@@mobiletaskforceepsilon1172 damn
The death rate in Nazi prisoner of war camps was 2%; POW death rate in Japanese camps was 48%
This is demonic. I understand why hell is enlarging itself daily
Heaven is 0 but hell is 100, go to hell
Key word "some" in Japan don't admit to this being done by the army. "Some".
Not all of them are ignorant of it, just like not all Americans are ignorant of Sand Creek and Wounded Knee, or of My Lai and Kent State.
That's what's always bothered me. Germany was rightfully shamed for decades because of what the nazi party did with the holocaust and starting the second World War, and the key figures of nazi high command are seen as monsters. But japan who did similarly horrific things got off light by history after ww2. Some even act as if japan was inhumanely wronged when they lost the war with the nukes being dropped on their cities. But the way I see it now, if you gave imperial japan nuclear weapons, what makes you think they would stop at two bombs?
No country was without sin in ww2 and millions of innocents suffered all over the world for it. But japan has almost gotten away with their horrors because the west made allies with them and helped them build a new economy. I think these events and many more untold stories from ww2 need to be made more publicly aware just as the holocaust is
Nah japan were far more brutal than the nazis
As a Chinese I still need to remember it, it is like a trauma to the whole country
And to this day, people still deny why America needed to use nukes to stop these kinds of atrocities.
The atomic bombing on japan is the only thing i could agree with US crazy action
The nuclear bombs didn't stop this. These crimes were years in the past by the time the USA destroyed Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
@@MistahMatzah Many years? Do you mean 1937-1945? Perhaps you don't know that the China Expeditionary Army（支那派遣軍） were still doing a lot of killing in China in 1944? By the way you are reminded that a Japanese unit with the number 731 has been active in the northeast of China.

Exactly the same thing with Volhynia slaughter, probably the most horrific massacre ever. Perpetrators still deny they did that
So do I think they deserved the A bomb?
Oh HELL YES!
Too few of them. I am disappointed. I read a lot of books on the Japanese. Nazis where like Jesus compared to them.
The issue with this kinda stuff tho is it impacts civilians more than the actual people committing the horrific acts and civilians shouldn't have to die because of corrupt government and army
Well that's a braindead take. Its not like the nukes targetted the military who did that shit, they mostly killed civilians as well. You rejoicing about killing civillians makes you no better.
Yeah because all those civilians were responsible for those war crimes, imagine thinking punishing one for the actions of another makes sense. By that logic Merica is in desperate need of some bombing.
@@leobeboop4944 if u found any record of Japanese civilian protesting against the action of army or goverment pls share with us.
They were well informed about bombing, and the bomb was set for army camp and factories which were established on the bomb locations.

Omg!!! This is horrible, smh!!! As a collective, we should be ashamed of the things we have done to humanity 😢
Blame japan, not everyone
And there are those who wondered why we bombed Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

@@ourwater7497 I think that was the least they could do after the shit they pulled don't you
@@arnragnarson1586 Yeah but Japenese government is denying it.
@@ourwater7497 they'd deny being Japanese if it suited them
@@arnragnarson1586 True lol. They will say Japan didn't exist back then.
Disgusting! Hope they faced trials for war crimes.
Not the government, only the soldiers
Well of course they deny it. Why would they admit their soldiers were monsters?
Germany
20 million? My grandma never gave me the numbers but…I thought it was 300,000.
And now we think of the Japanese as so very civilized: polite, clean, a high standard of living.
They don't teach this in their schools let that sink in
Yet Japan continues to deny these actions.
Just with European who deny thier colonization crimes in Asia and Africa?
@@Aryanbarhwho denies that??
@@venturatheace1 European specially british
@@Aryanbarhno they dont lol
Thank you
This was a rough lesson in my World History Classes, not every American school misses the mark in teaching truths
Please keep in mind that this happened during the rule of Imperialist Japan.
Imperial family is still highly revered in Japan
@@ernna6357same like in uk 🇬🇧? British empire doing more cruel Genocide than any other ethical group
@@naturelover6114 its the topic of ww2. Uk mornachy was f by nazi, did any the british royal family committed atrocities during this era?
@@ernna6357 they dont do jack. its basically just tourist money
It's amazing how bad people can be to each other. Hopefully, in America, our system of checks and balances will keep us from doing crazy stuff like that.
How f... Ck... Up is war.
Very
Japan will be held accountable for eternity until they come and face the truth and not only apologize, but also teach their next generations of what atrocities they committed.
but unfortunately japan is deluding themselves by painting lies of their 'victimhood'. this will only make their sad fate inevitable. japan will fall not because of their crimes but because of their hubris in the face of it.
You're deluding yourself if you believe anyone cares about any other genocide than the jewish holocaust.
America held them accountable- twice.
@@CountGremlin being held accountable comes after losing the war. stop victim washing japan.
@@CountGremlin lol
More than 35 Millions actually...
That's the Japanese for you
the japs were brutal yeah
The world can breathe a sigh of relief knowing that your Japan won't be here in 100 years.
at least germany admits to the atrocities they committed.
MAN IS SO WONDERFUL
Never mind the Nanking Massacre. Or any other japanese war atrocities in Asia. It's the hiroshima and nagasaki bombing that keeps westerners in tears.
pearl harbor lol
@@hollow_dystopia Eh, nowadays that's veering towards debatable. What with the young ones today. It's the older and aging generations that keeps it to their hearts to "never forget".
@@joeldelica8706 yes you should be ashamed and blamed of Hiroshima and Nagasaki
?????? Hiroshima and Nagasaki was nothing honestly if you look at Japan warcrimes as a whole
@@dominusdone5023 Yes... but I was just being sarky to those virtue signalers whom the japanese revisionist loves dearly.
It’s not unknown in Asia. The government never make us forget, the stories of comfort women in Korea, Nanjing massacre in China, battle of Pasir Panjang closer to home in our textbooks. We never forget but the Japanese seems to have
I know many Chinese people. They will never forgive or forget and rejoice in every misfortune that befalls the Japanese.
And that's fine cos the Chinese are absolute bastards too.... believe me, whilst perhaps not necessarily quite so brutal, the 200,000 Nanking dead pales into insignificance the 30 million the Communists of China left in the wake, moreover, of their own people - not even in a war.
Yes, the Japanese were I agree, in many ways even more brutal, subhuman and insane that the Germans - bit whereby you even start to find the words for a regime that killed 1500 times the Nanking death toll, of its own people, just to impose a criminal, twisted, surreal, hypocritical, fake regime where it was encouraged by the Party for husbands to turn on wives and denounce them - likewise close friends or schoolchildren on their teachers? Really charming, I'm sure.
If you're going to ascribe the sins of their grandfather's onto the current Japanese people, just make sure you do the same to your Chinese friends too.....
Thank you, as a Chinese
Not me, I’m not as filled with hate as my people
And people dare to complain about the nukes when the civilian population supported the high command.
They nailed people to walls, threw babies in the air and caught them on Bayonets or swords
They also beat them to death and stabbed them in the butts
