Two Japanese written in sacred scriptures
The Golden Book of Israel is about Jews who have contributed greatly to Jews, and the Silver Book is about foreigners.This is a sacred scripture that will be preserved forever.And two Japanese are recorded in the Golden Book even though they are foreigners.
The two Japanese rescued many Jews
The first was Lieutenant Senhiro Yasue.When I went to Siberia, I knew there were Jews.At that time, no one in Japan studied Jews, and Anjiang began to study Jews.Thousands of Jews fled to Manchuria to avoid Hitler's persecution.Anjiang said, "Japan's ideal spirit is not to discriminate against any ethnic group."Now is the time to promote the true intention of the nation's foundation," he pleaded with the Japanese government, saying, "The government will treat it fairly. "This saved many Jews.
The second is Lieutenant Kiichiro Higuchi, who fled from Nazi persecution to Otopol Station on the Siberian Railway, but the Manchurian Ministry of Foreign Affairs has suspended entry permits.Seeing this, Higuchi provided school lunches, clothing and medical care to Jews on the same day after day.In addition, he arranged for a stalled departure, settled in Manchuria, and prepared to move to Shanghai.He negotiated directly with the president of the South Manchuria Railway and asked for his understanding and escorted him to Shanghai on the Mantetsu special train.Called the Higuchi Route , the route increased from 245 in 1938 to 3,574 in 1940.It is estimated that about 20,000 Jews escaped.
POINT The spirit of Hachikoichiu is the sense of the world in which the world coexists as a family without racial discrimination, which Japan advocated during the Great East Asian War.

Four Japanese soldiers, including Hiroo Onoda, who hid in the jungle of the Philippines and continued the operation for 29 years.
Hiroo Onoda: Entered Kurume Daiichi Army Preparatory Officer School in January 1944. In December of the same year, he was assigned to the 14th Area Army Intelligence Department, which was in charge of the Philippine Defense Campaign, and was dispatched to the Philippines with the duties of a remnant and commander of the game. The division commander, Lieutenant General Shizuo Yokoyama, said, "Break the jade is not at all . Do your best for 3 or 5 years. I will definitely pick you up. Be done. After the end of the war, the Japanese government knew from information from the Philippines that Japanese soldiers were hiding in the Jaguru on Lubang Island, and various search activities were carried out, but the four Japanese soldiers did not appear.
Yuichi Akatsu: He left the group in September 1949 and surrendered to the US military in June 1950.
Shoichi Shimada: He died in a shooting battle with the Philippine police force on May 7, 1954, when he was shot through his eyebrows. He is 41 years old.
Kinshichi Kozuka: He was shot in the shoulder and died in a shooting battle with the Philippine police force in January 1972. He is 51 years old.
The Filipino government searched for Japanese soldiers, sometimes in a shooting battle.
In 1974, Norio Suzuki, an adventurer inspired by search activities, visited Lubang Island and succeeded in contacting Onoda. In the conversation, Onoda tells him that he will surrender if instructed by his superior. Onoda, who had been hiding for 29 years, read newspaper articles left by the Japanese search team and knew information about Japan's postwar economic development. But then why he couldn't find the command system , and why he didn't command himself was the reason he didn't surrender.
Onoda will leave the jungle in response to an order to cancel the mission by his former superior, Taniguchi.
(1) Due to a great command, the armed group will be released from all operational actions.
(2) The staff member's group will be released from all duties according to Sakumei Ko No. 2003.
(3) Each unit belonging to the General Staff Department and the persons concerned are directly involved in the battle and the work is stopped. If you don't get it, you can contact the U.S. Army or the Philippine Army directly.
Even after Mr. Kotsuka passed away and became alone, his hiding life continued, and his duties were canceled by his former superior.
There are 14 questions about the Nanjing massacre.Witnesses and trials that only raise questions.Let's count 100,000 people.
1. The Tokyo Tribunal and the Nanjing Military Tribunal were held at the same time, but 300,000 people were killed in the Nanjing Military Tribunal.In the Tokyo trial, there were more than 100,000 people who did not reach 200,000 people, but I wonder if the evidence was shared.What is the error between 100,000 and 200,000?
2.John Labe, a German who stood on the stand at the Tokyo trial, testified that 50,000 people were slaughtered. Where did this figure come from?How many 50,000 people have fled alone?Even if there are no obstacles at all, it will be hard work.If you have time to answer questions 1 and 2, try searching for and counting images of Michigan Stadium (107,601 seating capacity) .
3. More than 100 air strikes have been carried out against civilians, with 100,000 deaths per air raid.The first atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima killed 80,000 people and Nagasaki killed 60,000 people.At that time, there was a Japanese army in Nanjing that had more destructive power than the atom bomb.This is definitely the strongest army in the world.Then why did Japan lose the war?
4.Let's see how we can kill 300,000 people.Direct artillery and grenades such as tanks and cannons will not be effective for people fleeing in all directions.Then why don't you lock civilians in buildings that you can't escape?So I remember Auschwitz, the largest Jewish camp in the Nazis.However, the maximum capacity is only 20,000 people, so would it be possible to make more than 10 in three days?But how should civilians be taken there?
5.Reverend Maggie, an American who stood on the witness stand at the Tokyo trial, complained of slaughter, but when asked how many he actually saw, he found 1 murder, 1 rape and 1 theft.100,000 → 200,000 → 300,000 people were killed, and where was he?
6.When the Japanese army arrived in Nanjing, the Kuomintang commander left the army behind and panicked, dressed in casual clothes and dressed as civilians, fled to their homes to continue fighting.How should soldiers and civilians be distinguished?For good soldiers who continue to fight with civilians as shields.
7.The Nanjing Safety Zone records that most of the Nanjing citizens have evacuated to the Nanjing Safety Zone (non-combat zones under international law).And The Japanese military did not attack the Nanjing Safe Zone.The Nanjing Safe Zone testified, but who did the Japanese army kill?
8. John Rabe wrote in his later Rabe diary that he witnessed the killing of civilians by the Japanese army with Mosel guns.Mr. Rabe, please check one thing.At that time, there was no Moselle gun in Japan.This is a Chinese gun. And the Moselle gun is your motherland.Isn't it manufactured in Germany?
9.Rabe's diary says that the body of a woman with bamboo stuck in her genital organs is scattered everywhere.In Japan, there are cases of rape and murder of women, but there is no custom of stabbing bamboo in the genital organs.What country's custom is this?And whose work is it?
10.Before marching to Nanjing, there was a big battle in Shanghai.Defeated Chinese troops carried out scorched soil operations.It is a withdrawal that sets fire to the streets, robs money and goods, rapes, and leaves nothing to be gained even if enemy soldiers occupy it.At the same time, soldiers can get spoils even though they are defeated.It was an operation carried out by the Qing army, which fought and fled to the Korean Peninsula during the Gapsin Incident.
11. Nanjing Safety Zone was also a place to grasp the population of Nanjing.War refugees and others kept resident records to evacuate to the Nanjing Safe Zone and immigrate.The population recorded just before the Japanese attack on Nanjing was 200,000 .The Japanese military seems to have killed civilians over the population.
12. China's first unified family register management began in 1958 with the Doorway Registration Ordinance.Until then, China's population had accumulated only what it had recorded in its own way in the administrative divisions of the region, but there was no unified management was carried out.What kind of resident records did the Nanjing Military Court adopt?
13. Fifty-nine thousand people died in the Great East Japan Earthquake. How can you figure out the number of deaths?This is common in other large-scale disasters.It's not a foolish way to count dead bodies or adopt rumors.The number of deaths + missing + number of survivors = the current number of residents will be deducted from the increase in the number of new residents due to migration.Then, when the number of missing people is confirmed to be dead, it moves on to the number of deaths.Counting the number of victims of the earthquake with the naked eye?It's impossible.
14. The Nanjing Safe Zone record increased to 250,000 people in January of the following month.The number of civilians over the population has increased by 50,000 in a month.What kind of magic did the Japanese Army use?
There are many contradictions about the Nanjing incident.In the first place, the Far East Military Tribunal held at the same time and the Nanjing Military Tribunal are completely different.
Indian independence and Fujiwara Iwaichi's speech that touched Indian soldiers and Indian independence team.
Fujiwara Rock City, which supported Indian independence
Fujiwara who did not discriminate against Indians
Towards the liberation of India
Indian independence and Japan
Fujiwara declared as follows. ``If the Indian soldiers pledge allegiance to the liberation of their homeland and wish to join the Indian National Army, the Japanese military will stop treating them as prisoners of war, recognize their freedom to struggle, and provide them with full support.''
In February 1942, two days after the fall of Singapore to the Japanese army, approximately 50,000 Indian prisoners of war from the British and Indian forces gathered at Fara Park and were delighted by the speech given by Major Iwaichi Fujiwara. The 10,000-odd Indians who responded became the core of the later Indian independence movement.
Unlike the British, Major Fujiwara and others were admired by the people of India, who did not discriminate against people. He shared meals with Indian soldiers and had Indians lead them. While traveling in a car, Major Fujiwara began to fall asleep leaning against an Indian prisoner of war who had just surrendered, and the Indians were surprised at his lack of alertness.
India was under British colonial rule for approximately 190 years, starting with the rule of the East India Company. In addition to heavy taxes, they were forced to grow commercial crops, leading to food shortages and repeated large-scale famines that killed around 30 million people.
While racial discrimination was commonplace, Japan aimed to liberate Asia and supported Indian activists seeking independence.
Major Fujiwara was selected for this mission in September 1941. Major Fujiwara, who went to Thailand, made steady contact with Mr. Pritam Singh, an Indian independence activist, through his thin network of contacts, and succeeded in recruiting hundreds of Indian soldiers from the British Indian army. At the end of 1941, at the call of Major Fujiwara, the Indian National Army was established, headed by Captain Mohansingh, an Indian soldier.
On August 15, 1947, India gained independence from British rule.
A nationwide pilgrimage by Emperor Showa after the war.The distance traveled is 33,000 kilometers.
Immediately after the war, the Emperor visits GHQ MacArthur's office.MacArthur thought Emperor came to ask for help in exile.It has never been seen in Western history that the head of state who lost the war remains in the country.It was common sense in the world to change dynasties, execute, and exile.Hitler has already committed suicide and Mussolini has been executed.
The Emperor said to MacArthur, "No matter what happens to me, I want you to save the lives of the Japanese people"Surprised by this, MacArthur wrote in his memoir that his fundamental view of Japanese rule has changed.
After that, the Emperor will go on a nationwide tour.The purpose was to encourage each and every citizen by walking all over Japan.There was nothing the Emperor could do for the people during the occupation, and it was a conclusion that he was worried about.
It begins in the midst of a Far East military trial.GHQ disbanded japanese army and the people can throw stones at Emperor or hang him on the neck.In the confusion of the wilderness after the defeat.Walk in the places where anyone can kill you.It was a trip of the Emperor with that determination.
Touring in a crowd of tens of thousands of people, The total distance traveled nationwide is 33,000 km, and the total number of days is 165 days.There were only a few companions in GHQ.I was told that plants and trees will not grow in Hiroshima, where the atomic bomb was dropped.As a country, there was no knowledge of radioactivity at all, only rumors spread, and no one tried to get close except those who lived in Hiroshima.
In 1947, the Emperor was in Hiroshima.People were encouraged, and people other than Hiroshima changed their minds to think, "Now that the Emperor has come, Hiroshima should be fine."
It is said that many Japanese were brave to make a pilgrimage to post-war Japan, which became Yakinohara.
The nationwide tour was far beyond GHQ's expectations.I don't understand people welcoming me here and there, let alone a stone.Britain and other countries reported that the situation was surprising and spread throughout Europe.
The long tour ends with Hokkaido as the final stop.The only regret is that I couldn't visit Okinawa, which Emperor had hoped for all my life.His Majesty Akihito wanted to visit Okinawa where was under U.S.A.
Western countries were surprised that the Japanese's love for the Emperor remained unchanged after the defeat.
Japan welcomed at the Bandung Conference - Participant Shunichi Kase is the man who drafted the Greater East Asia Joint Declaration
In 1955, Shunichi Kase, a special adviser to the Minister for Foreign Affairs, attended the first Asian-African Conference, attended by 29 countries, and described the reactions of the countries at the time as follows. The African and Asian countries were warmly welcomed, saying, "Thank you for coming," and "It's all thanks to Japan." They said, "The Greater East Asia Joint Declaration, which outlined Japan's brave struggle for the Asian people and its significance, shines in history."
The head of the Japanese delegation, Tatsunosuke Takasaki, Director-General of the Economic Deliberation Agency, and his party were warmly welcomed by the representatives of newly independent emerging countries in Asia and Africa, and were greeted with warm words one after another. Japan had received an invitation. It was a time when Japan had only just returned to the international community after the end of the occupation, so it was with anxiety that they participated. There were even voices within the government that said they should not participate, but contrary to expectations, they received a warm welcome. Deputy Representative Shunichi Kase accompanied Representative Takasaki at the Asian-African Conference.
The representatives of each country said, "If Japan had not issued the Greater East Asia Declaration, which made the liberation of Asian peoples the purpose of the war, or if Japan had not made sacrifices and fought for Asia, we would still have been a British colony, a Dutch colony, and a French colony. It is because Japan made great sacrifices and fought bravely for the Asian people that Asia exists today."
The following year, Japan joined the United Nations, and Kase became its first UN ambassador. Regarding this, Kase said, "I want to emphasize the fact that the Asian-African Group enthusiastically supported Japan's membership from start to finish. With the great trust and expectations of Asian and African countries, our country has built today's prosperity after the war."
As secretary to Foreign Minister Shigemitsu, Shunichi Kase participated in the Greater East Asia Conference, which was held in 1943 and invited representatives from Asian countries, and was a diplomat who wrote the original draft of the Greater East Asia Joint Declaration, which was the core of the conference. Kase also wrote the following in his book ("The Last Testimony of a 101-Year-Old Who Changed the Showa Era"):
"The war against the United States was a struggle for self-preservation and self-defense, but it liberated Asia, which had been under Western colonial rule for hundreds of years. Foreign Minister Shigemitsu and I painstakingly drafted the original Greater East Asia Declaration three years after the war began.
On the day of the surrender signing ceremony, we did not say such things to each other because we had a sense of pride in the fact that a world-historical battle had ended and Japan had played the role that had been given to it by the history of mankind. Even though it was true that we had lost, we had never lost mentally. That was the determination we had."
"In our country, after the war, the Greater East Asia Joint Declaration was used primarily as a smokescreen by the military to exploit the occupied territories. It is easy to interpret it that way, but the real meaning was to declare Japan's war aims.
In any case, the Asian countries that gained independence because they fought in Japan's previous war still deeply value the Greater East Asia Joint Declaration today. I personally felt that not only Asians, but also African peoples were truly grateful for the colonial liberation movement advocated by Japan when I attended the Asian-African Conference held in Bandung, Indonesia in 1955 (Showa 30) as a representative of the Japanese government, and when I visited the United Nations as the first UN ambassador.
It is ironic that the Greater East Asia Joint Declaration is disregarded in Japan, but highly regarded in Asia and Africa. "
So, what do you think? There were people who said that they felt sick just looking at a photo of the Greater East Asia Conference, but you can see how little they studied history. These people only studied history from the perspective of Europe and America, China, and the Korean peninsula, and completely missed the perspective of the war for Japan and the war for Asia. Now, next, I would like to introduce the declaration adopted at the Asian-African Conference.
Respect basic human rights and the principles and aims of the UN CharterRespect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of all nationsRecognize the equality of all humankind and the equality of all nations, large and smallDo not interfere in the internal affairs of other nationsRespect the right of independent or collective self-defense under the UN CharterDo not use collective defense for the specific interests of large nations. Also, do not pressure other nations. Do not invade or threaten to invade or use force to undermine the territorial integrity or political independence of other nations. Resolve international disputes by peaceful meansPromote mutual interests and cooperationRespect justice and international obligations
African countries have been trading slaves with the Americas since the mid-1400s. From the early 1800s, they were colonized by partition from the West.
Colonization of Asian countries began earlier, in the early 1500s, and countries such as Malaysia and Singapore were under colonial rule for over 400 years.
As Asian countries were being colonized one after another, and the Western hand was finally reaching out to the Korean Peninsula and China, which are just a stone's throw away from Japan, the Greater East Asia War was fought with the aim of expelling the Western powers that had colonized Asia. In Southeast Asia, which had been under Western rule for hundreds of years, the Japanese rule period lasted only two to five years, but during this period each region of Southeast Asia gained national power, learned how to use weapons, how to fight, how to run a country, etc. from Japan, and after Japan was defeated, fought one war after another for independence.
After Japan withdrew, Asian countries achieved independence,
17 African countries achieved independence all at once in 1960, and 1960 is said to be the year of Africa. And on December 14 of that year, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the "Declaration Granting Independence to Colonies and Peoples." Then, in 1964, the Civil Rights Act was enacted in the United States, and state laws that affirmed racial discrimination were abolished. Then, in 1969, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination came into force at the United Nations.
Do you realize how biased Japan's postwar education was in this way? The long history of oppression and domination of these colored people, and Japan's war aims, were never spoken of in Japan after the war, and in the international community, they are so-called minority reports. And they have not been generalized in the international community. However, these are clear historical facts that have been witnessed by many colored countries. Even though it is called a minority report, the population of the Asian and African countries that participated in the Bandung Conference was said to be about 1.3 billion at the time, and considering that the world population in 1955 was 2.7 billion, it is a fact that was witnessed by about half of the world's population. The reason why this is not generalized is that it is a developing country, insignificant, and there is no need to hear about it.
With this premise, Japan was warmly welcomed when it participated in the Asian-African Conference. These countries say that thanks to Japan they have decided to take back their own countries. Is this also a wrong version of history?
