Japan's biggest failure in the Pacific War was the not of landing operations in the Pearl Harbor attacks.If Japan were to take over Hawaii, it would be completely the opposite and could attack the U.S. mainland with Hawaii.On the contrary, the United States, based in Hawaii, acquired Guam, Saipan and Palau after the Battle of Midway, enabling mainland attacks on Japan.Japan and the United States are too far away, and Hawaii is an important base and fueling point.
In fact, even in the United States, if Hawaii had been taken by Japan, the United States would have to prepare for peace at that time.Some argue that Japan's landing ships and warships at that time could have carried out landing operations, but if so, Pearl Harbor should have been attacked after preparation for landing operations.Yamamoto Isoroku's blunder.

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.
Is Korea a spokesperson for Asia?impossible! The Grand East Asian Conference on Independence and Co - prosperity in Asia.
The Great East Asian Conference was held on November 5, 1943.It was the first international conference in which Japan was the leader of a country that expelled white forces and leaders of color gathered.In other words, countries of color had no concept of alliance and fighting together.The Great East Asian Conference discussed policies for post-war independence.China, South Korea, and North Korea are the only countries that Japan claims to have invaded Asian countries.Since China actually fought the Sino-Japanese War, what is South Korea and North Korea?Other Asian countries say they were able to become independent thanks to Japan.
The purpose of the Great East Asian War is to exclude white colonial policies from Asia and maintain independence and co-prosperity among Asian countries.The participants of the Great East Asia Conference are as follows.
Great East Asia Conference Participant Japan: Prime Minister Hideki Tojo
Republic of China: President Wang Zhaoming
Manchuria: Prime Minister Jang Kyung-hye
Republic of the Philippines: President Jose Laurel
Burma: Prime Minister Bar Mow
Kingdom of Thailand: Prince Wangwita Yacon
India: Free India Provisional Head of Government: Chandra Bose
Daedong-A DeclarationDaedong-A countries will work together to ensure stability and build a mutually beneficial order based on ethics.
The countries of Greater East Asia respect each other's independence, achieve mutual aid and friendship, and establish a friendly relationship with Greater East Asia.
The countries of Greater East Asia respect each other's traditions, promote creativity of each nation, and enhance the culture of Greater East Asia.
The Greater East Asian countries will work closely together to promote economic development and promote the prosperity of Greater East Asia.
Daitoa countries contribute to the future of the world by strengthening their friendship with all countries, eliminating racism, exchanging cultures widely, and opening up resources.
Unfortunately, Korea is not a spokesperson for Asia.The Great East Asia Conference is a gathering of Asian leaders to pledge independence and co-prosperity.After the war, Asian countries said they were able to become independent thanks to Japan.That's the truth.
Korea pretends to be an Asian spokesperson, but it is clear that Korea's claims do not represent Asian countries.
Emperor Showa's words saved Japan from a postwar food crisis that caused 10 million people to starve to death - MacArthur was moved
At a dinner hosted by former President Ford during his first state visit to the United States, Emperor Showa stated that he had longed to express his gratitude to the people of Japan in person. What does this mean? In 1945, the Pacific War ended, but by December, the year the war ended, Japan was in an extreme food shortage. As the year turned and the following year came, it was whispered that "10 million people will starve to death." Emperor Showa told Kenzo Matsumura, the Minister of Education, the following:
"It is said that if the deterioration of food supplies continues, many people will starve to death, but I cannot bear the idea of ??even more people starving to death, especially to our people who have suffered so much during the war.""The government has requested the United States to provide food, but it seems that the United States will not agree to this, but when you think about it, we have nothing to offer in return for food, so it is unavoidable. ""And so, I have heard that among the Imperial possessions there are a considerable number of items that are of international value. I have therefore ordered the director of the Imperial Museum to investigate and prepare a catalogue, which is shown here."I would like to give these to America as compensation, in exchange for food, to help stave off hunger for at least one day. I ask that you see to it.""
Matsumura was perplexed, but when he conveyed Emperor Showa's feelings to General MacArthur and presented him with a list of the Emperor's possessions, General MacArthur, who had already been touched by the Emperor's words in their first meeting, "I want you to help the people no matter what happens to me," said the following. "I understand very well what the Emperor is thinking, but neither I nor the United States can take away the Imperial possessions and provide food in return, even though it is a very kind request.""I would like to return this list to His Majesty. However, I fully understand the Emperor's feelings about the people. As long as I am in my current position, I will never allow any Japanese people to starve to death. I will definitely take measures to import food from the United States. I would like to ask His Majesty to rest assured." After returning the list, I told him that I would take measures to provide food aid from the United States.
GHQ stands for General Headquarters of the Supreme Commander for the Allied Powers, and the GHQ headquarters was established in a building that was formerly the Daiichi Seimei Building in Yurakucho, Tokyo. The end of the war was declared on August 15th with the acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration, and the GHQ headquarters was established on September 15th. Emperor Showa visited MacArthur at the United States Embassy in Japan on September 27th. At this time, MacArthur thought that Emperor Showa had come to beg for his life or to discuss defection. However, it is well known that Emperor Showa said that he didn't care what happened to him and asked MacArthur to help the people, which surprised MacArthur greatly. It is said that Emperor Showa's words had a great influence on the GHQ's later occupation governance policy. Emperor Showa later moved MacArthur's heart again, and the crisis of many Japanese people dying of starvation was averted.
GHQ had the role of investigating and verifying the history, causes, and purposes of Japan's war, as well as implementing occupation policies. Many people who were found to be war criminals in the Tokyo Trials served their sentences, and Japan was returned to the international community when the San Francisco Peace Treaty, signed on September 8, 1951, was issued the following year. On May 3 of the same year, MacArthur testified before the US Senate Joint Committee on Armed Services and Foreign Relations that Japan's purpose in starting the war was mostly for security. In other words, it was a war of self-defense.
It is known that the Potsdam Declaration originally included a provision to preserve the Emperor's status, but this was later deleted. At one point, America hoped for the Soviet Union to enter the war, but after Roosevelt's death, Truman, who would later become president, learned of the existence of the atomic bomb research, which was top secret, and it is said that he reworked the document to one that would not allow Japan to surrender. The preservation of the Emperor's status and the maintenance of the national polity were areas of concern for Japan, and America was well aware of this, so initially included the preservation of the Emperor's status. After that, atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the Emperor decided to accept the Potsdam Declaration. At this point, there was no guarantee that his life would be protected.
On September 26, 1971, Emperor Showa and Empress Showa stopped at Anchorage Airport in Alaska on a Japan Airlines plane to refuel during an official visit to Europe. This was Emperor Showa's first overseas trip after ascending to the throne, and the first place in history where an Emperor landed on foreign soil was Alaska in the United States. At that time, President Richard Nixon and his wife Patricia Nixon welcomed the Emperor and Empress to the runway. After the welcome speech and reply speech were exchanged in the hangar, the meeting took place at the residence of the Alaska District Commander, which was designated as a temporary guest house. This was the first meeting between an emperor and a US head of state, even before the war.
In 1975, Emperor Showa was invited by former President Ford as a state guest to the White House, and was there as a formal visitor to the US. Prior to this, the first state visit to Japan by a US president was made by former President Ford from November 18 to 22, 1974, the year before Emperor Showa's visit to the US. American public opinion had little interest in the visit of the Japanese emperor to the US, and it was never reported, but every American imagined that Emperor Showa would naturally harbor resentment towards the US. And at the White House dinner, the emperor gave the following speech:
"I have longed to visit your country for many years, and if that visit were to come true, I would like to convey the following to your people. That is, I would like to personally express my gratitude to your people for the warm kindness and assistance you extended to our country for the reconstruction immediately after that unfortunate war, which I deeply regret," he said. He then concluded by saying, "More than half of the people in both countries do not know about the last war. However, even if times change in the future, I believe that the generosity and goodwill of your people will be passed down among the Japanese people for a long time." The hall erupted in applause. In other words, he conveyed to the American people at this first state visit dinner as a sign of his gratitude for the time when he presented the Imperial family's gifts and requested food aid from MacArthur.
After that, this story was quickly spread across the United States, and the Japanese Emperor's visit to the United States was reported on the front page of newspapers for six consecutive days. This event took place 30 years after the end of the war.
Emperor Showa was born on April 29, 1901, and in 1941, Japan entered the Great War with the declaration of war. Even after the defeat, Japan experienced high economic growth during the Showa era, becoming the second largest economic power in the world. With the death of Emperor Showa on January 7, 1989, the Showa era was succeeded by the Heisei era.
The Meiji era began with the Boshin War, and after the Sino-Japanese and Russo-Japanese wars, Japan annexed Korea. During the Taisho era, Japan participated in World War I, and as a permanent member of the League of Nations, it sat at the center of the world table. The Showa era was the longest reign of an emperor, lasting 62 years, and it can be said to have been a turbulent era that saw the Great War, high economic growth, and the country's rise to become an economic superpower.
Two Japanese in the Golden Book of Israeli Scripture.
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 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.
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.
Hong Si - yeon is a former Japanese Army lieutenant general who continued to use his Korean name - forcing him to change his name to Mr. So is a blatant lie.
Japanese soldiers from the Korean Peninsula
Japanese soldier who gave his Korean name
Legal death in the Philippines
``There have been many people who have died falsely since ancient times, and he doesn't want me to join them.''``Even if you try to dwell on it, you'll end up complaining and thinking you're guilty of losing the war.''
This is the death poem composed by Hong Siyung. He is a native of Gyeonggi Province who served in the Japanese army and rose to the rank of lieutenant general, the highest rank for a Korean.
Although he was intelligent and an excellent soldier, he did not declare his name change and took the name of the Korean peninsula (if he did not declare his name change, he would be registered with his original name).
South Korea claims that the Korean name was taken away from Japan by changing the So family name, but this is a complete lie. Changing your name is a self-reporting system and is not mandatory. If it was forced, then how could that person who disobeyed become a lieutenant general in the army with his Korean name?
Hong Si-yeon took a different path from his friends, telling the anti-Japanese forces on the Korean peninsula, ``Raising now will not lead to the restoration of Korea's independence, and that they should spend some time studying and developing their skills before fighting.''
Hong Si-yeon was assigned to the Philippines, where the war ended. After the war ended, he was tried as a war criminal and sentenced to death. There is not the slightest hint of resentment toward Japan or its annexation in his final words as he bids farewell to this world.
Hong Si-hyeong is currently enshrined at Yasukuni Shrine. Even if he returned to South Korea, he would be treated as a criminal for being pro-Japanese and his grave would be dug up many times, so it would be better if he was enshrined in Japan forever.
