Fujiwara Rock City, mother of Indian independence
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.
Fujiwara who did not discriminate against Indians
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.
Towards the liberation of India
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.
Indian independence and Japan
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.
failure of the Pearl Harbor at 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.
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.
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.
The Greater East Asia War and the spirit of Kazuu Hakko have been erased from history Did Japan just invade?
Greater East Asia War erased from history
Kazuu Hakko is the spirit of world peace
Kazuu Hakko disappeared
Japanese who saved Jews
A time when ethnic discrimination was common
World War II included the European War, the Greater East Asia War, and the Pacific War. GHQ banned the official use of the words Greater East Asia War and Hakko Ichiu.
In Europe, Nazi Germany invaded, and the Pacific War was a war between Japan and the United States, but what happened in Asia has been omitted. There are also stories of the Sino-Japanese War, the Manchurian Incident, and the enslavement of the Korean Peninsula, which never happened.
Hakko Ichiu is the spirit advocated by Japan during the Greater East Asia War, and although it is a worldview centered on the Emperor that is a departure from current values, the essence is a world in which the world respects each other without discrimination of ethnic groups. It means to make.
This was the idea of Greater East Asia in confronting Western colonies. GHQ has historically erased the truth underlying these words and ideas. The intention is clear, Japan's war is simply a war of aggression, and the story is that America stopped it.
Hitoshi Imamura, who fought for the liberation of Indonesia, rejected the coercive policy theory as clearly going against the spirit of Kazuu Hakko, and did not change his conciliatory policy.
Kiichiro Higuchi, who rescued Jews fleeing Nazi persecution, also carried out his duties based on the spirit of Kazuu Hakko. The assimilation policy on the Korean Peninsula and Taiwan is based on Kazuu Hakko's idea that once people become part of the same nation, they will be treated as people without distinction.
It is difficult to say whether Kazuu Hakko's spirit is correct in modern times from the perspective of people's right to self-determination, but the world at that time was full of ethnic discrimination, and the world economy was built on this premise, and the dominant ethnic group was divided into It was a time when people were divided into dominant ethnic groups.
Although there is no such thing as a good war, Japan at the time did not invade Asia just to plunder it. Think about why it was removed from history.
