Rebirth Enchanted Xiangjiang

"Rebirth and Enchanted Xiangjiang ()"

"Let Japan contain us?" Lin Qingxia puzzled.

"Well, to be precise, it is to contain us and the Soviet Union." Qiao Feng nodded, while thinking in his heart, a few days later, the main thing will be to contain us in the future, because the big brother was immediately caught by Gorbachev. It's about to disintegrate.

"I still don't understand, why let Japan contain us and the Soviet Union?"

Lin Qingxia’s words made Qiao Feng react from her muttering. He thought about it, sorted out his thoughts, and then said: "Let Japan contain us and the Soviet Union. This is based on ideological considerations and national interests.

Both the Mainland and the Soviet Union are communist countries, while the European and American countries represented by the United States and Britain are capitalist countries. The political thinking of the either-or zero-sum game of European and American countries such as the United States and Britain, since the ideology and political model are different , That is the opponent, the enemy.

Naturally, it cannot be overstated against opponents and enemies.

Therefore, in the face of the so-called threats from the Soviet Union and the mainland government, the United States began to actively seek allies in Asia, including Japan, which bombed their Pearl Harbor enemy.

Japan's strong talents have restrained the Soviet Union and the mainland both economically and militarily.

After the war, in order to win over Japan and make it its ally in order to deal with the communist countries, the United States maintained the political structure of Japan before the war and made many Japanese war criminals escape due punishment.

Take the Tokyo Trial as an example. In the court, a total of 4336 pieces of evidence were accepted, and a total of 419 witnesses appeared in court to testify, and 779 people gave written testimony. It took 2 years and 7 months and 818 court sessions.

After a serious and serious trial, the Far East International Military Tribunal also listed some detailed reasons for the conviction, and finally made a verdict. The verdict has a total of 1213 pages.

What Qiao Feng said are some data from the Tokyo trial that he checked before in preparation for the Jinling Thirteen Hairpins. They are detailed and conclusive.

But because of this, it is even more unacceptable.

Because with so many witnesses, testimonies, and evidence, the Tokyo trial only sentenced seven Class A war criminals to hang.

The nomination list of Class A war criminals is a total of 126 people, but only 28 were designated Class A war criminals, and the number of Class A war criminals who were finally tried was 28, and only seven were sentenced to death by hanging. Most of the other life imprisonment, there are two fixed-term imprisonment, one died of illness and one exempted from prosecution.

This is only Class A war criminals, there are other Class B war criminals, Class C war criminals,

So, how many war criminals should be punished?

Many, many, quite a lot.

The 1945 "Potsdam Proclamation" stipulated that: "Political power is always eradicated"

According to this regulation, post-war Japan purged leaders at all levels from the central to the local level from the political, administrative, economic, educational, and various civil organizations, and prohibited them from holding public office. This time they were purged The number is 86,000, of which tens of thousands of professional soldiers have been purged from public office.

And even if not all of these 86,000 people have reached the point where they need to be tried, at least more than 10,000 people should be punished.

You know, according to incomplete statistics, from August 1945 to May 1947, the Nationalist Government arrested 2,357 Japanese war criminals.

There are war criminals arrested by the Soviet Union, as well as war criminals arrested by Southeast Asian countries such as Indonesia, the Philippines, and Malaysia.

There are too many to be punished.

However, too many people, or apart from a few people who were really punished and deserved their crimes, have escaped sanctions because of the United States.

Japan’s emperor system is hereditary. The "Imperial Constitution of Japan" promulgated in 1889 stipulates that the emperor "as the head of the country, has the power to rule."

The Emperor was the supreme ruler of Japan before the war and the supreme commander of the Japanese army.

At the same time, the emperor also claimed to be a descendant of the ancestral line of the god who created Japan,

If there is no command and commander of the highest power like the emperor, then Japan would not have waged such a war.

From the September 18th Incident in 1931 to the proclamation of the final war edict in 1945, Emperor Hirohito promoted and guided a series of aggressive wars.

It can be said that Emperor Hirohito was Japan's biggest war criminal and the chief culprit in the war of aggression.

After Japan announced its surrender, not only China and Asian countries strongly demanded that Emperor Hirohito be held accountable for the war, but even international public opinion and even some people in Japan felt that the Emperor of Japan was the most responsible person in the criminal war.

However, the United States holds the power of the Tokyo trial, and considering their own political needs, they did not hold the emperor accountable.

Therefore, "the emperor is a symbol of Japan and a symbol of the unity of the Japanese nation" was written into Japan's new constitution, retaining the emperor's original status as hereditary monarch.

The Emperor once again became the backing for the protection of various war criminals, and found support and excuses for the restoration of the extreme right.

It is also well known that Japan used a large number of bacterial chemical weapons during its war of aggression against China.

Unit 731 and Unit 100 used living people to conduct experiments, and more than 3,000 arrested anti-Japanese people eventually became victims of bacterial experiments.

According to incomplete statistics, in the bacterial warfare carried out by the Japanese army, at least 200,000 Chinese people died in the bacterial warfare by the Japanese army.

However, in the international court where war criminals were tried, Japan’s use of chemical weapons was not investigated.

The culprit of Unit 731, Shiro Ishii and others, the United States actually protected them in exchange for "requesting Japanese bacterial weapon test materials", so that these heinous people escaped the trial of the international court.

On December 24, 1948, after the execution of Hideki Tojo and several other war criminals, the United States announced the release of 19 other Class A war criminals and no more trials.

On March 7, 1950, the Supreme Command of the Allied Forces issued Order No. 5, stipulating that all war criminals in custody in Japan should be released before the end of the sentence.

However, after the Tokyo trial, the Allies headed by the United States and Japan once signed the San Francisco Treaty.

Article 11 of this treaty expressly stipulates: "Japan accepts the judgments of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East and the war crimes courts of its allies within or outside Japan, and will enforce the judgments of the courts against Japan currently imprisoned in Japan. National punishment. The right of pardon, commutation and parole of such persons shall not be exercised except by the decision of one government or several governments in each case and recommended by Japan. If the offender is committed by Far Eastern International The military court has ruled that this right shall not be exercised except for the decision of the majority government participating in the court and the recommendation of Japan."

Effective date 1952.

If in accordance with the provisions of the signed treaty, no unilateral government has the right to pardon, commute or release any prisoner, unless the prisoner only commits crimes in this country.

Therefore, after the contract comes into effect, the United States has no right to unilaterally pardon, commute or release any prisoner.

However, the International Military Tribunal for the Far East was established on the basis of a special declaration by MacArthur, the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces. From the Tokyo trial to the birth of the "Cold War" policy, the United States has always wanted to use the special position they occupied separately to implement its own political intentions.

As a result, with the defeat of the National Party in the interior and the emergence of the two major camps in the east and west of the world, the United States, in order to turn Japan into a bridgehead and breakwater against communism, changed from the initial restraint to the subsequent support.

The United States has undergone a change in its strategic policy. Before the treaty took effect, MacArthur, the Allied Commander-in-Chief, issued the so-called "war criminal parole" order. As a result, Kishi Nobusuke and other Class A war criminals were released and reduced their sentences, and later revoked various "grabbings". These war criminals and those who had been purged once again assumed public office.

Take the Class A war criminal Kishi Shinsuke as an example. Soon after he was released from prison, he organized and established Japan's largest conservative party, the "Liberal Democratic Party".When Shinsuke Kishi was the prime minister of the cabinet, his cabinet members "from ministers to chiefs, the number of people who have been purged has reached about half."

In his memoirs, Kishi Nobukai proudly said: "I started the Liberal Democratic Party. The destiny of Japan can only be controlled by the Liberal Democratic Party."

From his words, we can see why it is so rampant in Japan.

This group of war criminals and their descendants have become the core figures of today's Japanese politics.

As the United States seeks the friendship and loyalty of its former enemy Japan, it will naturally not mention the Nanjing Massacre, and even help Japan cover it up.

Not only that

After the war, Japan became an economic power with the support of the United States, and used a lot of money to launch an offensive against all classes in the United States. It decorated Japan as a free, democratic and peace-loving country, but Japan invaded Asia during World War II. The history of various countries avoids talking about it, and instead describes Japan as a victim of World War II, beautifying Japan's aggression against these countries as saving these countries.

Some so-called historical experts who study China or Asia in the United States actually speak for Japan with a large amount of money from Japan.

In American universities, some research funds for the history of China and Japan also come from Japan.

Therefore, in the United States, there are few books describing the Nanjing Massacre, and even the Sino-Japanese War.

And even if there is, it is often difficult to remain objective.

The United States is helping the abuser in an attempt to obliterate people's memory of the Nanjing Massacre and deprive the victims of their due status in history.

There is a line in the Dream Travels:. There are three deaths in a person’s life. The first time is a biological death; the second time is when the society announces your death; the third time is the last person who remembers you to leave the world.

When you finish these three steps, you will be completely forgotten by the world.

But as Nobel Peace Prize winner Eli Wiesel warned: forgetting the massacre is a second massacre.

As a Chinese, how can the Nanjing Massacre world be completely forgotten.

Not only do we have to remember ourselves, we have to have the whole world know, all remember, and always remember.

I remember the countless crimes that Japan has committed.

It's like remembering the crimes committed against the Jews.

"Then what name are you going to give this book, also called Jinling Thirteen Hairpins?" Lin Qingxia asked softly after Qiao Feng finished speaking with anger.

"The story of the Jinling thirteen hairpins is an artistic creation based on real historical facts. For the Nanjing Massacre, the bloody smell in the movie has been faded a lot, and it is not as true as the real case. If you say Jinling thirteen hairpins It’s just a single point, so I want to write an intertwined aspect of hundreds of thousands of points. The real side of the Nanjing Massacre. And, what I want is to awaken the world’s memory of the Nanjing Massacre. So, the book’s The name I want to call the Nanjing Massacre--the forgotten catastrophe of World War II."

Finally, Qiao Feng in his heart silently added: "Author: Iris Chang."
