  • This Podcast about General Ishiwara Kanji, the mastermind behind the Mukden Incident of 1931 and author of the Final War Theory.
    Ishiwara Kanji was a fascinating person and one whose actions changed the entire world. It could be argued Ishiwara Kanji single handedly caused World War Two.
    Ishiwara Kanji is known predominantly for two things, his role in the Mukden Incident and his Final War Theory. Ishiwara Kanji was a member of the Imperial Japanese Army and performed numerous military attaché appointments in countries like China and Germany. His education and nichiren buddhist beliefs led him to develop his Final War Theory, the idea a apocalyptic war was going to happen that would allow Japan to usher in a new world. To prepare for the final war, Ishiwara Kanji argued it was necessary for Japan to acquire natural resources to build up their military and the most appropriate place to acquire these were in Manchuria.
    Ishiwara Kanji sought for Japan to invade Manchuria to acquire her natural resources to build up the Japanese military in preparation for his theorized conflict against the United States. Ironically Ishiwara Kanji did not seek a war with China and actually sought a pan-Asian alliance. Ishiwara Kanji joined the Kwantung Army and grew a cult of followers to enact the Mukden Incident in 1931.

    A masterful video. I always find myself wondering how Japan's expansionist period would have gone if Ishiwara rather than Tojo had become Prime Minister.

      Ishiwara becoming Prime Minister could have been a reality, a real twist of fate this man is to history.

    This looks pretty legit. I can't believe I have to wait 10 minutes....

    If events had gone differently, Ishiwara could have been dismissed or faced a worse fate for insubordination and even criminal disobedience.
