    My great uncle fought the Japanese and got captured. He was treated like a slave and was forced to help build the Burma railway. He got all the didseases like maleria but none killed him in the war. 30 years after the end of it all he died of an unknown illness that had been killing his liver for years. Really sad.

      @dragon - True. The simple fact is Japan has never (and simply refuses) to fully acknowledge and confront their wartime atrocities. This behavior has its roots in many Japanese's belief that they are somehow racially and culturally different/superior than their mainland neighbors despite the fact that Japan's people and culture came from China and Korea. Thus, from their perspective since the war crimes were committed against those they see as inferior, they don't believe it's necessary for them to fully acknowledge much less truly apologize for their war crimes.

      誰が人種差別国家か?日本は世界に誇れる!アジアのリーダーになるべきです。
      大正8年2月13日、第1次世界大戦後のパリ講和会議国際連盟において、
      日本全権である牧野伸顕は連盟規約に人種差別撤廃を盛り込むことを提案した。
      人種又は国籍如何により法律上あるいは何ら差別を設けざることを約すという
      もの。国際会議において人種差別撤廃を明確に主張した世界で最初の国が
      日本であった。日本の人種差別撤廃案は不採択となったが、日本が世界で
      最初に人種差別撤廃を提案した国となったという歴史的事実は、国際社会や
      日本外交に一定の刻印を残した。日本は日独伊三国同盟後も独国のユダヤ人
      排斥には同調せず、人種差別的な主張と政策には終始否定的・非協力的な
      姿勢を貫き通した。大東亜戦争中の昭和18年に東京で開かれた大東亜会議に
      おける大東亜宣言は、パリ講和会議で不採択になった「人種差別撤廃」を
      高らかに謳っていた。日本は大東亜戦争には敗れたが、戦後、国際連合に
      加盟し安全保障理事会の非常任理事国に初めて当選した際に、
      新興独立国から多くの支持を集めた理由の1つは、人種差別撤廃を世界で
      最初に提案した国という歴史的実績があったからである。
      韓国は、日本がアジアの為に血と汗を流している時に何をしてました?
      日本の保護の下で日本人に甘えて、戦後になって突然豹変し日本人を
      襲撃した卑怯者である。中国はチベット・ウイグル民族を浄化大量虐殺を
      犯した。中国こそ常任理事国に相応しくない!我が祖国美しい国で誇り高き
      日本こそ常任理事国に相応しい。

In fact, if they tried booby-trapping Soviet bodies or leaving disfigured remains of Soviet prisoners in front of the Red Army, the Red Army would respond 10 fold with more brutal reprisals.

      I know I’m super late to this but to answer one of your questions. during ww2 Japan wanted to station troops in Thailand that way it would be easier to invade British Malaya and British Burma. So they sent a message to Thailand basically saying if Thailand didn’t allow Japan to station troops there then they would invade and do it themselves. When Thailand took too long to respond Japan invaded and Thailand agreed to allow troops to be stationed there and became an ally of Japan.

    There was a problem with the constitution of Japan at that time, and nobody had the right to make decisions.
    Tojo did not order a war, and each representative was deliberated and approved by the Emperor.
    The Prime Minister, the Army Minister, and the Navy Minister all wanted to avoid the war, but they didn't want to seem weak to the public, so they were waiting for someone to stop it first.
    However, nobody told to stop, so entered the war.The Army and the Navy competed, puppeting the Emperor and gaining consent, and started their respective wars.
    As in the Samurai era, the Emperor was a puppet and the more powerful army had the power to decide.

    An open letter to those who think we don't need teachers to teach: True educators (teachers, parents and the like) understand how to properly use education video shorts like this one. I am sure that the person or people for "Simple History" understand the importance of research, editing and analysis used in creating these well-made shorts. They can do that, because those are all skills that are meant to be taught and practiced in school. To those who think it's easy to learn through videos alone: Please don't confuse "interesting and short information" as the only factors in how people learn. If there is no follow-up, or extensions as context as these videos do, then these videos are simply just that; informative, but "one-way" animations. The job of a teacher is to give meaning to context and tools to give students for honing skills related to understanding what is being presented to them. In essence, a Teacher should care about kids as they care about their craft and profession. Believe me: I've had seemingly boring teachers as a child as well. But for every boring teacher, there are always educators that make learning fun and meaningful. Trust the process... from a teacher who was also a student like you. Peace. :)
