Not. Sloppy. The English imposing their own fantasies on the world, as usual. The Japanese colonies in China discussed here were all German colonies given to them by the Versailles settlement of WWI. This whole period of Japanese crimes was simply them carrying out what they had learned from the European powers a generation earlier.
I worked for DOD-Navy in the Philippines. In 1987 a friend of mine asked me to go with him to Mariveles City at the tip of the Bataan peninsula to visit relatives. We drove about 2 miles and were stopped by one of the several Revolutionary groups around Luzon and this kinda freaked me out. My friend told me to chill and asked me for $7.00, I gave it to him and he paid the guard with the gun and he slapped a blue sticker on my windshield for safe passage. In 1990-1991 there were two Airmen from Clark Field that were executed in a back alley of a bar and that shut all bases down for 35 days. A couple of months later a military convoy escorting DOD civilians home was attacked and two were killed. This shut all bases down for 53 days. The reason I left was because Mt. Pinatubo blew up and we were hit 2 days later by a super typhoon that sucked all of the ash going east right into our area. There was 2.5 feet of sand with 2 feet of water on top of it. Subic Bay had only one 2 lane road that went to Manilla & Clark Air Base. It took 2 weeks to clear the road, we were eating MRIs because of lack of food. The ash had knocked out the power on base two weeks earlier and all of the frozen food rotted. I took the last aircraft carrier out, USS Abraham Lincoln, to Cebu and then a C-141 to Guam. At that point we were free to take any flight we wanted to go home. What a trip.
The same thing happened to me on New Britain in New Guinea in 2007. We were in a car driving from Rabaul to Kokopo when we got stopped by a group of locals collecting road fees. The road runs through the ancestral lands of their family or so they said. We had to pay to cross. It was like $10.00. At least they didn't shoot us. I was there to go scuba diving. I was in the Philippines in 2010, again scuba diving. We went from Manila to Batangas to catch a water taxi over to Sabang on Mindoro. We were in a small bus. Nothing happened. But to your point, when you go out to the distant ends of the world, you never know. Later on the same Philippines trip we flew over to Puerto Princessa on Palawan to catch a dive trip out to the Sulu Sea for a week. The Muslim terrorist group Abu Sayyaf, had raided the town a few years before and took some American hostages. We hopped over there on Cebu Airlines, only to find out later they were on the do not fly list by the FAA due to poor upkeep of their planes. Great. We lived.
02:50 why do people keep saying pearl harbour was the first attack in the pacific. Malaya was the first to be attacked by Japan. People keep forgetting about the international date line. Please get it right.
Historically speaking, England did the same thing as an island nation with limited self resources, over all the earth. That is why the term, “The Sun Never Sets On The British Empire” came into being.
The script writer definitely has east and west reversed. Midway is west of Hawaii, not east, and the Solomons are northeast of Australia, not northwest. Good video otherwise.
Nippon’s “Golden Age” was NOT a time of peace & internal cooperation! There were countless numbers of clan wars between regional Samurai leaders, Shoguns, loyal to & against the Emperors. It is commonly referred to as the Sengoku Jidai.
The British arrived not long after Perry, altough you have a British accent I think this is a US production. The Brtish also had a treaty with the Japanese, willfully ommitted . In 1902 the Japanese also signed a specific treaty with the British until 1922, notice they drive on the same side of the road as the British?

Another of these Schtalin tales. Aren't they ever going to do one about that Russian guy, Stalin? And Konoy is fun, but what about the Japanese leader, Konoe? We're "Great" Britain. We get to tell you what your names are and where you live. Feh!
You don’t believe that WW2 happened? Even the adversaries in WW2, the Soviets and neutral countries agree it happened and it was all Hitler’s fault, except for some fault is bc of Mussolini and Japan.
The Germans invented a lot of our words, it’s us that changed the pronunciation of their words, not them of our words. You should learn history first, before you go around looking like an ignorant fool.
@@flashgordon6670 Ok.. made me chuckle.. when I first recorded SHT 20 years ago.. who would have thought it could disturb so many, 2 decades later.. a GOOD CALL at the time it seems. .and you're right.. it was def. SHT prior.. Cheers.. Liam Dale
Thank you for this very informative documentary - well put together.
We're glad you enjoyed the documentary. There are 11 more in this series to watch. We hope you enjoy them just as much

Wonderful Pacific war documentary. Thank you. Subscribed
Excellent!!!
Nice documentary I enjoyed it
"...often punishing those who ventured ashore with death. All was well."
Ouch.
They didn't use B-29s for the Doolittle raid. The bomber hadn't been produced at that stage of the war.
Yeah.. I agree.. our scripting error! Cheers.. Liam Dale
02:50 why do people keep saying pearl harbour was the first attack in the pacific. Malaya was the first to be attacked by Japan. People keep forgetting about the international date line. Please get it right.
So you’re saying that the Japs travelled through time a day? This means that Time Travel is possible, go collect your Nobel prize Einstein.
Historically speaking, England did the same thing as an island nation with limited self resources, over all the earth. That is why the term, “The Sun Never Sets On The British Empire” came into being.
Good one.. this phrase originated in the 1820s I think.. Thanks for watching.. Liam Dale
well done I kind of knew how Japan started with China but that was clear thank you
What a very real and Personal lesson the Japanese learned to not F o o K with the United States 🇺🇸 of America.
Pearl Harbor attack was big mistake.
The bigger mistake for the Japs was not landing at Hawaii, hunting down the 2 carriers in the Pacific and not taking the oil stores.
The script writer definitely has east and west reversed. Midway is west of Hawaii, not east, and the Solomons are northeast of Australia, not northwest. Good video otherwise.
Did they? Depends where you are when you wrote it.. ;-) Cheers.. Liam Dale

He also wilfully omitted the battles at Marianas, Iwo Jima and Okinawa, doesn’t that make him anti American, by your genius logic?
@@flashgordon6670 My logic is in keeping withing the context, if you wish to go outside and bark they will shoot you for having rabies.
Certainly, their were NO B-29s in the Tokio Raid.
“The Japanese often killed anyone who ventured ashore. All was well.” 😂
B29s for Doolittle Raid is being lazy.
Did I say 29s? Script error or my voice mess up.... I'm sure it was 25s.. Cheers.. Liam Dale
B-25B
B29 couldn't fly off carrier's they were B25
@@LIAMDALEAUDIOBOOKSyou clearly said B25 every time. I think they are referring to the film footage at 45:50 being B29s not B25s.

It's AXIS not AXES. Regards. England, January, 2025.
Anglo American is not Great Britain American it's England America which is a derogatory term to the Scots Welsh and Irish

And Konoy is fun, but what about the Japanese leader, Konoe?
