You know how bad it is when you make killing (murdering innocent civilians) into merely a game.

Japanese army practiced the principles of what they called “Three Clean”, by killing all, burning all and robbing all. And clearly they omitted the part of what they did to women—raping all.

The Nanjing Massacre can easily be topped as one of the greatest atrocities to humanity.

The Rape of Nanking is nothing but a true story on the literal sense and mental sense. Women, young to 5 or 6 years old, old to 60 years old, were dragged outside of their houses and raped in front of Japanese soldiers. None of them escaped the fate of being raped, and instantly killed afterwards.

There were also details of how these women were raped, and many of them died in the process of raping because how Japanese treated humans as mere toys. They mutilated, disfigured and maimed easily women's naked bodies in ways whichever pleased them.

Japanese officials turned the killing to a mad game, dedicating on which one could score the best by killing the most and the fastest, until they reached that 100 kills mark in a single day.

Nanjing Massacre not only reveals the maddest and the most hideous and abhorrent side of what humans can do to their own kind, but also tells us that peace is precious and we should all cherish it.

The Japanese were worse than the Nazis and Soviets combined. Didnt mention looting, cannibalism and many other atrocities, not to mention war crimes like using biological agents and poisons. This was entirely in character for the Japanese - maximum barbaric cruelty so their enemies will fear them. S…
Manila massacre - Wikipedia Manila massacre - Wikipedia This says over 100,000 but other historians say 100,000–500,000 civilians died. There are many others. Japanese Imperial Army, Marines and Navy were judged responsible for mass atrocities including mass beheadings, rapes and cannibalism. These w…
Ohooo Lord
How could this happen when only 20 thousands soldiers and citizen there.
And yet the US Military killed somewhere between 900,000 to 1.4 Million japanese CIVILIANS in the span of 100 days when they firebombed Tokyo in the summer of 1944—the highest number of non combatant deaths in the history of military campaigns. Japan and Germany weren’t alone in their savagery. Ther…

This argument was tried in the Nuremberg trials, my dude, by the SS. It didn't work. Intent matters. Impaling babies and raping women to death is very different from dropping bombs.

And some of these beasts may still be alive and well.

Dude you need to watch Tantura documentary, that reveals the worst kind of monsters

And the Japanese said none of this happened…Photos and film footage everywhere for them to see.

Is there a film footage of this atrocities? That must be the worst gore horror snuf film ever produced. 😢

There is a book named Rape of Nanjing, and the author commit suicide shortly after the publication due to depression from doing all the research.

I could not even imagine that, a lot of Indonesian women also got rapped during their occupation in Indonesia 🇮🇩 three years only but the brutality they bought was a horror action human can ever had

Yes I met a woman friend of my mothers who had been a prisoner of the Japanese in Indonesia. She was terribly mentally damaged

Indonesian were official Japanese allied, but Chinese were official Japanese enemy.

Terje Haugnes
No Indonesa was not Japanese allied. Indonesi did not exit but was a dutch colony until after the war.
Iris Chang wrote a book about the Rape of Nanking. Several images of 2 soldiers were shown in a contest to see who could behead the most people. They were smiling with huge grins as their pictures were being taken. I cried after reading that book. I've got no urge to travel to Japan. I keep remember…
The atrocities documented in Iris Chang's book are undeniably horrific, but it's important to recognize that individuals and cultures evolve over time. Visiting Japan today can offer insights into its rich culture, technological advancements, and peaceful society, which are distinct from its wartime…

But Japan has so far failed to acknowledge this history in a positive way, offering no formal apology, and has made occasional visits to the Yasukuni Shrine, where Class-A war criminals are honored

they also sport term wording in the Japanese news paper, like contest extension.
