Why everyone focuses on what the Germans did during WWII while ignoring what the Japs did, I will never understand.
Or why it’s never even mentioned that the commies in China and Russia killed 10 times the number of people that the Germans did.
It seems to me that someone has a adgenda to push that demonizing the Germans advances.
Boy, you got that right. The Japs were literally burying people alive in Asia.
I hope those facts are being taught to our kids in the schools. The kids should see photographs of the Chinese people being buried alive by Japs.
The pro-Jap, anti-German biases may be due to the fact that Germans are white.
Excellent point!!
Simple. The Germans filmed their atrocities, we have the images of them embedded into our conscience. The Japanese and Russians were more discreet.
The victims of the Germans had a lot more kin in Hollywood and academia than the victims of the Japanese and Russians.
If you want to read about being a POW of the Japanese, check out “Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption.” It’s the story of Louis Zamperini, a distance runner who was in the Berlin Olympics and had his hand shaken by Hitler. Later as a bombardier on a B-24 in the Pacific, his plane is shot down and he spends a harrowing 47 days adrift on a raft. When he finally reaches land and is captured by the Japanese, that’s when things really get rough for Louis.
