The slaughter of civilians is appalling. I could go on for pages telling of cases of rape and brutality almost beyond belief. Two bayoneted corpses are the only survivors of seven street cleaners who were sitting in their headquarters when Japanese soldiers came in without warning or reason and killed five of their number and wounded the two that found their way to the hospital. Let me recount some instances occurring in the last two days.
Last night the house of one of the Chinese staff members of the university was broken into and two of the women, his relatives, were raped. Two girls, about 16, were raped to death in one of the refugee camps. In the University Middle School where there are 8,000 people the Japs came in ten times last night, over the wall, stole food, clothing, and raped until they were satisfied. They bayoneted one little boy of eight who [had] five bayonet wounds including one that penetrated his stomach, a portion of omentum was outside the abdomen.
The contest to kill 100 people using a sword (百人斬り競争, hyakunin-giri kyōsō) was a contest between Toshiaki Mukai and Tsuyoshi Noda, two Japanese Army officers, which took place during the Nanking Massacre. The goal of the contest was to see who could kill 100 people the fastest while using a sword.
True. Hii ni sanitation; Until the lion learns how to write, every story will glorify the hunter.
Na hapa ndio I have issues with our Africa Bonobos. Our stories are always told by the whites/ Colonisers. BBC/ CCN / Sky News/ CCTV kazi nikuchafua and twist African news and stories.
If it’s better surrendering to the Nazis than the Japs, does it not mean the Japs were a far worse prospect for a POW? The Nazis are renowned for their brutality, so if they’re a better option then the alternative must be like two hells
Ukishikwa na Japs as a POW mlikua mnazikwa kwa ground up to your neck.Halafu the other POWs are forced to watch as petrol is doused on your head and a fire is lit.They will be forced to watch as you blabber incoherently in pain as fire consumes your head into a silent black mass of soot.
Japanese are the meanest of the eastern people and one of the meanest in the world. this is not to say that mongolians and chinese are any better. In the edo period, the japanese had a strictly stratified society consisting of socio-economic groups that didnt mix and they were very mean to each other. they were just humbled by their defeat in wwII otherwise they would be killing left right and center. nothing broke the japanese spirit than being governed with an iron hand by an american general with zero regard for their samurai bullcrap. Out of ignorance, they had thought themselves the mightiest people for a long time.
