I’m a Japanese student interested in this topic.Thank you for this informative video. I feel ashamed that this remains a contested issue in Japan. Deniers who are in power in Japan are abhorrent to me. I’d like to visit the museum myself.

You shouldn’t be ashamed at a ccp fabrication. Chinese killed their own and framed the japanese. It’s obvious bcos Mao ze dong killed 80 million of his own, not to mention Tianamen

The Chinese are the yellow peril to the West, so its no surprise that little of it is taught in schools and not a word is mentioned about how this is being taught in Japanese schools.

Thank you for making a video about the massacre. Paying tribute to a massacre that is often downplayed or forgotten by the rest of the world. This part of history still hurts for a lot of the Chinese people to this day. My great great grandmother was from Guangzhou (Southern China), and she was gang raped and burned to death in her house by the Japanese soldiers. My young grandmother and her mom had no choice but to escape from the scene. My great great grandmother was pleading them to go on without her. The hurt will never be eased. If only one day we can get an official apology and acknowledgment from Japan. It is awful what war can do to humanity.

Thanks for the video. As a Chinese from Hong Kong living in the US for 35 year. I had the hatred of Japanese because of World War II for a very long time, however, as I am getting older I found myself able to distinguish between the old Japanese Empire and the new Japan. I visited Tokyo last year and I enjoyed it so much that I am going back next March, I plan to take a quick trip to Hiroshima and visit the Peace Museum. I do plan to visit Nanjing in the future and visit the memorial hall. Again thanks for the posting the video and raise the awareness of this event. Let's hope the history will not repeat!

Thank you sharing this piece of history I never had heard off. There are 2 places in my travels that I have visited that I will never forget, testimonials to the atrocities we as humans are capable of inflicting on each other, like this memorial. I think it is so important to include these sites on a an itinerary. It is part of history and the best way to not repeat it is through education.

Visiting Memorial hall does not prove what you saw was correct. You believe or not, many of them are fabricated. It is a more political device to oppress Japan. I wish you could have a bit open mined. Nanking massacre was not true. Next time, please visit nuke memorial nuke bomb Hiroshima. It is a sad and important place.

Motoko Cheng How COULD you even incite that the Nanking Massacre was fabricated, did you even VISIT THE SITE ITSELF and see the hundred thousand skulls and skeletal remains left behind. Why do you think that the Hiroshima memorial is real while this is not? Get your brainwashed mind out and travel to other southeast Asian countries which were also invaded during WW2, visit their memorial halls, is this the evidence you need? Stop spreading lies and your own government's cover-up stories of history.

What the Japanese did to China can NEVER be forgotten! You see, for most people, it's just some old historical documentaries, records, photos, etc. But, it's really different when you PERSONALLY KNEW someone who was a victim that suffered from the Japanese invasion of China, continuously, even decades after the invasion was over! I am talking about my DAD! He died in 1995, at age 60. He was just a small child when the Japanese invaded China. For ALL of his life, he NEVER spoke to any of his family members, not even me (his oldest son), about the HORRIFIC SHIT the Japanese did to his village. When people are REALLY TRAUMATIZED by what they saw, they will NEVER TALK ABOUT IT AGAIN!...Like my dad. However, more than 20 years after his death, I finally found out EVERYTHING that happened to him as a child during the Japanese invasion. HORRIFIC, HORRIFIC, more HORRIFIC than I could ever imagine! How dare some Japanese people DENY this as never even happened!!! This happened a LONG time ago, but it remains very relevant today as you look at all the ugly greed and turmoils of war that happens non-stop in some countries. All the people who were murdered by the Japanese DESERVE to be remembered, regardless of statistical accuracy! Of all the stars I see at night in the sky, the one that shines the BRIGHTEST will always remind me of my father.

According to the holocaust museum, only their event is 100% documented, so that's why only Holocaust denial or questioning should be considered illegal in the world. That's why Nanking or Armenian genocide researchers can question or deny it. I think the Nanking museum should have the right to sue the Holocaust museum for this statement. I believe either all or no atrocity should be transparent and to be questioned.

At the time of the Nanjing Massacre, there was almost no infrastructure when the Japanese troops entered Nanjing. In other words, most of the residents of Nanjing (population of 1 million or more) have already evacuated from Nanjing. The lack of infrastructure is the decisive reason why there were no Nanjing residents. Nanjing is a big city that requires 550,000 people including 250,000 survivors, assuming that the number of people slaughtered is 300,000. Even if there was a Japanese bombing, there should be a considerable amount of debris. But there is nothing in the video. Compare it with the city of Shanghai and Chongqing.

Even if there was a Japanese bombing, there should be a considerable amount of debris. But there is nothing in the video. Compare it with the city of Shanghai and Chongqing. Nanjing Civilian Massacre (December 1937-January-February 1938) At the time of the Japanese army's entry into Nanjing in December 1937, a total of 200 correspondents were dispatched to Nanjing, including about 80 Asahi Shimbun, about 70 Tokyo Nichi Nichi Shimbun (currently Mainichi) newspaper, and about 50 Domei Tsushin. It is about. The post-war Nanjing War Crimes Tribunal (August 1946) is said to be the first source of 300,000 victims of the Nanjing Massacre. (*) At that time, Chiang Kai-shek's Kuomintang was provided with weapons and military guidance with the support of Nazi Germany, but the high-performance Czech-made weapons provided by Germany plagued the Japanese army. Therefore, Japan tried to stop Germany's support for China by connecting with Germany. So the German military advisory group advised to get US support. Chiang Kai-shek made an external promotion in China for the Japanese army because of barbarism as a way to appeal for the help of POOR CHINA in order to obtain the support of the US President and the American people. This was brought to the Tokyo Tribunal as a Nanjing civilian massacre case and became generally known after the war. This promotional work continued many times after the Nanjing Massacre (December 1937), but was discovered by European newspaper reporters. For example, Xuzhou capture war (April-June 1938), Chiang Kai-shek bombing of the Yellow River embankment (June 1938, hundreds of thousands of victims, Japanese troops rescued Chinese refugees and provided food), Wuhan capture battle, Guangdong capture (June-October 1938), Chiang Kai-shek bombing of Yangtze River embankment (September 23, 1938 downstream of Takeana Town), Chiang Kai-shek fire of Changsha (city with population 500,000) (1938) It is said that the advance of the Japanese army was stopped at midnight in November, 1938), the bombing of Chongqing (December 1938 to September 1941), etc. Complained of China's plight caused by. Bombing of Chongqing (December 1938-September 1941) Chiang Kai-shek built a munitions factory in the basement of the city, and the Japanese army bombed the factory. International law distinguishes between military and civilian facilities and prohibits bombing of private facilities, but in this case, the US media dispatched to Chongqing did not matter. Time's photo magazine Life and others have reported the bombing of Chongqing, and there have been protests in the United States such as the disposal of Japanese products. Naturally, it was a major concern that should be taken up in the Tokyo Tribunal. Chiang Kai-shek decided to relocate the capital Nanjing to Chongqing during the Second Shanghai Incident of 1937.8, and before the Japanese troops entered Nanjing on 1937.12, Nanjing citizens (poor people and prostitutes (**)) It was excluded. Therefore, about 200,000 people were left in Nanjing), and the infrastructure such as factories was carried to Chongqing by ship, railroad, or on foot. In other words, the above series of Poor China promotions was also a "time-earning" to operate a munitions factory in Chongqing. Therefore, although the capital Nanjing is a city of 1 million people, there was almost no infrastructure when the Japanese troops rushed into the Nanjing Massacre. (***) US journalist Edgar Snow points out that "not just from the air, it is essential for ground troops to enter Chongqing." According to The Battle of China (1944), Chiang Kai-shek planned to abandon Nanjing as the capital and make Chongqing the new capital during the Shanghai Incident (1937.8). (****) Those left behind are poor and do not have anything, so they cannot be looted by Japanese soldiers. Also, because they are filthy, if a soldier suffers from fleas, lice, or venereal diseases, they will spread throughout the unit and generally cannot be raped. On the other hand, there are soldiers of the National Party Army who are paid and low-ranking soldiers who are not paid, and low-ranking soldiers who are not paid have to procure themselves in the storage area and break into farmers etc. They robbed groceries and other items and raped them for sexual treatment. They killed him if he went against it. The Japanese army, who bought food for this purpose and paid for it, was welcomed, and some Chinese acted as a dewdrop for the Chiang Kai-shek army. That led to the Japanese army's advance. The above junior soldiers are mostly those who have not received formal military training, for example, if they were originally fishermen catching fish in the river, the Nationalist Army would simply say "a man". He abducted him for a reason and made him a soldier, threatening to "kill his family if you weren't a soldier." In the Battle of Nanjing, they were tied to a pillbox, unable to escape, and forced to fight the Japanese until their death. Regular soldiers such as Tang Shengzhi, the general commander of Nanjing, escaped from Nanjing before the Japanese troops entered, and lower-ranking soldiers were left in Nanjing Castle. This is the reason why Nanjing fell in a few days (December 10th to December 13th, 1937) compared to the Second Shanghai Incident (August to November 1937). There have been four so-called Nanjing incidents, and the Japanese army's entry into Nanjing in December 1937 was the third. Worse than that was the fourth battle (1949) between the Chiang Kai-shek Kuomintang and the Mao Zedong Communist Party. After Japan's defeat, Chiang Kai-shek and the Kuomintang asked President Soong Mei-ling to continue supporting China in the United States, but Truman refused, while Mao Zedong's Communist Party received the Soviet Union from the Japanese army in Manchuria. The seized weapon was transferred. There, China was in a state of civil war, and a large number of people were killed in Nanjing. Therefore, a considerable number of human bones are buried in Nanjing. Chiang Kai-shek, who was defeated by the Chinese Communist Party, fled to Taiwan, and Western Europe such as the United States left China ideologically incompatible with the Chinese Communist Party, and diplomatic relations between the United States and China were cut off (1949). (*****) (*) "Enemy crime investigation report" submitted by the Chinese side to the trial The Nanjing War Crimes Prosecutor's Office compiled records of witness testimonies of residents and charitable groups that buried their bodies from November 1945 to February 1946, prior to the Nanjing War Crimes Tribunal. It claims that "340,000 people" and "200,000 people in genocide". (**) It is said that there are about 200,000 poor people and prostitutes left in Nanjing. There is also a theory that Chiang Kai-shek hated blind prostitutes. (***) "Nanjing" (1938.2 Toho Sensen rear documentary movie) You can see the state of Nanking, the capital city without people, like the ruins when the Japanese army entered the castle. About 200 Japanese journalists were dispatched to Nanjing (Among them, Otaku Isoichi, Including Tatsuzo Ishikawa et al.). (****) "The Battle of China" (1944) You can watch the video of the group migration of Nanjing citizens to Chongqing. (*****) "China: The Roots of Madness" (1967) You can see the video of the group migration of Nanjing citizens to Chongqing, the civil war in 1949, and the withdrawal of foreign countries from China.
