World War II of Japan
- Chushingura of Asia -


In Japan, The Pacific War was called the "Far East War".
but, now it is called "The Pacific War".
This hides the truth under a cover...

 

The Pacific War is Chushingura of Asia

Chushingura is a day of the winter former December 14,'15. The Pacific war is a day of the winter December 8, 1941. Both were big incidents of the surprise attack success in daybreak of daybreak
of the early winter.

There was a cause in Chushingura, was a result, both parties were evaluated, and it became the fine anecdote and a good deed. On the other hand, the Pacific War became a result that all causes were passed over, only the result was evaluated, and unfairness Shayo is divided. However, was it a fact so? The cause of the surprise attack in the Pearl Harbor was Asia in each country of Western Europe surely an invasion.

An immediate cause of starting the war is an embargo toward Japan of the Hull note and oil. The United States has overall prohibited export to Japan in the age said, "One drop of oil is one drop of blood". It said from an international situation at that time and "Starting the war doesn't escape" was most views. The United States that did this dares to be exactly "Japan was provoked. "

Chushingura ended by the 47 people's hara-kiri. In the Pacific War, it ended with Cashi of 7 class-A war criminals and about 1000 person in other Asian various places that made the Tojo Hideki a first on the list. It practiced loyalty to both lords and nations. And, it died for the loyalty. The loyalty is a basis of the idea of chivalry. this is "Reason." "Logic." "It became the reason for things." and "Reason that man should do.".

Chushingura ended in internal affairs of Japan. On the other hand, the Pacific War brought the result of repainting the map of the world. The race was liberated. Each race accomplished independence in various places in the world. The purpose of the Pacific War was perfectly accomplished. Japan accomplished the purpose by becoming splendor perfectly though it was defeated at the war. The human race is exactly a highest peak this in the history of the world, and is not found of the big incident more than the Pacific War even if it sees in the history of the world of 5,000 years.

The person who recognizes the meaning of the Pacific War talks the following and eloquently.

The construction of the Alexander empire, the Genghis Khan's large expedition, Napoleonic Wars, and World War I are not the numbers of one compared with the scale, the content, and the result of the Pacific War. The meaning of this big incident has shown the gallant figure over there of the rainbow with the passage of historical time as plainly as Mt. Fuji and the Mt. Everest, and magnificently. (omission)
It is said that there were three revolutions of the human race liberating in the history of the world at the early modern age. It is "Industrial Revolution", "French Revolution", and "Pacific War. "It was liberated from labor in the Industrial Revolution, it was liberated from freedom and equality by French Revolution, and four billion colored races were liberated from the white's slave rule in the Pacific War. Was there a history great as this last liberating?

Conscience of victorious country

The Japanese wound serviceman association delegation visited Netherlands that was the enemy country at the war in 1991. In that case, the greeting of mayor Amsterdam who heard it with the wound serviceman representative in the Netherlands is the following.

Japan was defeated in the Pacific War. Our Netherlands was suffered a crushing defeat though won. Now, Japan became an economic power that fought over the most in the world second place. Meanwhile, our Netherlands was continuous of disgrace. That is, it became the best poor country in the world though it was necessary to have won. There was big colony Indonesia 36 times the own country in Asia, and the own country was praising prosperity by the resource product such as oil at prewar days.
The Netherlands today became the own country height of the same area as Kyushu
in Japan. It is a mistake though despise me and being apologized by Japan, "Troubled
various races very much. It apologizes to cause the war of aggression in various parts of Asia.".
Only you did the height in the human race and goodness of throwing own blood, liberating an East Asian race, and helping out. People in your country blindfold, and cannot see the truth of a past history. Only the viewpoint of the Pacific War is shown. Or, it is brainwashed. It is thought that it was done that it was bad. I am pretending the twicer. However, it is likely to have to fall and to return here the history. The truth will have to be watched.
I white is bad in reality. It competed for 100-as many as 300 years, an East Asian race was conquered by military power, and it made it under power as my territory.
Having stood up by the slogan named Greater East Asia Co-prosperity Sphere as a considerable, sublime ideal hung when liberated the East Asian various races who were made to the colony and the possession and overworked in the slave for a long time, and prospered both might be sure to have been your country Japan.
It is people in Western Europe who invade the really bad one and were shaking power. The liberating the East Asia was achieved though did the defeat of Japan. That is, a Japanese army ended the banishment of all of the victorious country from the East Asia. Asian various races achieved independence respectively as a result. Distinguished services of Japan are great. Only you who bleeds and fought are the highest men of merit. It is necessary to stop me being despised, to put the chest in a dignified manner, and to regain the boast. [1, P126]

Voice in postwar days from Asia

It is a word of Ccrit Pramord that became a Prime Minister in Thailand in 1973 as follows.

Asian nations became independent everything thanks to Japan. The child who was born is growing up rapidly though mother named Japan has a hard delivery and ruined the mother's body. Whose is the nations people's in Southeast Asia being able to talk equally with rice and Britain on earth thanks today? For it to have had mother named Japan that killed body and had done benevolence December 8 is a day when mother who shows us this important thought risks oneself, and an important decision was done. We must not forget this day.
[9, p106]

The situation in which Japan is being put now is vividly shown here. It is a flood of the leftist ideology to have a hard delivery and to ruin the mother's body. And, the opposite is shown that we had always learnt only "Asia was conquered and not breathed in" for the point that Asian nations that had come into existence were growing up rapidly. There is a distance to this with various information on the stereotype and the world in Japan that is within the country.

Radha Binod Pal doctor's Japanese innocence theory

The historical view that Japan launched out into starting the war for the defense is international common sense now. It is an argument of Mr. Radha Binod Pal whose it is representative India's judge in Tokyo war crimes tribunal to do the basis. It is said at the people, "Japanese innocence theory".

The analysis of this theory is done worldwide and widely, and, now, becomes even the common sense of International Law. However, the content did not come out in the table in Japan until GHQ's having prohibited opening to the public, and becoming 1950's. It is unhappiness in Japan and the world that material important like this is not too famous in this Japan.

The Pal doctor saw the result of Tokyo war crimes tribunal, and grieved, "The truth of the method was lost". And, it is said that the damage of Tokyo war crimes tribunal was talked about that it is more extensive than a nuclear bomb when the word said, "We do not repeat the mistake" in Hiroshima is heard.

International Law remains still sleeping as follows.

The war trial is called one large trait of World War II with the purge (purge from public service). However, advancement not only is obstructed to International Law because this war trial passed too unfair, and retaliating but also the prestige has seeing that came out completely on ground. For instance, International Law remained sleeping, and was gone to point that had plainly collided with International Law in a Hungarian event, a Berlin event, a Cuban event or the inside sign border problem, Eichmann event, and an international, important dispute and the event that come one after another though had been obviously used the poisonous gas and BC arms in the Vietnam war that had occurred afterwards even of the one to say and one deflecting of whom. Completely, International Law is and is no and is.
Thus, the law order of the world comes to be disregarded in addition as a result of the war trial, and the world has been degenerated with the lawless society that completely becomes it. [2, P1]

"The harm of the trial that illegally becomes it is more extreme than the damage of an atomic bomb" is a word the doctor's having been warned.

I want to see continuously according to the time series before and behind the
Pacific War.

Lead to the Pacific War,
and the Sino-Japanese War and Russo-Japanese War

It became a starting point where this war changed the flow of the history of
the world.

China at that time and Qing were defeated at opium war (1842), and yielded to rule and the territory division on the west side. Qing paid attention to weak country on the east side and "Korea and Japan" to retrieve the defeat, and attempted rule. Qing strengthens rule starting with civil war (1882) of Korea when strengthen rule to Korea, sets Japan as an enemy country of assumption, newly establishes the grounds ground Tabijun naval port with the northern sea fleet, and has overpowered Japan.

Korea was the nearest neighboring country, and a lifeline for Japan. To defend independence in the inside and Korea that received overpowering, Sino-Japanese War (1894-1895) was begun. The war will end in less than one year because of successive victories of Japan more than the expectation. Around and Shimonoseki peace (1895) came to be connected with the end of the war. It is a content of this agreement as follows.
[4]

  1. Qing confirms Korea is an independence it is absolutely perfect main countries.
  2. Liaodong peninsula, Mizumishima, and Taiwan are ceded to Japan.
  3. 200 million Crahiragin tails (Japanese money about 300 million yen) are paid as
    a war expenditure ransom.
  4. Open city in city, Chungking, Suzhou, and Hangzhou and approval of manufacturing
    engaging right on open city and ground of opening a port
  5. Connect the Nissin amity agreement on the same condition as European nations.

However, the six days later, Russia with the ambition of full state advancement did so-called "Tripartite Intervention" with "Restore Liaodong Bandao" in cooperation with Germany and France.

It was not simple so much though the logic of this tripartite Intervention became "The invader was Japan" if it was the one "The Japan owning of Liaodong Bandao made the capital of Qing dangerous, became an independent obstruction of Korea, and was a menace to peace in the Orient", and this was assumed to be a just argument when it became public. The following speculations existed respectively.

To be necessary the harbor free from ice for the Far East advancement in the future, and to obtain it, Russia had to prevent Japan from continental advancing. A dew German border safely became, and thought Germany for them to able to have right to speak when Qing was divided in the future if the target of Russia headed for Japan. In France, the detente of dew Germany had the speculation of convenience from the standpoint where it was safe for the home country, and executed Franco-Russian Alliance. [5]

Japan at that time drank tears because there was no power to fight against three powers at that time, and responded to the restoration. Something of Japan of thinking was here in Japan. There are the following circumstances.

Japan tried to get the backup of Britain, the United States, and 3 countries in Italy unavoidably and to oppose Russia, Germany, and France. However, the refusal of Britain that hoped for the stability of the trade to Qing was undertaken, the plan failed, and a restoration all Liaodong Bandao was decided on May 4. It compromised by receiving the compensation money 45 million yen on November 8 and the Liaodong peninsula refund agreement was signed, and the delivery of occupied territories was completed, and withdrawn on December 27 though owned Liaodong Bandao for the time being by Japan in the ratification of the Shimonoseki agreement. [4]

However, the talk doesn't end it is possible to hold this. Russia in which the kindness had been sold to Qing leased Liaodong Bandao from Qing with great boldness in 1898 March, that after for the only several years, and put it under the rule.

Russia will not be a translation that forgets the meaning of "The Japan owning of Liaodong Bandao makes the capital of Qing dangerous, becomes an independent obstruction of Korea, and is a menace to peace in the Orient" started to say from me. I have invaded Russia at once as soon as I see the chance saying, "The invasion is bad" toward Japan. The strategy like this Russia was an old trick internationally though it was "Rare" to see no such sincerity in Japan. Especially, in the communist state. In a word, it is "Opportunism. "

Here, Russia comes to build a large fortress in Tabijun.

When it was necessary to revenge it some time, word "Sustained determination and perseverance"
became popular the one treatment because of the Japan disregard of this Russia.

Sustained determination and perseverance
It is known originally as a slogan that circulated mainly journalism after the Sino-Japanese War on the history of Japan though it is an idiomatic phrase that means seeing as the Shiki etc. of China "Hardships suffer hardships to revenge it".
This slogan became a suitable word in the government's achieving the maintenance of national unity, increasing taxes by management after the war at the time of aimed at strengthening military power, and requesting the people's cooperation from the public debt issue etc. , and played the role to make thought of retaliation against Russia known to the people. [4]

"Sleeping lion" and feared Qing came to be disregarded by having been defeated at the Sino-Japanese War , saying that "Pig that was able to sleep" before. The aggression on China of powers becomes violent further along with it. The Santo reflecting was leased in Germany (1898), and Odoumi Mamoru was leased in Britain (1898) and the Kuangchou bay was leased to France (1899).

The invasion of the powers country stimulated a Chinese democratic movement, and became a movement of Yoshicazdan that hung out "Kiyoshi Horo Hiroshi". The powers country dispatched an army to strengthen the rule, and became Kita incident.

Kita incident
The war from the capital and the Tsu occupation to the Beijing occupation of Allied Forces of Yoshicazdan was called q Kita incident rin Japan. [4]

Russian troops have extended power to Korea that stays on with great boldness in full state, and continues though were repressed the incident. The situation in Japan at this time was complex.

The Japan-Russia entente theory to which it tried to maintain the Far Eastern peace by the Japanese-English alliance theory that started achieving the approach with Britain to establish stability in east Asia and international a position in Japanese Government after this so-called incident of Kita and the compromise with Russia gained power. Elder statesman Yamagata A and Jutaro Foreign Minister Komura et al. tried to insist on the former from the distrust to Russia, and, on the other hand, to promote the latter as a realistic solution by Hirofumi elder statesman Ito and Kaoru Inoue. [4]

This is caught as a confrontation of the land power mainly composed of the land and Shepawar so-called mainly composed of the sea. Russia is a land power originally country, and Britain is a country of Shepawar. When Japan unites it with the country of Shepawar, the real value can be demonstrated in history. Korea and China are a land power countries, and Taiwan and Indonesia are Shepawar.

A Japanese-English negotiation progressed, and the Japanese-English alliance agreement was signed in January, 1902 after this. Japan comes to have obtained the foothold where it opposes Russia for the first time by passing the alliance with Britain in a complex Far Eastern situation. And, Japan does the declaration of war to Russia in 1904.

There is Kita incident, and it will rush into Russo-Japanese War with a speculation of national defense and the West in the policy of going south and Japan in Russia and the complex one intertwined.

It is the general data of Russo-Japanese War as follows.

Russo-Japanese War
War that Japan and the Russian two countries fought over rule of Korea (Dai empire) and full state (reality and Chinese northeast part) in 1904]05. Interests and the speculation in each country intervened in procurement and peace etc. of the war expenditure because it had conflicted imperialism interests of various powers such as Britain-U.S. and French Germany behind the two countries, and, on the other hand, world's attentions were collected as a challenge of new country Japan to large country Russia.[4]

This became shape that was "The grudge of the sustained determination and perseverance at of long standing exploded finally" if it said in the public opinion.

The army sends troops to full state, and has defeated a large fortress in Russia and the impregnability and 203 high grounds of Tabijun while putting out 60,000 casualties. This is famous general Nogi in the world. And, it won the continuing Tatematsten rally war, too. Exactly, even the Daito sub-end of the war boasts of "Successive victories" to the army. There is little riot though three million one soldier is left in the end of the war of the Pacific War, too and the army that pursud the sword in a day can say that it was samurai's appearance exactly.

Russia dispatched Baltic Fleet to the Far East that this situation should be retrieved. The large decisive battle which remains in the world history, and Battle of Tsushima which risked the fate of a country open a curtain here.

Japan's combined fleet commander in chief is Heihachiro Togo. The commander in chief of Russia is Rozhestvenskii. The fate of a country was both carried on its back. Japan is a battleship 4, a battle cruiser 20, a destroyer 21, and other 49 boats. The enemy was 39 in a battleship 8, a battle cruiser 11, a destroyer 9, and others, and military power was almost equal.

Although it was a problem along which strait in Soya, Tsugaru, and Tsushima an enemy ship passes, Togo applied all to Tsushima Strait. It becomes a motion of an enemy ship as expected on May 27. A wave is high, although news is received from the Shinano circle which is watch's warship as having seen the enemy ship, Director Togo is a beautiful passage phrase and the "weather is fine. Whether the Empire prospers or it is ruined have started this battle. It hung up work strenuously further" wholly and the battle was challenged.

Fighting was a full victory rarely seen in the history of a naval battle. The adroitness of tactics which represents the cause of victory in the Togo turn, daily intense training, the newly developed Shimose gunpowder, large confusion of Russia which lost the commander immediately, etc. are mentioned. It was the battle of abbreviation half a day.

The news of the Japanese victory struck people in the world. As for this fighting, the colored race won the white race. It was first fighting in the world history. It was the big incident to which hope, impression, and courage arose in the world.
Impression of people of those days can be seen at various places. In Japan, the lantern procession of three evenings and joy of banzai banzai resounded to all over the country and the Japanese Islands on the third. The countries in the world were also occupied by especially Russia and the voice of joy arose among the countries which have received pressure. It was pleased with this victory like my thing, and Japan and Heihachiro Togo were admired. There are also the following reports about Turkey.

There is a "Togo passage" in Istanbul in Turkey and it is in it a "NOGI passage" and "KODAMA passage" further.TOGO and NOGI are a name of a person in Poland. The Togo beer named "admiral TOGO" is drunk in Finland. Hundreds of thousands of are imported by Japan until now. [1, P150]

This fighting was the starting point of human-beings release, and that concentration and completion were the Pacific War. The large matter of race release and the Pacific War cannot be told for extracting the Russo-Japanese War.

China incident (Sino-Japanese War)

Generally, it is called "Sino-Japanese War." It was called the China incident those days and was also temporarily called the Japanese flower incident in the postwar period. The Lukow-kiao incident became the beginning of this incident.

Lukow-kiao incident

This is the collision incident of an army in the daytime which happened near Lukouchiao which exists in a suburb of southwest in Beijing on the night of July 7, 1937. In China, it is also called 7-7 incident. This incident is also the misfortune of Japan which has thrust the leg into the bog of China. Generally, it is told as follows.

Although anti-Japanese saving-the-country movement had increased and become tense in China those days, the Japanese army company commander under night exercises heard the sound of live shooting on the north in Lukouchiao this night, since one •º became unknown (it returns to a party soon), it went into the battle attitude, and the China camp ground was following attacked on the 8th at dawn, and it said the battle.
Although the China side which has experience evacuated by the skirmish in September, the previous year although the Japan side required withdrawal of the China army to the Yongding Hu west coast in cease-fire negotiations was not recognized easily but the small collision also took place, this was accepted at last on the 11th and the cease-fire agreement was concluded.
However, this Japanese Imperial-Guards Cabinet appealed for national unity to each field while it announced sending troops and determined mobilization of a three inland army division noting that it was based on the planned military power anti-Japanese of China. On the other hand, Nationalist Chinese government positively refused the extortion to Chinese sovereignty infringement and a Chinese KISATSU government, and announced that resistance was not resigned if compelled, either. The Japanese army started the all-out attack on the 28th, and it said all-out war in the daytime.[4]

And the Nanjing Massacre is dreamed as having happened, when this incident was expanded and Nanjing was occupied on December 13.

Nanjing Massacre

China fabricates this incident and it comes out of it. There is a custom referred to as "3 Having taken the Mitsumasa policy" in China in order that the side in which it lost fighting might speak ill of a partner. The Japanese who heard the sour-grapes utterance tried to have won popularity in between. "bundle bundle. This will be able to be used. " It is the talk which the left wing thought of fabricated. Please refer also to the following viewpoints.

although many scientific counterevidence is taken out from the Japan side about the Nanjing Massacre, the Chinese government and Japan government is also a notice about this -- it is alike and does not carry out. although comfort women also showed clearly that a scholar group of Japan did not have compulsion of an army, the Japanese government sees and stops participation of an army conversely Although the Chinese government made the victim of the Nanjing Massacre 300,000 people, why was 300,000 people's slaughter completed in Nanjing in which 200,000 people's citizen was those days? And immediately after there was an incident, 1 of large number of people returns from the evacuation ground, and the population of Nanjing amounts also to 300,000 people. It is because safety was checked. Why has safety checked, if there was a slaughter? If compulsive taking of the North Korean woman by participation of an army was a fact, why had comfort women become silent as long as 50 years after the war? It is because it is an out-and-out lie altogether. [10, p145]

The China incident rushes into the Pacific War as it is, without solving.

Outbreak of the Pacific War

Far East War is the name of the Pacific War which the Hideki Tojyo Cabinet determined.

Far East War
The name of the Pacific War which the Hideki Tojyo Cabinet determined. The Imperial-Headquarters government liaison conference performed determination <the Pacific War is called also including the China incident> for this war on December 10, 1941 two days after the outbreak of war, and explanation that the Cabinet Information Board will have the war purpose in <large New Order in East Asia construction> on the 12th was announced.
This means that it does not go back and include to the China incident which broke out on July 7, 1937, but war in the China area on and after December 8, 1941 is included.
[4]

The following is the Imperial rescript of declaration of war.

It will be expanded if it clicks.

The reason of the outbreak of war is directly explained to this, and it is supremely important.

The reasons of the outbreak of war are mainly as follows.

  • U.S. neutral breach of duty in the China incident
  • The time earnings of the U.S. in the members of ABCD economy envelopment, and Japan-U.S. negotiation
  • Extortion by Hull Note

Respectively, an outline is indicated below.

U.S. neutral breach of duty in the China incident

The United States was performing the military aid to China between the China incidents, and although Japan protested by there being nothing with how often, it did not stop. This is clear neutral breach of duty, and according to the judgment of a Pal judge in Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals, it means that Japan and the United States had already suited a state of war from this time if it compared with international law. According to Dr. Perl, far from before the Pearl Harbor attack, Japan and the United States are in a state of war, and will not exist "surprise attack". This is a fact international already known widely. I want to quote the following sentences.

"If shipment of arms and munitions is forbidden so much to one country directly concerned of military power dispute of one country according to the basic principle of international law and that shipment is permitted so much in other countries directly concerned, that country will carry out military interference to this dispute inevitably, and it becomes the country directly concerned of war irrespective of the existence of declaration of war" (omission).
That is, according to the doctor, it is that of "the United States had become a belligerent nation far from before the time of the Pearl Harbor attack by its act."[2, p111]

The time earnings of the U.S. in the members of ABCD economy envelopment, and Japan-U.S. negotiation

The members of ABCD economy envelopment are the economic blockades the United States of America, Britain, China, and the Allies of the Netherlands went to Japan. It became decisive that dealings of the oil which was a lifeline were stopped especially. Those days, between the American politician, a military house, a critic, etc., just as it forbade oil, it had become common sense that it will be warring. President Roosevelt is also performing the following utterances.

"The United States does not forbid export of oil to Japan for avoiding outbreak of war kicked in the South Pacific water area, in order that it may consider U.S.'s own profits and defense of Britain, and marine freedom further again. That is, it is for not making Japan provoke." [2, p120]

Those days, between Japan and the United States, the intense exchange was mainly made involving the hegemony of the China continent. According to the decision of Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals performed at the postwar period, it is to be said that neither concession nor sincerity was accepted in the Japan side, but it was that there was also no will which concludes negotiation, and Japan did the time earnings for war preparation, and Japan carried it into the outbreak of war forcibly in spite of U.S. concession. The matter currently written also on this textbook is a contrary with the entire fact, and 3 times order had also repeated concession. And finally, the United States forbade the export of oil in order to provoke Japan. And there are also the following viewpoints.

"The reason that an effective export ban was not carried out more early is not that the United States was very friendly to Japan those days. Japan was expected to be ruined when the view generally performed those days carried out a complete export ban. If it becomes so, other ways will be lost rather than Japan fights. However, the United States did not have then only the preparation which still infringes on the danger of anti-Japanese war. it seems that all-out war can be invited in whether it obtains and buys as the U.S., and the Pacific Ocean until the point that Germany cannot attack the United States in the direction of the Pacific Ocean is confirmed enough" [2, p122]

Time earnings are especially carried out, the United States became, and the fact was not Japan.

Extortion by Hull Note

The following is general data about Hull Note.

Hull Note
The proposal of the United States in the final stage of Japan-U.S. negotiation. It is on November 26 as a reply to the negotiation point proposal for rice which the November 20, 1941 Japan side submitted. Secretary of State Hull showed. The main contents were the governments other than the Republic of China Nationalist Chinese government in conclusion of the multilateral nonaggression pact between Japan besides four principles of the equality of the opportunity on the territory of all states, the inviolability of sovereignty, noninterference in internal affairs, and commerce, and the peaceful resolution of international disputes, the United States, Britain, China, the Netherlands, Thailand, and Soviet, complete withdrawal of China, the army of Japan from Indo-China, and police power, and Chongqing or denial of political power, denial of Triparite Pact by Japan, Germany and Italy, etc. The Hideki Tojyo Cabinet and the military authorities considered that Hull Note was an anti-Japanese ultimatum, and, finally determined the Pacific War outbreak of war on December 8 by the Imperial Council on December 1. [4]

And the reactions when getting to know this announcement are as follows.

In spite of having done one's best in formation of Japan-U.S. negotiation until the defendant (foreign minister of those days) Togo also confessed with "It was shot by disappointment to the extent that an eye also feels dizzy" and "Japan wrote him, when Hull Note was received from the Nomura ambassador by telegram, the United States sent the last notification like Hull Note, and provoked my direction. Furthermore, since it was also going to apply military power-suppression, opinion coincidence was carried out when there was no other way but to have fought [ self-defense ]. It is described as ". Each of all of defendants has described the same thoughts as this. The Japanese leader not only received so, but in the United States, the voice of the blame to this Hull Note mounted the day later on later. [2, p136]

There is a defendant in Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals with a "defendant."

And the United States which took out Hull Note expected that this will result in the outbreak of war as it is, and this last announcement considered that it was a thing equal to declaration of war. The outbreak of war also with the de facto judgment by the Pal judge is November 27 instead of December 8 when declaration of war and the Pearl Harbor attack were performed which submitted Hull Note and the U.S. Forces attached to battle disposition. I want to quote the following.

The de facto outbreak of war = November 27
"President Roosevelt and Defense Secretary Hull were convinced that the Japan side does not accept a proposal. Therefore, it ordered for a text to emit the warning of war to many commanders of an American outpost area belt, and to go into war organization at the next day handed to the Japan side representation, without waiting for Japan's reply. It is declared that the Robert report received warning that the day of already the outbreak of war of American advance post commanders November 27 was near at hand. It has proved that Dr." Perl raised the proof and the Pacific War started on November 27 as a matter of fact. [2, p141]

If the battle had started on November 27, it will be said that Pearl Harbor on December 8 does not have a surprise attack anything, either.

The tragedy of the halfway decryption by the United States is also mentioned to the reverse side which resulted in the last announcement. If decoded without mistaking every word, although it was good, a tragic end is rather to have been decoded accidentally severely.

The following is common data about declaration of war.

The urgent extraordinary cabinet meeting was performed in the Prime Minister's official residence, and important issues, such as an affair of the so-called "Pacific War" declaration of war and a government statement, were brought up for discussion and determined at 7:00 a.m. on December 8, 1941. After the Privy Council held the extraordinary urgent general meeting, made the affair of declaration of war the subject for discussion from the government side and talked about various problems, such as a belief of situation analysis and the government, it mixed the Emperor from 9:45, held the plenary session, and determined declaration of war for these 30 minutes. The Privy Council plenary session is ended at 11:10. The Imperial rescript of declaration of war was emitted at 11:40. "Official gazette extra" December 8, 1941 [5]

Hull Note was made by the agent (spy) of the Soviet Union.

Hull Note was what reverses the anti-Japanese diplomacy of U.S. former entirely. The text was made by the spy of the Soviet Union. Although Hull Note was created by President Roosevelt's close attendants, and Harry White and Japan was shown it according to the presidential life for Director Hull, this Harry White was an agent (spy) of the Soviet Union. The basis is in the "VENONA text" exhibited in the United States in 1995.
A VENONA text is a cryptogram chapter which set at the World War II time, and U.S. NSA (National Security Agency) received and decoded, and Harry White also comes out in this.

An Far Eastern joint declaration

It will be the declaration of the design for an area which carries out coexistence prosperity in the Far East unanimously adopted in the Far Eastern meeting in November, 1943 which is during wartime.

It will be expanded if it clicks.

The Emperor was drawing such an ideal. Although the Asia principle by the Imperial Way school and the imperialism by the control group were intermingled in Japan as shown below, the Imperial Way school aimed at such Greater East Asia Coprosperity Sphere purely.

The following attendants had participated in the meeting in the Far East where this resolution was made.

In this meeting held in Tokyo, Tojo will be begun November 5 to 6 a day, and they are the China administration director's Wang Zhao ming, the Harikage blessing of the Prime Minister of the affairs of state of Manchuria, and the Philippines President Jos. Paciano Laurel, Burma President BAMO, acting Prime Minister Thailand WAITAYACORN, and the free India temporary government president Subhas Chandra Bose adopted declaration of the area of Far Eastern coexistence and co-prosperity with attendance and unanimity.

Potsdam Declaration

The provision which the Japan side accepted in the end of the war. The following is common data.[4]

The Potsdam Declaration was what Allies leaders determined the anti-Japanese processing plan of the conclusion conditions of the Pacific War, and the postwar period as following the Cairo declaration (the Cairo talk, November 27, 1943) and a Yalta agreement (February 11, 1945), and the outline was as follows.

  1. Expulsion of Japanese militarism, and permanent removal of a militarism leader's power, and influence
  2. Japanese occupation by the Allies until the new order of peace, safety, and justice is built
  3. Restriction to Kojima whom Honshu of the sovereignty of Japan, Hokkaido, Kyushu, Shikoku, and the Allies determine
  4. Full disarmament of a Japanese national army party, and a soldier's demobilization
  5. Freedom and assertion of fundamental human rights of speech, religion, and thought a war criminal's punishment and Japan
  6. Prohibition of munitions production
  7. Withdrawal of occupation forces after many above-mentioned purposes were attained and the peaceful government by the Japanese's free will was established
  8. Unconditional surrender of a Japanese national army party.

Since Kantaro Suzuki of the prime minister who yielded to a military-authorities Lord game group's pressure on July 28 declared that this declaration was ignored, the United States dropped the atomic bomb for it to Hiroshima and Nagasaki on the excuse. After passing through participation in the war of the Soviet Union, Japan determined acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration by decision with the sacred Emperor in an Imperial Council on August 14.

Therefore, it was not "unconditional surrender" which is generally known. Since there were conditions, it is "owner condition surrender", and if it is called "unconditionedness", you should consider as "unconditional trust." It is the power of propaganda that such a false rumor spread after the war. Many textbooks and mass communications are still spreading the lie of "unconditional surrender."

The Imperial rescript of the end of the war

It is the Imperial rescript of the famous end of the war. First, common data is described below.

The cabinet meeting which creates an Imperial rescript proposal immediately was held after the determination of August 14, 1945 and the Potsdam Declaration acceptance. The Imperial rescript of the total number of letters of 814 characters which took in the well-informed person of scholar-of-Chinese-classics Masaatsu Yasuoka and others and the opinion of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs etc. was made within the day, and was promulgated around 11:00 p.m. The purport of the Potsdam Declaration acceptance was notified to the Allies side through the immediately after Switzerland. "Official gazette extra" August 14, 1945 [4]

The following is the text of an imperial edict.

It will be expanded if it clicks.

By this broadcast, millions of soldiers who were developing in various parts of Asia took down arms all at once. Although there are not most riots and reckless run and arms were taken down while military power like this remained, this is rarely seeing in a European and American war. It is the scene understood how the Japanese army was maintaining control.

The Emperor's renunciation of divinity by emperor

It is the common name of the imperial edict taken out in 1946 on the New Year's Day.

Generally, "declaration that the Emperor was also a one man was made after the war" is supposed. But, if it carries out from those who get to know history correctly, it will be a natural thing that the Emperor is a man and it will not hit a problem.

As for the meaning "as God which is valid in the Emperor" contained in renunciation of divinity by emperor, the following is consulted.

Originally, many ARATUKI-KAMI, ARATUKI-KAMI, or characters to the Imperial edict of the Emperor at the Nara morning time that become AKITUMI-KAMI are seen. [13, p176]
To the beginning of declaration

Emperor Monmu
(Abbreviation)
Emperor Genmei
(Abbreviation)
Emperor Kouken
(Abbreviation)

Although there is a more than Imperial rescript of ten, all are to surely attach and read "as" under the character of "God." This is a meaning called the Emperor with the heart of God. It is a very discreet alleged name. It was the alleged name which put the prayer. The Emperor is not God. It is a meaning called the Emperor with the heart of God.[13, p176]

(Explanation of a Japanese archaic word is omitted. )

Therefore, "it has the discreet heart of God in the Emperor's heart". It is the meaning to say. The Emperor has not said that a word is also God. From the first, prewar days and no postwar period of this point are unchanging. The Emperor is not God. Therefore, it is a mistake that an overseas report makes the Emperor God.

Although this renunciation of divinity by emperor was generally called "renunciation of divinity by emperor" to be sure, as Emperor Showa, this renunciation of divinity by emperor was the next of 2.That Charter Oath was shown showed that there was such a splendid idea from Meiji Era, it has forgotten the pride as a Japanese and care with there being nothing suited it in the first place.

Do I hear that there was His Majesty's hope in showing Emperor Meiji's Charter Oath? The answers to the reporter who asked are as follows.

His Majesty
It is the first purpose of the imperial edict at that time. Divinity and such a thing were the problems of 2. Since describing it surely had the strong influence of other U.S. and many foreign countries in that that time and a fear of people being overwhelmed by it was strong. The Meiji Great's thought adopted democracy. And it was promised to God. Since such Charter Oath was emitted, it became origin and Meiji Constitution was made, I think that the necessity which shows that it is not the thing of import never greatly suited a thing called democracy.
(Omission)
And it is since he thought that it was very out of order when Japanese people had forgotten pride of Japan. In order that Japanese people might show that there was such splendid Meiji Great's idea so that he may not forget pride of Japan, I expected of announcing that. [12]

There is an idea of saying "what it argues about publicly is respected" from the first in Japan also historically, and democracy was never imported.

The following is common data about renunciation of divinity by emperor.

Since there is a portion which denied the Emperor's divinity in this in the common name of the imperial edict taken out on January 1, 1946, this name exists. In this imperial edict, subsequently, Charter Oath in 1868 was hung up as an indicator of Shinnihon after the Pacific War defeat, and the bonds of the Emperor and people were not what was produced according to a myth and tradition, and they denied the Emperor's divinity noting that they are not based on the idea which makes the Emperor a living deity and teaches predominance of as opposed to the Japanese race's other races for it to a basis.
This imperial edict Prime Minister Kijuro Shidehara made a draft in English gaining support of GHQ, and it was emitted as part of a Japanese democratization policy by occupation forces. Although the impression that the side of divinity denial of the Emperor was strong against people was given at the time of promulgation since the mobilization to war of people had been made focusing on State Shinto till then, it is in August, 1977, divinity denial of this declaration is the problem of 2, and Emperor Showa said that it emphasized that it was what Charter Oath expresses a democratic tradition to.[4]

Tokyo tribunal

The common name of the military court performed over two years and seven months on May 3, 1946 to November 12, 1948. It is correctly called "International Military Tribunal for the Far East".

The following is the judgment table of Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals.[4]

It will be expanded if it clicks.

In this trial, the "Japanese innocence theory" to which the Pal judge of India follows below was developed. Although this fact is very important also for Japan, of course also internationally, since GHQ was suppressing freedom of speech for a while after the war, it is the hidden true thing which seldom looks at sunlight even in now.

From now on, research of this "Japanese innocence theory" will become much more important.

The outline of "a Japanese innocence theory"

I want to describe the outline about a Radha Binod Pal judge's "Japanese innocence theory" hereafter.

Is it might is right?[2, P11]
Don't mix up morality and law.

Judgment without the reason for judgment [2, P21]
"According to the announcement of the international situation Research Bureau of Britain in 1950, it is written that Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals is only a conclusion, and has neither a reason nor proof. (Omission of the rest) "

Three catchphrases [2, P27]

  1. Crime which receives peacefully
Of course at the new name of crime devised in order to catch Hitler 1 party with one throw, there is nothing to international law and customary law. This is applied to Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals.

2. The crime of homicide
The hostile act which it was pulled out from the crime of violation of a treaty, and did not declare war, but were made by carrying out is not war. They say that therefore, the murder produced by the battle is a homicide act. (Omission) It is this and the new name of crime which were invented by the criminal investigation team of Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals.

3. Usual war crimes and the crime over humanity
Usual war crimes, such as extensive slaughter added to the noncombatant or abuse of a prisoner of war, and abuse, are summarized and said.

Thus, although all the fundamental views over Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals were united with the Nuremberg trial performed previously, they are good. (*)

* Quotation person notes
The trial performed to the specific act relevant to the Second World War and it in order to investigate the responsibility of the leaders of Nazi Germany. Although there is this name since the trial was performed in Nuremberg, Germany, a formal name is called international military trial. It ranked with Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals which investigated Japanese leaders' responsibility of the same kind, and some important problems were raised on international law.

The war criminal of a victorious nation is also sold well. [2, P31]

Law does not go back. [2, P54]

Race prejudice which flows a bottom [2, P83]

The proposal to the race problem [2, P89]

The Manchurian Incident is why to have occurred. [2, P95]
This is carrying out based on the "Lytton report."

Is an anticommunist treaty invasion? [2, P103]

Neutral duty is whether achieved. [2, P111]

The members of ABCD economy envelopment [2, P115]

What earned the time by Japan-U.S. negotiation[2, p122]

The U.S. last notice (Hull Note) [2, P136]

The de facto outbreak of war = November 27 [2, P141]

Pal judgment which increases light in international law academic circles[ 2, P180]

  • Sir Hankey who is the authority of international law
    a work "an error of a war criminal trial" -- "I do not suspect at all that the judge's Pal opinion is absolutely right", and declaration
  • Mr. Biel who is the leader of English judicial circles
    Work "approach of barbarous"
  • To the "state-of-the-world yearbook" (1950 fiscal year) by the world situation research institute in London, it applied to 104 pages from 54 pages, Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals was explained, and it was proved on it that a Pal judging was a fair argument.
  • American Dr. Charles BEATO
    Work "President Roosevelt, the form of the 1941 war, and actual research"
  • William, O, Douglas judge of the Supreme Court in the United States
    Testimony "the International Military Tribunal was not whom [ any ] other than the tool of political power, either"
  • Montgomery Bell John
    Work "victorious justice"
  • Fleder ATOREI
    Work "the high price of retaliation"
  • Philosopher Jaspers
    Work "the responsibility for war, and a crime"

After this, the argument in Tokyo Tribunal of War Criminals was esteemed, and the doctor was inaugurated as the committee and the chairperson of the Judiciary Committee of the United Nations, and fulfilled that job.

Although Dr. Radha Binod Pal's judgment is accepted widely internationally, in Japan, he hardly hears the name. Although Japan is still sick in bed, when Japan gets to know the past for Japan's revival, I can think it indispensable to dig up this decision.

A true U.S. figure

The following is a report which shows a U.S. figure well.

New York Times received the news of the Potsdam Declaration acceptance of Japan, and carried the report on August 14, 1945. The bottom of the big headline of "being in my hand about Pacific hegemony", "we attained the wish since Perry for the first time. An intruder is not in the Pacific Ocean any longer. It was reported that the market of the China continent became our thing now." [1, P164]

The Pacific War was just a war of aggression by the West. It is the report which catches a glimpse of U.S. the table and the reverse side of a military state. It is necessary to recognize the following U.S. points repeatedly.

By the mouth, you cry for peace, and cannot live without war in your real intention.
American Mr. poet Wen Cohen touched Dr. Beard's book in the library of a university, and he was surprised at the fact completely contrary to general common sense after the war. And he visited Japan, when Roosevelt wanted to apologize to having plotted war and having executed the leader of innocence of Japan from the bottom of his heart, and it forgot to write the following poetry in front of the monument of the remains of the Sugamo prison. "-- such -- the United States . Thou perverted law and trampled down justice. George Washington. Abraham Lincoln. Unjust you. Now, tears is shed in the next world."
The United States is the No.1 military power of the world through prewar days and the postwar period. It is also the No.1 export-of-arms power of the world simultaneously. The first U.S. industry is a war industry. For the prosperity, it is indispensable to the world that war, and dispute and disturbance occur frequently. Therefore, the United States is the representation of a "merchant of death." On the reverse side, the war boom is but wished that world peace is advertized for the sake of appearance from the bottom of the heart. Inconsistency of the policy of the Antinomie of U.S. tradition is exposed here.[6, P152]

A great Asia principle and imperialism

The imperialism which the left asserts, and the great Asia principle which the historical view of the Empire asserts. In order to understand this, I think that the following viewpoints are also consulted.

Japan of those days was not one imperialism which the left asserts, either, and was not the perfect holy war which the Asia principle group asserts, either. The both were clashing. Especially the following viewpoints are important.

Those days, Asia was released in Japan from colonial rule, occasionally the ideal that "Greater East Asia Coprosperity Sphere" will be made, and the invasion thought which is going to imitate the Western way and it is going to put under rule of Asia bumped into it, and the "twist phenomenon" occasionally united was coming to it. (Omission) In the Imperial Way school, the Asia principle and the control group leaned to imperialism those days. These both rivalry has not appeared suddenly under wartime. After modernization of the Meiji Restoration, probably Japan may pull the dilemma and may say that it came as ‚¸ until it continues up to now. [10, p26]

Please also consult the following opinions as that with which this is compensated.

The Meiji Restoration was the turning point when Japan stepped toward modernization. At this time, the view of "Asian-rejecting, European-strengthening bonds" was born to Japan, and the strategy of equaling the West and that Asia is governed as a strong country has budded rather than it is one country of Asia.
Takamori Saigo opposed this. The role of southwest was the rebellion of the Takamori Saigo Asia principle which makes it hasty and is opposed to complete Westernization. Although Saigo who asserted "the theory which conquers South Korea" and asked for preservation of samurai class tends to be considered to be a fighting group, he is a critic supporting defense in practice. Saigo's "theory which conquers South Korea" asked the Korean Peninsula for the defense line of Japan, and set weight in the alliance with an Icho dynasty.
The Imperial Way school who stands on the Asia principle on the basis of Saigo, and the control group who supports the modernization route which Toshimichi Okubo, Iwakuratomomi and others have pushed and recommended are opposed to each other inside an army soon.
The control group of a modernization principle took the extended principle. The group of the modernization principle of having recommended universal conscription and the wealth and military strength of a country recommends hasty opposite China and Korean diplomacy, and lands •º at the Korean Peninsula immediately. Henceforth, Japan aims at a Europe type war under a control group. It is the all-out war for Britain and U.S. which starts in the Hawaii surprise attack. They tried to confront Britain and U.S. by the method of Europe.
On the other hand, the Imperial Way school set the strategy to "the Asia release", and opposed the control group. Independence of Asian nations tended to be given and it was going to use the Asia whole country as the citadel of anti-Western Europe.
However, since the Imperial Way school was collapsing completely in 226 incidents, influence is lost, and it flies to many main force in an oversea land. The typical person is Tomofumi Yamashita who was opposed to the expansion and the Hawaii surprise attack of a battle line in China. Yamashita's and others plan strikes the outstanding player of Western Europe which is invading Asia, and next the bottom helps independent movement of Asia, and built the glory area mainly by Japan to Asia. [10, p27]

Japan can win the Pacific War. War without odds was never begun. Construction of the major nation house of East Asia which does not capture a country by imperialism and is not invaded by the independent recovery and the independent coexistence republican by establishment of the new government, and the West, and it were fully possible. Although there is no "if" in history, there were the following possibilities of enough.

Probably, the Pacific War had completely made the mistake in an aspect, if a battle line was not expanded on the China continent but the Hawaii surprise attack was omitted. When making the military power of land and the sea preserve in capture of Tomofumi Yamashita's Malay Peninsula, and the stage of the Philippines release, the China peninsula was unified by Sun Wen and the Asia whole country should have become the citadel of anti-Western Europe. (Omission)
Argument that Japan devised war which cannot win is defeat dog nature not to see the reality. Please think that the pro-Japanese government was established by the countries of India, China, and Southeast Asia, and see. When it becomes so, neither huge battleships, such as Yamato and Musashi, nor the strongest aircraft carrier battleship in the world can protect the Sea of Japan region, and the United States cannot devise an attack easily so in the Japanese army in which 8000 sets of zero games are on the watch fully prepared.
This is a nightmare in a European and American strong country. And it must have been the same also for the Communist Party of China. It is because a communist country house was not born to the China continent by that Asia is detained by backwardness, either, when Japan won war. [10, p28]

About postwar period compensation

What by which, as for "Germany, it comes often hearing it is compensating. Most Japan is the theories "which has not been compensated. Although a situation is completely different, there are those who do not yield such a talk in Germany and Japan. If the origin is followed, the fact that the fact Japan "fought for opening" is not recognized by remainder, either will be reached.

If their eyes are turned to the political power itself which is asking for compensation after the war together with it, the following interesting facts will be discovered.

It is wrong that a postwar revolution government asks for an apology.
The U.S., the U.K., the Buddhas, and the flowers which were Japanese main belligerent nations did not charge a compensation because the Pacific War was not war crimes (illegal war). Especially Chiang Kaishek made a Japanese army civilian employee and 2,100,000 Japanese Japanese residents go back to Japan safely, after abandoning the compensation of 50 billion dollars, and asserted Tenno system maintenance strongly. He was Chiang Kaishek with whom that it was also opposed to dividing and ruling of the country by the Allied Forces played Japan and a violent Japan-China game.
However, it does not fight with Japan, but China, and South Korea and North Korea after the revolution which has not carried out hostilities, either ask for much compensation and the apologies which are replaced with a compensation, and the strange situation where an old left-wing system anti-Japanese principle person takes the advantage of it in Japan is caused.[10, p143]

Before a revolution government happens, it is a pro-Japanese state, and the fact of having not charged a compensation at all, either appears here. Now, what is really the person who is making a great uproar in quest of compensation? I think whether the following viewpoints are also consulted.

It is because it was the revolution government which that two political power of the Korean Peninsula asks Japan for an apology beat the pro-Japanese group who occupied the governmental center till then, struck in response to U.S.-Soviet assistance, and was built. A revolution government denies a front government thoroughly. "Apologize" is from the hatred to the political power of prewar days constructed with Japan to Japan in them. It is free that the present government denies the past political power, but probably, even so, it will be too selfish to blame forever Japan which was good as for relations then. [10, p144]

Moreover, that present South Korea blames Japan has the cause also in education.

The "anti-Japanese education" which put into practice North Korea and South Korea is performed, and although it advertized as if Japanese Annexation of Korea was atrocious invasion, this is contrary to the fact. Although European and American colonial rule treated local people like oxen and horses and wealth was squeezed, Japan carried out in the Korean Peninsula because it was the equal policy which does not have an example in the world history the "mainland average" until it resulted in education from financial economy. [10, p144]

Thus, people's mind changes a lot in education. The same thing can be said even if it makes it a Japanese textbook.

Independence of Asian countries

By Japan fighting, most Asian countries became independent. The historical view which says in Japan and is spread "imperialism of Japan finished and peace has returned to Asia" is a mistake. Reality is this much different in until.

The following shows why even now, each country of Asia continue being pro-Japanese sentiment.

The father of independence of India is not Gandhi. Nehru does not have, either. It is Subhas Chandra Bose which built the India people's army and fought with the British army with the Japanese army. The portrait of Subhas Chandra Bose is still applied to the wall of the India Diet Building on the upper row of Gandhi, Nehru and others.
(Omission)
Most those which are called the father of the founding of the country in Asia, such as Ne Win of Myanmar and Thailand Land's Phibun, are the sworn friends of the old Japan army. After the old Japan army drives a wedge into white rule, the countries of Asia, such as Indonesia, rose in arms and have obtained independence. Asian nations have become independent not because the suzerain was tolerant, but because it beat the suzerain by arms.
(Omission)
Countries in South Asia which was under Japanese rule. The countries are pro-Japanese sentiment-like still. That is because they fought the war of independence with Japan once.
It is also from the same reason that many countries of Taiwan or the Malay Peninsula, and India or the countries in the South Pacific do not begin to have an apology or compensation.
(Omission)
Only the countries which built the revolution government after the end of the war, such as the Communist Party of China, the Republic of Korea, and Democratic People's Republic of Korea, blame Japan. However, with the Japanese army, since it was independent, the front government which they pushed down fought with the European and American outstanding player country. And although totalitarianism was again Korea in response to backup of major nations, such as the Soviet Union and the United States, when the independence became actual at last, they were revolution governments, such as China and Korea. [10, p147]

There is an appropriate reason in pro-Japanese sentiment. Moreover, there is an appropriate reason also in an anti-Japanese.

Future Japan has to carry out.

The following language expresses best.

Japan induced 100 or more new independent countries in the world as a result of the Pacific War. The most is poor and is only the premature baby who does not make a national figure. It is irresponsible to set a cheek as it is, although borne with much trouble. The country which waits for Japan's assistance is full. The mission which must rise for human beings for the world is given to Japan. This is just the calling of a race of Japan. youths -- fly away. And save the world. [1, P233]

Probably, Japan is just charged with the mission which contributes to the world, as it is here.
