Let me share with everyone here what I think Caster's view of Japan in WWII is.....oopps first off the "name" it isn't WWII but "The Pacific War".
Anyway Japan did not "invade" any country in the region, they liberated Korea, parts of China, the Phillipines, and everywhere else they set their footprint. They tried to liberate Australia but were stopped by the barbarians and their allies. The reason for this liberation was not for increasing their access to natural resources which as everyone here knows Japan is very limited in but to stop "western" read that as "white" hegemony in the region. Japan wanted to liberate it's fellow Asian's.
Now then along the way their troops needed to be comforted because they were so far from their "women" back home so the military contracted out to local business men for something in the neighborhood of 200,000 hookers.
Hell it didnt matter how they got the women or girls nothing matter except "comforting" the liberating troops.
Poor innocent girls, what do you mean, hell they got better pay than the generals.
This issue is mostly coming from Korea, they are just mad at us because we couldn't finish what we started when we liberated them back in 1905. They want us to come back, but since we refuse they want us to pay money for some phantom Comfort Women thing. Who ever heard of that, they were prostitutes.
Once a girl takes the money you know what that makes her...a prostitute. She didnt "have" to do it, she could have killed herself instead.
Just like the poor Japanese girls did when the big bad US Military invaded our little island paradise. Rape, you gotta be kidding me the men paid good money for their services, where does rape come into it.
Any man that raped a woman would have been shot, nope never happened just a figment of you imagination, give me proof. Hard evidence.
The US Military raped thousands maybe millions of Japanese women and girls and nothing was ever done about it. Why should we Japanese have to acknowledge this "Comfort Women" issue, the Americans are guilty of worse. Show me "evidence" that these women were coorced.
Oh I wont accept "human" testimony only something written in Japanese by the Japanese government. Everything that is in English isnt verifiable from the Japanese government so I wont believe it.
Oh also there was a "rumor" as well of one unit 731, that supposedly performed all sorts of experiments on, heaven forbid, humans from among the people that Japan liberated. But no, it wasnt like that they were all dead already before any experiments were performed, Japan is being "falsely" accused here. We would never do that. Show me the "evidence".
Oh I also digress, Rape of Nanking, what's that the name of a new ramen?
Never heard of it. Ahh the battle, there was no "rape", 200,000 deaths, you gotta be kidding the Japanese Army didn't have 20,000 bullets how are they going to murder, and rape that many people. It's just propaganda by the Chinese government to get us to pay them more money. There is no "proof".
There is just so much more to write...but to make a long story short we Japanese are unjustly being forced to admit things we didnt do.
We have to rewrite our history books because we were forced by those American's that invaded our country and perverted our minds by telling us we did something "wrong" by trying to liberate the world....sorry I mean Asia.
How dare they turn our own people against us.
People remember we are the victim's here, the US dropped those two bombs on us and look at all the people that died. Feel sorry for us, we deserve the pity. They should be held responsible.
Pearl Harbor...what's that a new restraunt in Shinjuku.
This is just a small portion of how I feel Caster views Japan and it's part in WWII. Some is pure speculation, however some is from research of a number of his previous posts here on Jref.
