On January 15, 2006, the World War II Veterans Committee awarded Iva Toguri D'Aquino its annual Edward J. Herlihy Citizenship Award, citing "her indomitable spirit, love of country, and the example of courage she has given her fellow Americans." (July 4, 1916 - September 26, 2006) Rest in peace, Iva.
Japanese people are smart and loyal. She was loyal to her heritage. Asians are that way. Be Japan, Korea and China. Japan will not let people imigrate to Japan, it would mess up Japan. Japan knows that. Look what happened to Europe and the US, Canada, Iva kept to her beliefs and always did. She must have been good, they wanted to nail her. Contrived trail, she pissed off a lot of people, meaning it worked what she did. She was shock Jock journalism before mainstream. Pioneering women of radio!
Well she was loyal to America Japan told her to announce loyalty to Japan and renounce all American ties and she refused and she was harassed by neighbors and officers
She did receive a presidential pardon, in 1977, from Gerald Ford. That was not long after this 60 minutes episode in 1976. _U.S. President Gerald Ford granted a full and unconditional pardon to Iva Toguri D'Aquino in 1977 based on these and earlier issues with the indictment, trial, and conviction,-on January 19, his last full day in office. The decision was supported by a unanimous vote in both houses of the California State Legislature, by the national Japanese American Citizens League, and by S. I. Hayakawa, then a United States Senator from California. The pardon restored her U.S. citizenship, which had been abrogated as a result of her conviction._ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iva_Toguri_D%27Aquino
Just watch the Amazon Prime movie of Axis Sally with Al Pacino playing the role of defense counsel. Both her and Tokyo Rose were victims of circumstances. Sure they could have refused to accept their assignments but where would that leave them? In an internment camp?
Tokyo Rose and Axis Sally . ended up in america lived a life . but Lord Haw Haw aka William Joyce was hung . i guess if he was american he would of survived too
I don't know if it was this lady, but my step-dad identified the familiar voice as "Tokyko Rose"...eventually my stepdad took part in liberating the Philippines.......once before that, he was on a troop carrier heading for a smaller island and they were listening to a woman they knew as "Tokyo Rose" he told me that normally they'd laugh at her propaganda and just listen to the Big Band she played......OH BUT THIS TIME.......she said "Hey boys, it in the troop carrier (SHE NAMED THE SHIP'S NUMBER) of Company (SHE NAMED THEIR DIVISION, UNIT, COMPANY).....We know exactly where you're heading (AND SHE SAID THE NAME OF THE ISLAND)....Well, we have a welcoming party for you....so I hope you kissed your wives and your girlfriends goodbye....you're NEVER going to see them again!" -------It turned out to be a bluff....There were no Imperial Japanese forces on that island at all.but that IS a PSYCH OP you would only do on an enemy!!!!! I don't know if it was her but it was a woman who spoke perfect North American English....... Traitor or no????? YOU DECIDE!!!!
My grandfather, who was in Alaska during WW2 said one of the women (there were several “Tokyo Roses”) said “How are you boys in the Aleutians doing putting out that fire we started?” He said it creeped them out because they actually had put out a fire earlier that day.
Sounds more likely he heard Manila Rose, Myrtle Liston, on Japanese controlled Radio Manila. She really had a sexy voice and was into demoralizing American troops. Her dad was American, she lived in the US after the war and she walked. Toguri had anything but a sexy seductive voice. Much of the Tokyo Rose legend was based on Manila Rose.
No, not treason. Walter Winchell accused Truman of being soft on traitors. Truman's attorney general Tom Clark made a traitor out of her, truth be damned.
I've been living in U.S for 41 years and still going strong,I was 14 years old when I came to this land.....even though I am proud to say I earned my u.s citizen in year 0f 2000,United States can not help of being Prejudice.....America was born being racist, rape, murder and Prejudice of Outsiders,which means anyone who is not eastern European descent will be looked in a different way..check your history book.... this is my first time seeing this footage and I do thank you very much for allowing me to watch this clip about Orphan Annie/ Tokyo Rose..
No. Your facts are totally wrong. Americans are not the vile racist people you describe. You don’t believe that yourself even. If you did, you wouldn’t have come here and wouldn’t have become a citizen yourself.
@@poppabear9279 I became a citizen because of the benefit at my old age... (Social security and the Medicare)... you can go up and down with sideways but the fact remains that America is hateful towards outsiders... Read books, it's good for you... Now go ahead waves the prison stripes that you call a flag, even President Bush senior said it's okay to burn it.... Lol One heck of a patriotic president... 🤪

Rest in peace, Iva.
Actually Tokyo Rose broadcast did the opposite effect to soldiers, it gave them unintentional amusement from the fighting
Japan: Tokyo Rose will strike fear into the Americans!
Americans: Uncontrollable laughter
You do what you got to do to live
They effectively robbed her of the last of her childbearing years. Pretty sad & cruel really.
I can’t imagine being placed into her position. She was basically a POW.
RIP 🌹🕊️

Jane Fonda shoulda done 20 years, by the logic of this case.
Japan: Making weebs out of Americans since 1944.
the background of mic is war crime flag symbol. I feel the heat ...
Where the birthmark/mole go above her lip?
Makeup?
Doctors remove moles all the time. Maybe they removed it for fear of skin cancer or something.

I think Dan Carlin used your comment on his podcast called supernova in the east v
As Morley Safer said, army investigators scrutinized her scripts at war's end. I'll agree with them: no.
My grandfather, who was in Alaska during WW2 said one of the women (there were several “Tokyo Roses”) said “How are you boys in the Aleutians doing putting out that fire we started?” He said it creeped them out because they actually had put out a fire earlier that day.

Not ok! Never hold anyone by modern standards
Unbelievable, It's treason !

I love Asian women.
