    The fact that Japan aren't called out on an international level for censoring the crimes of their ancestors is unacceptable. They can't just pretend it didn't happen, and trying to hide the truth makes it seem like they don't actually condemn the crimes their nation committed in the past.

    My grandma was in a Japanese concentration camp in the Philippines as a young girl. She never likes to talk about it. She said she even learned to speak fluent Japanese since she was held captive for so long. She ran away from the camp when an officer asked her to light a cigarette for him she took that opportunity and ran away through a rice field as he shot at her with a gun. She was never shot and she made it out. That is the only thing she would tell me about this experience.

      In the business side, it's theorized that Japan attacked pearl harbor because although the US didn't participate actively in the war, they did refrain from trading with Japan, cutting off their food supplies. So, I suppose the cannibalism started then? Then they thought they couldn't go on and finally attacked the US, which turned out to be the worst thing they did cause you know they were bombed right after.

This put Japan in a hard place because it couldn't maintain its military and war effort without these materials which Japan had no way of making on their own. They decided then to attack and minimize the presence of the U.S. Navy in the Pacific whom they feared would work to disrupt the shipping lanes in the East China Sea that supplied Japan's growing empire with needed resources in the future as the war progressed.

    I come from Philippines and the great grandparents told me that the first Japanese to invade in 1941-1942 were generally well behaved. But from 1943 onwards as soldiers who fought in China arrived they were animals and killed indiscriminately.
    I think most of the barbaric behavior Japanese soldiers displayed were because of their experiences from mainland China. Which at the time was extremely undeveloped and over populated. Making the war there medieval.

But it all changed when the Japanese deploy the Chinese Soldiers to be stationed across the country. They commited all kinds of atrocity. Even after the Japanese retreat the chinese soldier remain in our country and joined the Malayan Communist party and continued to wreck havoc across the country.

      This is true. I'm also from the Philippines and my great great grand father always tell stories about the Japanese invaders during world war 2. He said that the first invaders are really honorable and have respect on everyone. But when 1943 came in most of the Japanese Soldiers that was sent are brutal and disgraceful. Sadly my great grandfather passed away 10 years ago but his stories are still with us and the horrors of world war 2.

    Meanwhile, the Japanese garison cut off at Rabaul ate better than most of the Japanese military elsewhere. Not from prisoners, but due to the fact that a lot of the personel had been gardners or fishermen in peacetime.

      I'm pretty sure it's because of Japan being isolated from the rest of the world for so long. I believe up until only the 1800s they kept people out and all their affairs were internal.
