Things like, “in the 4000 years of history China has never invaded another country”, etc. Up until recently China was a series of kingdoms with different customs and languages, similarly with what Europe or India is. Through conquest those kingdoms became what now is China. Continuous wars made the China of today. One Kingdom (Country) invading another.

Anyway, my point is the way the documentary was created is amateurish, often by the use of loaded words. Things like “to their embarrassment the Japanese could not take Shanghai, so they brought reinforcements.” In another historical book it said “The Japanese advance was swift and devastating…capturing Shanghai in Nov’37 and Nanjing in Dec’37″.

Also “don’t do unto others as you would have them do to you” is associated to China (?!) when my Google search found it was said by Jesus (google Luke 6:31). There are many other examples.

This film is more of a nationalistic propaganda piece than a documentary to inform us of the tragedies and horror of war. See the map of China in the film? Well, it includes Tibet, Manchuria, Mongolia and Eastern Turkistan that were not part of China. As a fact Tibet was not conquered until 1959.

I stopped watching it when the commentary got in the way of what could have been a useful documentary. I’ve read of the Rape of Nanking and will hopefully find a documentary about it that’s done in a much better way.

I pity your ignorance and the way your government is lying to you just to make your life feel a little better.

If you think this is all a hoax or some bias message. I would suggest you to communicate with your elders who have lived in China through that time period (If you have any) and ask them about their experiences.

Remember, just because something happened in the past, that doesn’t mean we can’t look back on it and observe it’s cruelties and make judgment. War is terrible, but it doesn’t condone senseless brutality.

EDIT: I just looked at Saphire Diablo’s Twitter and came to the realization he/she is Japanese. Boy, it’s really sad that a modern Japanese citizen still has this mentality. Must you visit your own Auschwitz (Unit 731) to change your view?

now Im glad that hell exist so they can burn there
–its just my belifs for me its true and im happy i belive so … so the inocent ppl that they killed can watch them burning to +8 (infiny)

now to think that in the arabic words “kadafi” was doing the same thing (not exactly the same bec its just 33% of what jap did )to his -civillians –
and bachar al asad too …wooooooh when those vampires will stop their maddness

Absence of god? Oh really. Did you watch the documentary? Shinto is their religion and the Emperor was descended from their god, that makes him holy, religious and in fact makes them the opposite of godless.

I suppose we should thank GOD for finally putting a stop to this horrific genocide after hundreds of thousands were already murdered. Give me a break. Screw god.

Godless leaders? You’re deluding yourself. The most corrupt and evil governments were those who had God on their side, the fundamentalists and the zealots.

You don’t know what you’re talking about Sense4Many.
