[Leica] The Horror, The Horror

[bdcolen at earthlink.net (B. D. Colen)]

I may be wrong, Frank, but I recall seeing such films on the Hitler, uh
History Channel. But I believe you're right about the continued Japanese
refusal to acknowledge this chapter of history. But hey, when the U.S.
is talking about a war crimes prosecution because they've now determined
that one of the soldiers with that 'heroine' Jessica Lynch was executed
after being captured - at the same time there are reports that as many
as 76 Iraqis and Afghans have been killed - uh, died - in our custody,
why should we be surprised that the Japanese don't want to acknowledge
what they did in China?

I have all the recordings of the World at War and I do
not recall there being any of the Japanese invasion of
China in the 1930s included. I have read about these
atrocities and it seems they took place but are still
denied completely by Japan and are absent from
Japanese history books.
