"A number of Korean terrorists were confirmed to have taken advantage of the Great Kanto Earthquake to carry out subversive activities under orders from the Koryo (Korean) Communist Party and other from abroad"
"A vigilante caught a Korean wandering near the town's only drinking water supply and found him in possession of poison"
”A Korean man took advantage of the darkness of the night and detonated a bomb, killing and wounding many Japanese"
"A group of Koreans approached the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department planning to blow up the city, but were arrested shortly before the attack and had their bombs confiscated."
Despite there were so many crimes committed by Koreans, the police could not keep up with the situation because it was immediately after the Great Kanto Earthquake.
It led to the formation of vigilante groups to protect people, and 233 Koreans were murdered because they committed looting, rape, arson, and bombings.
You may remember the devastation of the Great East Japan Earthquake 10 years ago.
At that time, not a single Japanese committed robbery, arson, rape, murder.
Don't you think it is despicable for Koreans who committed robbery, arson, rape, bombing immediately after the Great Kanto Earthquake?
Richard Painter says that the Japanese who stood up to protect their families from robbery, arson, rape,bombing after the disaster, are evil.

@Vincredible__ Do you know African Samurai "Yasuke"? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yasuke
In the 1600's, Shogun Oda Nobunaga took over an African who was a servant of missionaries and made him an official samurai. Yasuke was part of Nobunaga's entourage and saw him through to his end.
@nick_kapur@Harvard_Law Meanwhile, South Korean Professors and Politicians running for mayor of Seoul and Busan South Korea, sent a written statement in support of Professor Ramseyer to Harvard University.
..However, in the 30 years since the comfort women issue was raised, not a single document has been presented to prove that Korean women were forcibly taken away by Japanese government officials』
@nick_kapur@Harvard_Law The South Korean scholars said,
"Foreigners who consider themselves conscientious are using this issue to complement their own ideology, which is hindering the normalization of Japan-South Korea relations".
Have you ever read John Dower's "War without mercy"?
But what is written here is also an understatement.
@Robdekoter@Tamalanumber1 Why is it not a "crime against humanity" of the U.S. to indiscriminately bomb residential areas with nuclear bombs and fire retardant bombs, killing a million non-combatants in 66 Japanese cities that had already lost their combat capabilities at the end of the Pacific War?
@Robdekoter@Tamalanumber1 How could the Allies, who vomited so violently at the Nazi Holocaust of the Jews, justify the atomic bombings and indiscriminate bombings of Japan?
Aside from the genocide of the Jews, racism is rarely the subject of World War II accounts.
