#Truth about Tokyo Tribunal
While many Japanese were being hanged or sentenced to life in prison for POW abuse at the Class BC trials, horrific abuse was being carried out by Allied soldiers at war criminal camps around Japan. Although Sugamo was much better,
even the Class A defendants continued to be "mistreated" in a manner that would have resulted in felony charges if the same standards were applied as in the war crimes trials. The defendants were rarely allowed to get a good night's sleep.
From Aoi Shigemitsu's "Sugamo Diary,
"The old man found it unbearable to sleep under an electric light at night, with his head exposed to view from the corridor, and his head sticking out the entrance to the corridor where the wind came.
The corridors are always noisy to watch over the prisoners. Earlier, there was a sudden change in General Nagano's condition, and now Matsui is in critical condition. Those with weak respiratory organs and those suffering from neuralgia could become seriously ill
at a moment's notice. The war has not stopped. It is truly regrettable that the relationship between Japan and the United States should stray even slightly from the path of reconciliation, considering the state of the world.
The above image shows Osami Nagano (center), who died during the trial, and his defense attorneys Brannon and Hachiro Okuyama.
Correction: Mamoru Shigemitsu
(Not Aoi Shigemitsu).

#Truth about Japanese War Criminals:
About 1,000 Japanese were executed during the war crimes trials after the last war.
Why were so many Japanese executed?

Even among the Japanese people, there is a perception that these heinous and inhumane people got what they deserved, but the diary of convicted Chief Tetsuo Mizuno reveals the reality of the war crimes trials.

The above photo shows Sergeant Britton, who appears in the diary:
"April 8, 1947
I went out as usual for the fourth trial.
Saw the cherry blossoms at the Women's Study Institute and Gajoen.

Today, Ensign Britton's testimony begins.
He was formerly a sergeant, but since he was honorably captured, he was promoted two ranks to the rank of ensign.

The Allies claim that Japan invaded China.
However, the Japanese were not the only ones in the Shanghai Concession. There were Americans, British, French, etc..
In particular, the British and the Americans were making a killing dealing opium in China:
On the Allied side, they will always claim that Japan invaded Manchuria, but they are also wrong.

To put it shortly,
Manchuria was never China in the first place.
The Manchurian were never Chinese to begin with. The Manchurian conquered the Han Chinese nation and started the Qing Dynasty. The British conquered India, but can an independent India own the British?

#TokyoTribunal
An American defense lawyer had Colonel Bratton of the War Department's Intelligence Division testify, revealing that the U.S. side, including the president, had actually known in advance of the attack on Pearl Harbor,
a despicable US deception.

Shozo Murata wrote in his diary about the courtroom at that time, "The prosecutors did not utter a word, and the presiding judge again kept silent.
According to court records at this time, Colonel Bratton intercepted an order to destroy code books and documents addressed to the Japanese Embassy on December 3, which saw the documents being burned at the Japanese Embassy.
