While Robert K. Wilcox has an excellent bibliography he tries to portray Noguchi of early 1940s Hamgyong as "mad Dr. Strangelove" when it fact Noguchi's efforts were to develop Helmholtz coil focused cosmic ray muon catalyzed fusion of cryogenic deuterium fueled rocket powered gliders and airships to haul freight due to a lack of iron to not have rail transit. Matter of fact Luis Alvarez was only credited for muon catalyzed fusion a decade later when United Nations Peacekeepers had returned from ruins of Hamgyong so real issue is any time anyone tries to do alternate nuclear energy from isotopic fuels or x-rays on hafnium for aerospace there are a lot of hysterical reactionaries about "weapons proliferation".

People forget, at the time, it was believed that battleships were more important than carriers.WW2 is how we learned how devastating carriers really were.

My ears are burning! While the stories of executions of SS by Canadians are abundant, there is next to no real proof of it happening. Lots of these claims come from postwar memoirs of SS with no real evidence of it. I'm not saying it didn't happen but it was not widespread like many people claim. It would have been hard to cover it up if that was the case. Lots of SS were captured and interrogated for intelligence, especially well after their initial capture. Many went to POW camps and were questioned in connection to the war crimes trials. Lots of them survived well into old age.

Are you sure?? It's impossible the Japanese officers do not Obey Tokyo orders. The invasion of Manchuria was a long ago thought out plan by the Japanese government/leaders. Not by a small band of rogue officers. Colonel Seishirō Itagaki and Lieutenant Colonel Kanji Ishiwara were designated "fall guys' when the League of Nations reprimanded Japan for invading Manchuria. To cover up, the Japanese walked out of the League of Nations.

Ishiwara's writing on the events and countless others indicate he alongside Itagaki performed multiple actions not authorized by their superiors. Of course the Japanese had planned out the invasion of Manchuria, but they did not want it to break out in 1931. There are countless documented reports from Tokyo HQ demanding the actions be stopped, they even sent officials to talk down Ishiwara, but he was a cunning man and had gathered a formidable amount of junior officers to pressure superiors to go along with it.

@@fujiwaramichaelm6686 For Ishiwara its well documented in his theory about the final war and desire for Japan to prepare itself for a war with the United States by gaining resources in Manchuria and forming an alliance with China. Ishiwara spent all of 1937-1945 forming and participating in political factions to obtain a alliance with China. Look up "the concordia association"

Zang Xue-liang was the gilded honcho of a Chinese warlord clique extracting protection money from the ethnically mixed population of Manchuria. He owned his own air force. Let that sink in. Zang Xue-liang owned his own air force. Once the Japanese saved Manchuria from his rapacity, they had cut his main source of income. Zhang Xue-liang is a Chinese traitor, a “hanjian (漢奸). He was in it only for self-serving motives and self-promotion. He started the Pacific War. The events you are describing took place in 1931. In December 1936, an exasperated Zhang Xue-liang abducted Chiang Kai-shek in Xi’an to deliver him to the Chinese communists. Chiang had been ruthlessly hounding the Chinese communists, culling their membership since 1927. In his single cell Chinese brain, Zhang expected the communists to summarily dispose of their nemesis Chiang Kai-shek, leaving the way for him to become the Chinese figurehead that western powers would ply with interested aid. But the communists had other plans. Or rather, their mentor, Joseph Stalin in Moscw had other plans. He needed newly baptized Chiang Kai-shek to help him pit fiercely anti-communist, Christianization-averse Japan against Christian America. Chiang returned from his X’an sojourn unscathed but with a mission. And Chiang’s mission was to provide Chinese martyrs for the cause of the China lobby in Washington. While he procrastinated, a posse of American communists fell on Yan’an. Philip Jaffe, Thomas Arthur Bisson, Herbert Norman, Owen Lattimore, Agnes Smedley, Edgar Snow's wife, etc., fellow travelers and members of the Rothchild-funded Institute of Pacific Relations were on hand at Yan’an in spring of 1937, telling to Mao, Chou and Zhu De that the spigot of American aid would open full bore once Chiang Kai-Shek had attacked the Japanese in China. Egged on by the Chinese communists who were in Stalin's hand, Chiang knew since Xi’an that he was to attack the Japanese. Chiang delayed seven months redirecting his German-trained and equipped elite divisions against the Japanese. Japanese forces were lawfully garrisoned in China since the Eight Nations Expedition had quelled the Boxers Rebellion. The Japanese in China were a mere skin disease whime the communists were a cancer, Chiang had quipped; Having agonized over the pros and cons of relenting on its anti-communist hunt to shift the thrust of its German advisors-trained elite divisions on the Japanese in China, Chiang eventually laid siege and attacked the Japanese concession of Shanghai in mid-August 1937. The Japanese did not attack. Chiang attacked a Japanese civilian population. That is how the War in China, the first chapter of THE RAPE OF JAPAN was set in motion. We believed the always aggrieved, whining Chinese, or we pretended to do so because we could not tolerate that Japan could profit alone from the resources of Manchuria. We sided with the Chinese against the Japanese, under the pretext of defending China. We ended up carrying out the dreadful RAPE OF JAPAN (Chinese: 日本大屠殺)。 If we had sided with Japan in the Manchukuo question or if we had remained neutral, we would not be where we are today. Ninety years later, we face Chinese expansionism in the Western Pacific. From the Chinese perspective, Taiwan is an American Manchukuo in the making. We should learn from our past blunders and let the Ukrainians fend for themselves, if nothing else for the sake of the Ukrainian laobaixing. To spare further Ukrainian victims, “Wu wei” (無為, inaction) is the only way. But let's defend Taiwan as our Alamo 2.0, because Taiwan has actually been American since it ceased to be Japanese. Post-San Francisco Peace Treaty Taiwan was independence material. Chiang Kai-shek, having signed the UN charter for China on August 24, 1945, knew it. The Chinese nationalists that we unloaded on Japanese Taiwan and their nemesis in China both prevented the UN Charter-ordained independence of Taiwan. The Chinese dictatorship that we tolerated on non-Chinese Taiwan has always been our unreliable and reluctant Chinese auxiliary or agent on Taiwan, a mere ruse or (Chinese) flag operation during the prolonged, reluctant and concealed American occupation of Taiwan.
