#Unit 731

[babytumblehead]

I love when my special interest (video games) intersects with my other special interest (government experimentation programs)

People defend dropping the atomik bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by saying Japan committed war crimes in Nanjing or elsewhere, making it sound like the US did it in the name of justice for Koreans and Chinese, but then you learn afterwards the US pardoned the Japanese scientists who tortured and experimented on Chinese civilians in exchange for data. America did not care about civilians in East Asia, if they did they would've punished the war criminals instead of punishing all the civilians (including Koreans) that were in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The Empire of Japan killed and tortured up to half a million people in Northern China, conducting unbelievably horrific experiments as part of the Unit 731 operation, from 1937 to 1945. Victims included the infant children resulting from r*pes carried out by personnel on captives they referred to as "logs."

This is how the US handled the perpetrators after the war (from Wikipedia):

The list of things rich men will do and overlook to prevent communism from impacting their international investments is infinite.

If you ever think Fauci will face any judgement before his death…

Remember operation paper clip, well it wasn’t just the Germans who the US and Russia felt the “national security implications” warranted a pardon. Unit 731 operated out of Manchuria by the Japanese committed more heinous experiments on people than ever charged to any Nazi. It’s estimated that over 500,000 were killed during the experiments and all responsible including the leading scientist that thought it all up and conducted it, never faced a day in jail. Quite the contrary, they lived “quietly” in positions of power until their death.

The way Germany and Japan are treated these days when it comes to their pasts in WW2 is so interesting.

Just thinking because today germany has someone ask the poles today for forgiveness for what they did in the Warsaw uprising.

But recently Japan throws fits about comfort women statue's.

Hitler and the Nazis are always gonna be associated with Germany as much as beer and cars but Japan rebrands into the cute cartoon and video game 'living in 2050' country.

Both seem to have rising nationalist movements again but where doesn't these days

Inscription on memorial to the war dead at Kasuga Shrine, Shibayama, Chiba Prefecture, donated to the shrine by Ishii Shiro.

I think I might get the dubious honour of being the first person to post about this in English. The small town of Shibayama, literally next door to Tokyo's Narita Airport, under its former name of Kamo was the hometown of Ishii Shiro and his family, and during the war years he recruited a large number of people from the village to work at Unit 731 in the interests of maintaining loyalty and secrecy. Today little trace of that history remains, unsurprisingly, but at a small local Shinto shrine named Kasuga Shrine we find one piece of literal hard evidence, in this inscription on a memorial stone for war victims which clearly states it wad donated to the shrine by Ishii Shiro.

The big text reads 忠魂碑, approximately "for the consolation of the loyal spirits", and then in the smaller text on the left we clearly see 醫學博士石井四郎, "professor/doctor of medicine Ishii Shiro" (the first two characters are unsimplified forms of 医学, this was almost certainly erected long before the end of ww2.).

Photos are mine from when I went to have a look around immediately after arriving into Narita Airport one day.

Doctors lead by Shiro Ishii at Unit 731 of the Imperial Japanese Army perform experiments on a terrified prisoner after strapping him down, c. 1940

This week I focused on a secondary source. As a kid (and even now) nothing could scare me more than real life experiments which took place not too long ago. I did an ink piece on the Russian sleep experiment and a charcoal one on unit 731. I noticeably changed the Russian sleep figure, and made the room resemble mine. That's because these are my horrors, waking up at night with that thing staring back at me! As for the Japanese unit 731... there's no need to change anything. Its terrifying just the way it is. There are many videos about each I these events which are marked as 'historical ' and therefore only contain warnings about the information. These warnings did not stop me from continuing to watch the videos.

I loved ink, it's dark and dries fast. Looks smooth and flat. I'll definitely use it more. Charcoal however, was less pleasant. The messiness and feeling on the fingers didn't appeal to me at all! I'm happy I tried both though.

Reading ChiefHuntingBear's autobiographical profile on LinkedIn could change the way you think about humanity, how our bloodlines have degenerated and an imminent reset that may end all life on Earth. The main problem is a Master Race that sees others especially the 5-million people I am Chief to as commodities with no inherent rights that can be subjected to experiments to improve the health and longevity of those more important than us. Now only indigenous Terrapin Tribespeople with Rh-negative blood are tortured with ultrasound and microwave weapons that breakdown our personalities and bombard us with orders to submit as slaves; but, unless my men and I who were there when this planet was annihilated in 2030 can stop them, perpetrators at top secret C.I.A. Project Omniscience may institute the next top secret C.I.A Leviathan Project implanting transceivers into most of our brains and hundreds of millions of others that will be forced into slavery toiling all day in front of computer screens producing wealth we cannot benefit from for Oligarchs descended from Egyptian Pharaohs who will be the only ones able to relax, sleep, dream, become entrepreneurs, meet other people, have relationships, date, make love, live in mansions, have families, travel, go to symphonies and surf. The worst recent attempts to silence and stop me from saving my indigenous Terrapin Tribespeople with Rh-negative blood have been by Los Angeles Police Officer Brian Habel who poured acid on my legs and Pasadena Police Officers Yunon, C. Tucker and D.C. Jones who slammed my head into the sidewalk. People witness me being tortured in person and on the website inteLigaToR but look away. Mother God please take me to Monte Carlo in my home country of Monaco and from there stop anyone from interfering with my ability to travel whenever I want especially to Switzerland and Great Britain so I can find solutions to enable us indigenous Terrapin Tribespeople with Rh-negative blood to whom I am Chief to live in the ways we choose for ourselves .

The International Military Tribunal for the Far East-aka The Tokyo War Crimes Trial.

Most people will have heard of the Nuremberg Trials, but few have heard of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East (IMTFE), or Tokyo War Crimes Trial. The Nuremberg trials are often criticized because of the low number of convictions of Nazi War criminals. The conviction rate of International Military Tribunal for the Far East was even lower. Most surprisingly the Japanese Emperor,…

My no. 1 historical anti-favourite's graduation photo from Kyoto Imperial University, top of his class in the Faculty of Medicine.

Ishii Shiro wouldn't have known then that his speciality was going to be biological weapons - he graduated in 1920, and by all accounts he came up with the idea for a Japanese bioweapons program after reading about their prohibition in the Geneva Protocols of 1945. Sometimes I want to give this as a kind of really twisted "inspirational" story to anyone who graduates feeling like they still have no idea what they will do with their life.

When feeling despondent about the state of the world and the personality characteristics that are suited for success in our society, I've been known to pull up this photo on my phone and stare it down for a while. What was he thinking at the time, I wonder. How did he feel? Many of his classmates already noticed he was a nasty piece of work (sources say that he alienated most of them pretty quickly with his arrogant attitude), did he notice or care or even bother to give the matter thought? Did he ever worry that he might not make a success of himself, or did his array of possibly psychopathic personality traits extend to an unshakeable sense of self belief? (How the hell would it even feel to be graduating university with an unshakeable sense of self-belief?? I envy high functioning psychopaths a little sometimes, I'm not going to lie).

Not the most informative post on this occasion, but here he is! Look into his inscrutable expression and be annoyed/ mildly disturbed yourself.

This is actually one of the craziest things I have ever read and a horrible piece of history

Searching for performance art

Hi! This is my first post and is going to be my main post where I explain what I’m looking for but I will definitely post a short version

So:

I remember a video of a play where a few “military officials“ were in front of the stage while a doctor was experimenting on a patient. The all reacted a different way to the sounds from the doctor, like one was crying, one was ignoring it and they would kind of dancing/sway with the noises? Towards the end of it all a doctor came out of the patients stomach. So it was an art performance, sort of like the blue man group and I’m thinking it was supposed to be about Unit 731, where Japanese soldiers would experiment on Chinese soldiers and even their own military. Could completely be a different event though, I just know it’s referencing something. Plus it was completely live, like a ?host? talked to the “surgeon”. I doubt this was a performance in English. I want to say Japan because of their history but it was definitely around Asia. It didn’t took too old, I would be willing to say the 2000s, maybe even early 2010s. Thanks for reading all this, any help is welcomed!
