@@briancooper2112 i guess all those barbaric experiments did actually yield to some medical use, tough times

I also recommend "Factories of Death".

There's a very infamous and at times factual film called "The Men Behind The Sun" which is about Unit 731 and the horrors they took part in. Only for those with a very strong stomach, though, there's some pretty grotesque scenes. They don't pull punches about showing you things very much in line with what the real-life counterpart actually did.

@@dyveira Is it, by any chance, available on DVD in the United States?

The Japanese government remains very quiet about that to date.............. with the Americans using these war criminals for their own gain. Winner takes it all, eluding justice.

And be sure to let the video play until it stops. The "watch" isn't credited if one leaves early.

@domen kavčič l could be wrong but my understanding is that for a video to be counted as watched, and thus credit for payment, it has to play until the end and it stops itself.

No. I don't like clickbait.

Leaving a comment/engaging in chat doesn't hurt either!

And comment a lot.

Or would have shifted the targets to Tokyo and Osaka to decapitate the military, rather than the relatively unscathed Hiroshima and Nagasaki to better demonstrate the efficacy of the new weapons.

We only had 3 at the time.

It would have open the door for us to use chemical weapons

@@herbertsusmann986 Agreed

The American biological weapons program was far larger than the Japanese one The US military was mass-producing anthrax and the United States had huge supplies of mustard gas and 500,000 tons of captured German nerve gas Japan would do one biological attack and get hit with 100

All that was agenst rothshild banking kartel.

@@milanzdunic1940 Evidence and sources?

The city is where I live called Bookings. He is honorary citizen, his sword is in city hall on display and he is buried here as well. Good man.

@@loveofmangos001 I love this story...A little bit of reconciliation after the darkest period of World history...I had no idea he was buried there...

@8866panda nobody owes an apology to Japan for dropping two atom bombs and thus ending the war...Japanese imperialism started it, killed over 20 million in China and used Bacterial bombs, chemical and biological warfare on the Chinese as early as 1941...the Flying Tigers in Kunming experience biological warfare dropped on nearby cities The US like the Russians took Nazi scientists and Japanese scientists to further their weapons in the wake of a war that killed 60 million that the US tried like hell to stay out of the idea the US owes anybody an apology is the biggest most ignorant assumption I have ever seen.....not only do we not need to show remorse we need to understand after Saipan, Iwo , and Okinawa an invasion of the Japanese mainland would have cost millions of Japanese civilians lives...plus the fact the Soviets invaded with veteran blooded troops whom already committed mass rapes and atrocities on Berlin civilians it would have been a blood bath in the millions the Atom Bombs saved my grandfathers life as well as millions of Japanese lives nobody needs to show remorse except those that started WW2 Japan and Germany has Japan offered reparations to China and the 20 million innocents they killed?

There are lots of great KZfaq videos about the man and his family and the family still visits the town on a regular basis to this day.

The entire staff of Unit 731 should have been tried, for one thing.

The US wanted the dirty little secrets that came from inhuman experiments and felt they needed those despicable "scientists" alive.

@@scockery Well the medical science learned from this experiment was very valuable so there's one reason.

The Chinese haven’t forgotten anything.

The Japanese got off easy at the end of the war...they had an active nuke as well as a bio-chem program! No sympathy for them

Some of us are doing it for over a year.. lol

The shipyards at Hunters Point would have been a major target too.

Met Dr Frank Culbertson once, dating his daughter, he flew Wildcats/Hellcats in WW2. He flew under the Golden Gate Bridge when he came back from the Pacific. His son, Frank Culbertson Jr, was a commander on the space shuttle.

Key word here is (generally). People are so stupid that they got a nasty habit of shooting themselves in the foot time and time again.

@@thomasriggle6371 They are not stupid. They were just didnt witness first hand what happened there.

🤔 here we've got someone that apparently spends way too much time watching cartoons, comes 14 hours after the original conversation and says (no people are not stupid they didn't witness first hand what happened). 🤯🤯 you don't have to see first hand what happened you meathead. Its written down for you. You learn about what happened by reading history. You're the perfect example of why I said (people are so stupid). Maybe if you shut off the cartoons and pay attention you wouldn't be so clueless right now.

@@thomasriggle6371 Learning what happened and experiencing for yourself is two very different matter. You can read all the history book you want but it will not be the same with you actually getting in that situation. That is human nature. We learned mistakes from experience. But i guess i wont argue further since i am talking with a person that are using more emojis than my younger sister on a pretty serious conversation. Your inherent discrimination towards someone interest does not help this conversation going either.

@@nogisonoko5409 if a warning sticker on a lawnmower says not to stick your hands into moving blades I guess by your logic you're going to do it because (its human nature). You apparently can't learn a lesson from reading. If using emojis in your logic is considered childish because your little sister uses them what age group would you consider her older brother is when he watches cartoons. Funny though how you through your sister under the bus so fast.

Technically speaking, they held U.S. soil until 1945 because the Philippines had not yet gained independence.

They technically DID attack and invade the US, look up the Aleutian Islands campaign in Alaska and the Japanese occupation of Guam as well (they were absolutely HORRIFIC to the native Chamorros, 10% of the entire tribal population died from mistreatment by the time U.S. Marines liberated the island in 1944). The battle with Japan wasn't merely to the aid of honorable nations, it was personal in so many ways.

Japan would have still lost, all it would have ensured is that we would have had not one ounce of sympathy for hand-wringing about using the atomic bomb.

@@360Nomad What if Germany instead of building big capital ships had made another 100 or more subs they no doubt would have been able to blockade England into surrender. They almost did it at one time they had England down to one week of supplies, that with only 56 subs half of which where not suitable for Atlantic operations!! If that had happened and as long as the Japanese did not mess with us they could have done as they wished.

@@lambastepirate That still wouldn't solve their oil crisis.

@@360Nomad The dutch east indies had all the oil they needed and being allies with germany the oil would have been no problem!

@@lambastepirate Except you have to ship it across two oceans which are mostly controlled by the Allied Powers.

Me too! Mark's taught me so much about buried historical events that I thought it was just another story they didn't teach on school 🤣

In other words you'll eat up anything he tells you unless he admits he's lying. Don't worry bud, most sheep do the same thing. That's why you see all of the ass kissing going on in the comment section.

Found the Brit

There are probably still several things from WWII that we still haven’t been told about.

Hater in the house!!

With good reason too

Gave me a love! Now if I find out Felton is into RTJ I think I might be in love? My type of historical gangster proffeser!!! 👉👊

Stalin probably wouldn't have listened, he started to believe in his own cult of personality propaganda.

Not in the slightest, something about redacted items and paperclips.....

Holy cow! Sometimes the comments are greater than the shows! I wonder why they kept it under wraps? Might explain how the communists got the Bomb. Seems an FOIA request is in order. Surely the N. Koreans know about it.

You need to check this out. Unit 731 is probably the most disgusting thing I have ever encountered in my WWII studies. Joseph Mengele was an amateur in comparison.

@@billd.iniowa2263 Yes they are but they were able to escape their trials since US really want their results from such cruel human research.

Yeah, and asswelling would be painful for everyone.

Not really, Japan let plenty of bioweapons loose in China, and while they caused a serious amount of damage, they recovered.

And how Covid has changed the World, in just over one year.

@@petewood2350, we got lucky considering the types of pandemics we've had to face before, this is a pandemic with training wheels on. Just imagine how bad things would get with a more lethal virus, that is easily transmitted, say like an airborne ebola. You know, the crap Russia was playing around with in their bioweapon program, or what China plays around with now.

What would have happened if Japan had succeeded with that attack? To find out I suggest you Google anthrax bomb.

One of the most interesting books I have ever read was "The Making of the Atomic Bomb" by Richard Rhodes. Being an engineer, I was looking forward to a technical book. Instead, I found a story of social and political pressures that molded the environment of the '30s and '40s in which the A Bomb was developed and deployed. Not an easy read, but I am glad I read it. (And it did contain a wealth of technical info.)

Kind of reminds you of another country that did its best to rack up the number of civilian dead.

This would have been just one more set of war crimes they would have committed.

They convinced themselves they weren't fighting other people.

Japan only considered Japanese peoples worthy of honor. Everyone else were seen as inferior, even sub-human. Funny how reoccurring that theme is in warfare, from all sides

@@Milkmans_Son Except those they considered not to be people were giving them an extreme beat down at the time.

To be fair, we wanted all of our battleships to be able to fit through the Panama Canal, or we likely would have build some larger than we did.

Too bad focusing on large destroyers quickly became outdated.

@@garretth8224 I wonder how well an average destroyer would have done trying to sink an I-400 class sub.

They scrapped all the Sentoku class since they were afraid Soviet will copy the design.

Mark talks about that in his video on the balloon bombs.
