Yunnan-Burma Road in WW2 – Part 3/3: British betrayal + Japanese surrender’s 65th anniversary
THE JAPANESE FASCISTS’ DECLARATION CLEARLY UNMASKED THEIR HIGH AMBITIONS TO CONQUER THE WORLD. FROM BURMA, THEY PLANNED TO CONQUER INDIA AND TO LINK UP IN IRAN WITH THE GERMAN FASCISTS.
TALK ABOUT JAPANESE FASCISTS FREEING THE BRITISH COLONIES! JUST LIES! THEY WERE WORSE THAN BRITISH IMPERIALISTS!
ALL LOCAL PEOPLE HATED THE JAPANESE FASCISTS. THEY RAPED, LOOTED, AND TERRORIZED THE LOCAL PEOPLE, WHEREVER THEY WENT.
WITH THEIR PROPAGANDA MACHINE, THE BRITISH CLAIMED THEY DROVE AWAY THE JAPANESE IMPERIALISTS. THEY COVERED UP THEIR DEFEATS AND CLAIMED MORE THAN THEIR SHARE OF THE CREDIT.
ONE WAY WOULD BE TO JUST ASK THE JAPANESE IMPERIALISTS. THEY WOULD TELL YOU WHO REALLY DEFEATED THEM AND WHO THEY RESPECTED MOST, EVEN THOUGH AS ADVERSARIES.

“(composite video) The Chinese Expeditionary Force was… deployed during the Sino-Japanese War to aid the British Army in Burma (a British colony at the time) fight against Japanese Fascism. The purpose of the expeditionary force’s deployment was to guard the huge southwest backdoor of China. It became a typical symbol of the direct military cooperation between China and an ally nation…..
Burma’s position as a Southeast Asian peninsula gave the country a very significant strategic value. Its west border adjoins it to British India, and its north and northeast borders lead to Tibet and Yunnan of China. The Yunnan-Burma Highway was an important international access road of China; through this gateway, the Japanese army could threaten the China’s southwestern backdoor; hence, the stability or fall of Burma has very serious strategic implications to the allied nations of China and Britain. Following the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese had been able to quickly penetrate into Southeast Asia….. http://lov.vac.gov.tw/OverSeas/eng/Co…

Asia stops to remember end of World War II – Japanese prime minister apologizes to South Korea for wartime atrocities – From Nanjing — the site of a 1937 massacre by Japanese troops — to Tokyo’s Yasukuni Shrine, which has drawn outrage from Asia for honoring Class A war criminals, people prayed for the millions who died in war and expressed hopes for peace…..
In Seoul, President Lee Myung-bak, dressed in traditional robes, led a ceremony celebrating the liberation of the Korean peninsula from Japan’s 1910-45 colonial rule with the Aug. 15 surrender.
He also urged North Korea to abandon military provocations and make a “courageous change” toward peace. Relations with North Korea have nose-dived after the March sinking of a South Korean warship and Pyongyang’s firing last week of a barrage of artillery into South Korean waters.
In Tokyo, at a ceremony for the war dead, Prime Minister Naoto Kan reiterated his apology to South Korea for wartime atrocities, and this time offered his regret to all of Asia.
Last week, Kan offered “deep remorse” in an apology issued ahead of the 100th anniversary of the Japanese annexation of the Korean peninsula on Aug. 29, 1910.http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38717319/…
