Jeff Wyatt - 04/02/2026
It's good that someone is at last covering Japan's atrocities in China. The latest stance of the current right-wing Japanese government and Takaichi's comments about Taiwan, together with Japan's current military expansionist policies, are, equally as disturbing as the build up to ww2. As part of this series, you should cover Unit 731, and the terrible atrocities carried out behind its closed doors.
