中国

History

On December 9, the Japanese troops launched a massive attack upon the city. On the 12th, the defending Chinese troops decided to retreat to the other side of the Yangtze River (Yangzi Jiang). On December 13, the 6th and 16th Divisions of the Japanese Army entered the city’s Zhongshan and Pacific Gates. In the afternoon, two Japanese Navy fleets arrived. In the following six weeks, the occupying forces engaged in an orgy of looting and mass execution which came to be known as the Nanking Massacre. Most experts agree that at least 300,000 Chinese died, and 20,000 women were raped. Some estimate the numbers to be much higher - 340,000 and 80,000 respectively. The Japanese government, to this day, maintains that the death toll is greatly exaggerated, and some politicians have even claimed that the Massacre itself is a fabrication.

なぜ現在，沢山日本人は掲示板にそのまま昔の二次大戦歴史を否定したいですか？底まで，右翼の考えがある日本人は過去の誤りに反省できませんか？？香港人とする私も米国国家図書館や英国国家図書館から，易く日本国の侵略した歴史を探せます。確かに，日本右翼組織の言論が全てのアジア諸国の国民に昔の傷を忘れさせますか？残念だ！
