#1 "...and call for the country's revival the rising sun again as a military power."

Good. Let them duke it out with the PRC.

#2 Always buried is the Sack of Manila. When war started in 1941, the American territory of the Philippines was already scheduled for independence. The Japanese occupied the place through 1945. The atrocity of Manila is ignored by the usual suspects who scream Hiroshima like waving a bloody flag. The Japanese just used bullet, bayonet and barbed wire to kill about as many. There is an old saying in warfare, those who give no quarter should expect none themselves.

#3 Hidden Horrors(1996) by Yuki Tanaka; "This landmark book documents little-known wartime Japanese atrocities during World War II. Yuki Tanaka’s case studies, still remarkably original and significant, include cannibalism; the slaughter and starvation of prisoners of war; the rape, enforced prostitution, and murder of noncombatants; and biological warfare experiments."
Grisly and mind-boggling...
