Shiro Ishii – General

What Unit 731 (Note: It was not the only unit who committed war crimes and experiments on living human beings) did, is really really really an -indescribable- horror and not even animals would do what they did to human beings during their murderings (so called "biological and chemical warfare research") in Mandschuria (The last chinese emperor Pu Yi was such a blind, proud and pathetic figure who indirectly contributed to the extermination of his own people) and other locations throughout occupied China, such as Nanking).

Just read available literature about the history of this Unit. If you have strong nerves dare to see original photographs of their experiments on the "living object".

Even the evil german SS looks like an angel's club beside them. And that means something..Thanks wdbox for bringing this story to people's attention. These crimes must never be forgotten and must be always brought back to the surface, so they will be remembered as a warning for future generations.

And now comes the best about the bloody murder commander of Unit 731, Shiro Ishii, as described in the article. But it should be repeated again and again: After the war he was protected by the U.S. government and later he worked in the USA to continue his "research"! To make it short i will just quote Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiro_Ishii) now.

The info there is true:

"Immunity

Arrested by the American occupation authorities at the end of World War II, Ishii and Unit 731 leaders received immunity in 1946 from war-crimes prosecution before the Tokyo tribunal in exchange for germ warfare data based on human experimentation. On 6 May 1947, Douglas MacArthur wrote to Washington that "additional data, possibly some statements from Ishii probably can be obtained by informing Japanese involved that information will be retained in intelligence channels and will not be employed as 'War Crimes' evidence." The deal was concluded in 1948.

Ishii was never prosecuted for any war crimes. According to Richard Drayton, a Cambridge University history lecturer, Ishii later moved to Maryland where he conducted research into bio-weapons. But according to Ishii's daughter Harumi, he stayed in Japan, where he died of throat cancer at the age of 67."

Shame on the USA and the Sowjets (they protected their Unit 731 prisoners as well). This is a fact and must also be said because it belongs to this disgusting chapter of WW2 atrocities.
