Japan’s WWII War Crimes: Why Are They Forgotten? 🇯🇵

About this video

The Japanese atrocities in WWII were every bit as bad as the Nazis. Why did they get forgotten?

► Great book .... “Unbroken” – The story of Louis Zamperini: https://amzn.to/4lITsDs

Corrections:
03:47 – The 4% Allied POW death rate under Nazis is misleading. That applies to Americans and Allies on the Western front, but Soviet POWs on the Eastern front were magnitudes higher at around 50%. (Thanks, @nutella7891 )
