The following is "the introduction," which is "the distorted news" Takayama Masayuki, who wrote 520 yen of Shincho libraries in the preceding chapter.
It is a book that people all of the must-read worldwide, not only the Japanese people.
In other words, this is truth itself, is the only genuine journalist in the world after the war, is a scholar, and is the book to rescue the world by right with the word of the jewelry of the human being who is a writer.
I was appointed as a correspondent in Los Angeles and was invited to a little home party in the early days.
There was a situation, the home territory of Hollywood, too, in Japan-U.S. journalist. The excellent members, such as the creating person concerned about the movie, the photographer, and the lawyer, stood in line.
Seeing that I was a newcomer, an American staff member from the lead organizer's side started talking to me.
He told us that he was of Jewish descent, had graduated from two universities, and was now working as a scenario selector.
"Is this the first time you have been stationed abroad?"
"No, it is a little in the Middle East.'
It was in Myanmar until recently, and it met Aung San Suu Kyi.
The husband of Briton, who preys on her, came by chance and heard a story, too.
I stopped in Bangkok and got caught up in a coup d'etat riot on the way back.
I told him that the army had also come out, and dozens of civilians had been killed.
By the coup of that Suchinda general, in him who took the prime minister's seat, the citizen developed uncommonly large-scale democratization demonstration and resists; it is the case which drove Suchinda into the retreat.
Then, do him, "is it Asia" and the countenance which seems serious, "Japan is the past, by the various countries in Asia, it did an evil thing," it suggested.
No, mainly, When I deny it, he is quite surprised.
He looked at me with a deer in headlights and said, "No, Japan did terrible things. Japan colonized Korea."
No, you're not, I deny again.
As for Korea, it was not a colony (colonize).
It was annexation.
It is the same as the annexation when the U.S. obtains Texas.
And the reign of Japan went well.
At least Japan has not done anything so outrageous that the U.S., which colonized the Philippines, has anything to say about it.
He retorts to become a bright red.
"The United States was allowed to enlightenment the Philippines (civilize). It was a good thing. However, Japan or not did not only be cruel in Korea."
But is your word, and I answer back.
The U.S. tricked the Filipinos into fighting against suzerain Spain because it would give them independence.
The U.S. reneged on its promise when Spain surrendered and turned the Philippines into an American colony.
When the angry Filipinos resisted, the U.S. sent troops and began slaughtering them.
The U.S. also captured their families, set their homes on fire, and tortured them to death.
The Spanish-American War began in April 1898, and Spain surrendered in August, but the war somehow lasted four years, ending in 1902.
The war lasted four years, ending in 1902 when the Filipinos' resistance was crushed, and the U.S. acknowledged its colonial rule.
Moreover, during the four years of the war, the U.S. military killed "200,000 Filipinos," including all the inhabitants of the two islands of Leyte and Samar, according to Senate hearing transcripts.
Korea was different.
Theodore Roosevelt clearly stated that Chosun was no longer a nation, closed the U.S. diplomatic mission, and left it to Japan.
The Japanese built schools, electricity, industry, and true civilization, or as you call it, opening up.
When I explain this to him, he barks, "It is true that Japan did terrible things to Korea as a colony," and says, "I'm not going to talk about it anymore.
I was a little disgusted, so I asked him, "If Japan turned Korea into a colony like the Philippines, and you still say that Japan is to blame, then perhaps you thought that Japan should not be allowed to have a colony? Do you think it is a privilege of white descent to have colonies?" So I showered questions on him.
He turned red in the face, threw out a four-letter word, and went away.
