Because a non-white race dared to upset the white colonialists status quo in Asia, the British resented the Japanese long after the war. Mr. Henry Scott-Stokes states that he held such a view as well before arriving in Japan as a foreign correspondent. Mr. Scott-Stokes writes of his transformation, of uncritical acceptance of the western colonialists version of the Greater East Asian War, the so-called Pacific War, to realization of its absolute vacuousness. [The Japanese], he states, were supposed to simply accept, without any criticism or opposition whatsoever, the noble wisdom of civilization [the verdicts of the Tokyo Trials].Mindless parroting of historical fabrications by modern Japanese suggests a loss of national consciousness, of what it means to be Japanese, as Yukio Mishima expressed in his discussions with Mr. Scott-Stokes. Japan lost her independence to America and is merely a protectorate and not a nation with her own culture and history. Japanese people need to take it upon themselves to change this situation. Mr. Stokes mother-in-law, however, wryly commented that todays Japanese are cowards, so it will take another 200 or 300 years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51959718150432,"sku":"NEW0761868097","price":47.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/fallacies-in-the-allied-nations-historical-perception-as-observed-by-a-british-journalist-0761868097","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
