I guess Amanutjob isn't the only guy out there trying to rewrite history, there is almost as much evidence to support what happened in Nanjing as there is for Dachau or Auschwitz-Birkenau. How anyone can defend the people who did this strictly for national honor's sake is beyond me, lying about it to regain one's pride is almost as bad as the act itself.

Not every mass murdering vermin in WW2 was a Nazi.

Japan's wartime leaders, hanged as war criminals, were martyrs like Jesus Christ

A least he didn't compare them to The Beatles...

US Navy Admiral “Bull” Halsey: (after the attack) “Before we’re through with them the Japanese language will be spoken only in hell”.

The next military balance of power shift in Asia will see Japan serving as China’s bitch in a manner equal to or greater than Japan’s treatment of Chinese and Korean civilians during WWII.

Does anyone know of a reliable reason for Iris Chang’s suicide?

One of the eyewitnesses was a NAZI businessman, John Rabe:

http://www.amazon.com/Good-Man-Nanking-Diaries-John/dp/037540211X
Rabe was a German businessman who saved the lives of 250,000 Chinese during the infamous siege of Nanking. But Rabe was also a member of the Nazi party and a man whose motto was “Right or wrong-my country.”
When the Japanese air raids began over Nanking, where Rabe was regional director of the German industrial giant Siemens, Rabe’s wife, along with most foreigners, evacuated the city. But Rabe stayed to protect his Chinese staff and co-workers; as he put it, “I cannot bring myself for now to betray the trust these people have put in me.” As the magnitude of the Japanese assault became apparent, Rabe, along with American doctors and missionaries, created an International Committee whose purpose was to set up a Neutral Zone where Chinese civilians could take refuge. Six hundred of the poorest Chinese were soon living in Rabe’s own house, symbolically protected by an enormous canvas painted with a swastika; thousands more took shelter in the arbitrary Neutral Zone that Rabe continually begged the Japanese to respect. Lacking food and medical supplies, Rabe was mobilized to continue his good works by the atrocities he witnessed; his descriptions of the sadistic rapes, torture and slaughter perpetrated by Japanese soldiers are chillingly vivid.

I wonder how they blew his testimony off?

No one seems to care about the 80 million chinese murdered by Mao and his chicom thugs. no one was punished. No admissions were made. We trade with them as if nothing ever happened. Why?

Well to be fair we have Americans who all but worship the Nazis and Hitler, and some of them make movies, too.

The real irony is the Japan did so much damage to the nationalists in China that they helped pave the way for the ChiComms, who are now a major threat to Japan...

I guess Japan has their own Michael Moore, and a subset of the population equally hungry for his spew.
