When at school in the UK during the 1970s – we were falsely informed that there was something “special” about the Japanese (our former enemy) and this is why its economy was rapidly growing (we were also told to practice Japanese martial arts – aggessive arts used against our soldiers during WWII). All lies and manipulation. Japan was given free US money so that its oppressed people would not resort to a Socialist path. The US still pays for Japan to operate a completely “free” healthcare system – and for the same reason. The war in China lasted between 1931-1945 – with the US openly assisting the ruling Nationalist China from 1941 onwards. From 1928 onwards – the US assisted the Nationalists behind the scenes to attack the Communist Forces (which were supported by the USSR) wherever they formed in the Chinese hinterland. During 1941-1945 there was a loose truce between between the Communists and Nationalists – when US pilots volunteered (the “Flying Tigers”) to assist the Nationalist Forces. As the Americans and the Nationalists could not defeat the Imperial Japanese – the US requested that the Soviet Red Army enter into China and take-on the invader. The Soviet Red Army took around three–weeks to completely over-run and destroy the Imperial Japanese Forces in Manchuria. The Soviets then handed this vast liberated area over to the Communists – together with all the captured arms and industry. This was a pivotal boost to the Communist cause – with Mao Zedong then inflicting one defeat after another on the US-backed Nationalist Forces. This resulted in the US supporting the Nationalist invasion of Taiwan – an atrocity that many know nothing about.
