I THINK COOLCAT IS COOL BUT COOLCAT HAS NO KNOWLEDGE AT ALL ABOUT ASIAN HISTORY LET ALONE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN JAPAN AND CHINA. WE SHOULD APPOINT A NEW EDITOR TO THIS SECTION. COOLCAT COULD BE AN EXCELLENT EDITOR FOR THE CATS PAGE BUT DEFINITELY NOT FOR THE JAPANESE WAR ATROCITIES PAGE. BOTH AUSTRALIAN BRITISH CHINESE KOREAN HONG KONG SINGAPORE MALAYSIAN TEXTBOOKS HAVE DOCUMENTED MANY UNIMAGINABLE WAR ATROCITIES INCLUDING BAYONNETING PREGNANT MOTHERS TO FIND OUT THE GENDER OF THE CHILD DURING GAMBLING BETS, FORCING CHINESE PEASANTS TO DIG TRENCHES AND THEN BURY EACH OTHER ALIVE. The facts and photographs are too grotesque to recount and seem very fantastic to people who have no knowledge of wars or of war history. WE SORELY NEED AN EAST ASIAN STUDIES PROFESSOR AS AN EDITOR, PREFERABLY FIVE FROM CHINA, SEVERAL FROM U.S., BRITISH, KOREAN, HONG KONG, MALAYSIA, SINGAPORE, JAPAN NATIONALIST, JAPAN NON-NATIONALIST SOURCES. IN ADDITION, BEFORE WWII THE JAPANESE IMPERIAL ARMY INVENTED A SYSTEM WHERE THEY EXPORTED JAPANESE GIRLS TO WORK AS IMPERIAL BROTHELS TO SERVE THE JAPANESE ARMY, THESE GIRLS WERE REPLACED BY COMFORT WOMEN FROM KOREA AND CHINA AS THE WAR WAGED ON. THERE HAVE BEEN TONS OF BOOKS AND DOCUMENTARIES ON THIS SUBJECT BUT NOT TRANSLATED IN ENGLISH SINCE THE WEST DOES NOT CARE ABOUT ATROCITIES IN ASIA, THEY ARE MORE EURO AND AMERICANO-CENTRIC, FOCUSING ON THE HOLOCAUST, WHICH IS VERY UNDERSTABLE. HOWEVER INCREDULOUS THEY ARE TO WESTERN READERS, THESE ACCOUNTS ARE HISTORICALLY DOCUMENTED FACTs, NOT POV and SHOULD NOT BE EDITED OUT. PLEASE LET US APPOINT NEW EDITORS FOR THIS VERY SENSITIVE SECTION. COOLCAT THANKS FOR YOUR HELP BUT BYE
