The Japanese just did sick disgusting [BLEEP] because they thought it was funny.

Some of the German research was useful.  A lot of it was not.  A lot of it was just as sick and disgusting as what the Japanese did.

I'm just saying we villify the nazis, as we should, but everyone in the west forgets how truly horrific the Japanese were. Nazis hated the Jews the Japanese hated literally everyone

even the Nazis respected POWs (though less at the end of the war) whereas you were going to be tortured if caught by the Japanese and there was a 30% chance you were going to die. German POWs had about a 3% chance of dying and the majority of those were people escaping.

Hell that POW camp "the great escape" was based on had a concert hall and they were allowed to play instruments
