Innocent, so innocent, so innocent that I want to send them all to see their Amaterasu.
Let's start with how war broke out. War is not something that a ruler can wage with one mouth, much less a matter of the hundreds of thousands of troops on the front line, especially between two countries. The ruler wants to start a war, the first step, to make a plan, the second step, to mobilize the masses.
Any war is inseparable from the support of the people, and the support rate is low. If you want to go to war, you have to expand your army, and these armies need weapons, you need resources, you need money... Everything has to be taken out of your pocket in this country. And you ordinary people, that is, a part of your pocket, the resources you take out, the money you take out, including the people who send troops, are all squeezed out of the people.
You've expanded your army, you're going to build weapons, do you need factories? There is no money to cover, cut out from the people. The factory building is built, and people are needed to build weapons, where do people come from? Or the common people. If you start a war, you will mobilize the strength of the whole country to support the war. The common people must take out the money to buy equipment and resources, they must save grain to support the front-line troops, and everything needed for war comes from the people.
If the people do not support war, the result is that the machine in your country cannot be opened. The people don't pay money, your supplies can't be supplied, the people don't enter the factories, your weapons can't be produced, the people don't take grain, and your front-line troops have to go hungry. War has an impact on all ordinary people, the needs of the people is to live a good life, the question is, why is it that a good life is not enough, to go to war?
Before going to war, the problem to be solved is how to get the people to support you in going to war.
This kind of thing is true even in modern times, the United States beat Iraq twice, the first time Iraq invaded Kuwait, the United States preached that Iraq endangered world security, we want to do it for Skywalker, the common people together: beat him! The second time, it was Saddam Hussein who endangered the safety of the world, and then the people were again: beat him! In Afghanistan, not to mention, 911 gave the United States a heavy blow, and The bushes and these people began: that base is hiding Afghanistan, and Afghanistan is an accomplice. Then the common people: beat him!
These countries, Such as Japan and Germany, were mobilized for a long time before the war began. Hitler's speech was to mobilize, incite hatred, and then envision a better future, and the common people listened: beat him French! In Japan, the emperor is their god and listens to the emperor. This kind of thing seems ridiculous, but Japan was such a superstitious country at that time, and to this day, many Japanese people are still superstitious. Then militaristic education was given to the common people from an early age, and when these people grew up, they would unswervingly support the war.
The status of The Emperor of Japan is very high, which is not the result of the Japanese Emperor's propaganda that he is a god, but the environment of Japan as a whole. Let's take a few movies and TV dramas as an example, first look at the march towards the republic, in which the Japanese emperor wants to buy the Yoshino, to defeat the Daimizu Division, and decides to eat once a day. As a result, the Japanese people beat chicken blood and shouted: The emperor's hunger is simply our shame..... Then the crazy donation, there is a Japanese girl in it, in order to support Japan to go to war, what did she do? Sell yourself and then donate. Then write to her young plum bamboo horse: You don't get my virginity, then you go and take it.... hehe
The problem explained here is that the Japanese emperor said what the people had to do, and they did it willingly, and it was the whole people. This support is difficult to change.
By the time of World War II, the Japanese supported the start of the war, just like crazy. There used to be a Japanese woman, the night before her husband left, in order to let her husband have no worries, he actually committed suicide, when the Japanese wrote a special book this so-called feat. This is a very typical example, and this is the result of the Japanese supporting the war.
The devil came inside, and Hanaya Kosaburo was rumored to have died in battle, and as a result, he suddenly became an idol of the whole village. The soldiers in the same unit were all fellow villagers in the same village, and the father of the family wrote to them to learn from Hanaya Kosaburo and give his son a stinky scolding. This was not an isolated case at the time, but a universal phenomenon. This shows the support of the Japanese people for the war, and they are encouraging their children to kill people on the battlefield. They killed people, went home for a stinky meal, and then the father of the staff made the staff: Son, great hero, did not live up to the emperor...
If you think that some ordinary Japanese people are innocent of being bombed, think about it, whose sons, whose husbands, and whose fathers are the people who have raised the butcher's knife in our country. At a glance, it is all Japanese people. Without their support, this battle could not be fought, and after the atomic bomb was hit, no one should think that he had been wronged, and all of them deserved it.
