Introduction: Just as the so-called "civilized behavior needs barbaric means to shape", the outbreak of contradictions between countries usually leads to war, but war is harmful but not beneficial, not only causing huge economic losses, but also making hundreds of people live in the depths of the water, such as the two world wars in modern history, the weight of casualties is lamentable.
During World War II, the Japanese army committed numerous crimes, such as several massacres against our country, sweeping every village they went to, and then torturing innocent villagers to death. However, they were overwhelmed by the successive victories in the war and began to provoke incidents, such as the attack on Pearl Harbor and the attack on the American Philippine colonies and the British malaya colonies. In the Malaya-Singapore War, Japan won a major victory in just 7 days, and nearly 130,000 British and Australian troops became Japanese prisoners.
International conventions have always provided for "prisoner-of-war treatment," but Japan not only deprived them of their rights, but also brutalized them, with less than half of the more than 10,000 Australian troops surviving. However, what really stimulated the contradiction between Japan and Australia was the bombing of its Darwin Port in 1942, killing and injuring more than 600 people. The Australian army could not bear it any longer, and united with the United States to launch a crazy attack on it in 1943 and 1944.
Japan sent 200,000 troops in the face of the offensive, but it could not deal with the two armies at all, lost its combat effectiveness in the face of food and water and soil, and conceded defeat one after another. The Australian army was by no means soft on these prisoners of war, and they were all brutally killed, which was also an account for the comrades who had been humiliated. The Battle of "New Guinea" was the worst loss of the Japanese army in World War II, and only 10,000 of the 200,000 troops sent out survived in the end, almost completely destroyed, and the Australian army also became a nightmare for the Japanese army.
When Japan surrendered publicly in 1945, Australia was the only country to offer severe punishment to the Japanese emperor, and Australia also submitted the largest number of trial lists submitted by various countries, of which the grievances were clear at a glance.
