As everyone knows, the Second World War was provoked by the fascist countries headed by Germany, Italy, and Japan, and brought deep disasters to the people of the world. And the harm that Japan has brought to the mainland can never be forgotten. After the war, both Germany and Italy reflected on their own actions, but Japan has been trying to cover up the historical truth of its invasion of China. And the biggest source of this is that their spiritual leaders are not sanctioned.
As we all know, Japanese youth have always admired the spirit of Bushido during World War II. And the core of their so-called Bushido spirit is to be loyal to the emperor. Therefore, when the Japanese army is defeated on the battlefield, they will not hesitate to commit suicide by cutting their stomachs. In their view, caesarean section was not death, but a way for them to apologize to the emperor. When Japan sent the news of "unconditional surrender" to the world, many overseas Japanese troops believed that they had failed the emperor and gave their lives to their emperor.
The soldier failed the emperor and chose to apologize for the crime. The emperor failed the Japanese people, so why didn't he cut his abdomen? With this question in mind, MacArthur, commander of the U.S. Far East Army, came to Japan. MacArthur was in Japan on two missions, one to carry out military occupation of Japan and the other to rebuild Japan. In addition to repairing the destroyed buildings, rebuilding Japan also requires the japanese people's thinking back to normal levels. Therefore, the most important thing MacArthur had to do was to pull the emperor down from the altar.
In order to retain his position, the Japanese emperor also deliberately courted the new "Emperor Taishang" of Japan. To show his sincerity, Emperor Hirohito personally visited MacArthur at the U.S. Embassy in Japan. This visit was originally carried out secretly by Emperor Hirohito. As soon as he entered the door, MacArthur asked him to stand in the middle of the hall. After a while, MacArthur's videographer took a photo of the two and published it all over Japan. As the Japanese people looked at the emperor in the photo, their faith began to crumbling.
While chatting with Hirohito, MacArthur also teased: "Japan was defeated, why didn't Your Majesty cut his abdomen?" Emperor Hirohito calmly stated that he had tried his best to avoid and prevent the war before the war, but he was really "powerless." So his subtext is, the war is not my fault, why should I commit suicide? It can be said that his answer is really shameless to the extreme. And it is precisely because of the asylum of the United States that Hirohito has not been sanctioned.
