ARE TO BEGIN THE RUINS IN JAPAN THAT HAVE REPORTED A NAME TO TURN SIXTY YEARS OF BURIED. Yet another SYNONYM INCUBATOR
Di Mattia Paolinelli
From the perspective of social the parable of the compassionate Nazi ranks first in the gallery of the society of terror, creating a system that would make it necessary to bring the horror of people believe more and more poor to be even richer for the fact to be German (or rather, Aryan) and non-Jewish, or African slaves. It 'the key word of the systematic Nazi nightmare of bureaucracy, the industry of the murder. But in terms of sheer violence, the Nazis had nothing new to teach man.
taste for human torture is well known and yet mysterious. It seems be innate in humans of any age but is all the more incomprehensible because the result of the will of a rational conscience and therefore can not be attributed to instinct. The torture and fear as tools of power are proof of this assumption. But why are associated with some distorted form of this useful? Maybe, but here the profit and satisfaction go hand in hand. The research shows the murderous Mengele and his associates, but not all.

The unattainable example Nazism represents a new touchstone of horror, but can not clear all the massacres carried out in his own century, those in the past or future. We should not in fact never allow the fire to hide our eyes what at first glance appears to be a flame, because even with that small outbreaks can be a new fire, with unpredictable conclusions.
that achieved by the Khmer Rouge is not a "minor horror", but simply another kind of horror. As well as that of the Gulag, like any war. And in this same area also includes what is still dark folds of History and Recent history, however. Summarized in two words: Unit 731.
before continuing warning: This article as well as in those where I described the horrors of Nazi invite all those who might be troubled by the description of those that are real atrocities do not continue reading.
-------------------------------------- --------------------------
Unit 731 (Nana-san-ichi butai) was the result of a secret program of research and development of the Imperial Japanese Army and was originally a section of the military police Kempeitai. The theater of operations of Unit 731 was represented by Manchuria, or from the territory conquered by the Japanese against China since 1932 and unofficially by name since the Second Sino-Japanese War (1937-1945).
What were the duties of Unit 731? In violation of the Geneva Protocol, the Japanese had every intention of continuing the use and testing of biological weapons and bacteriological and for this purpose it was necessary to the creation of a single undercover (water purification), or Unit 731 under the leadership of General Shiro Ishii (an expert bacteriologist) built from 1936 to 1945 throughout the infinite series of atrocities against men, women, children and babies Chinese (later also Mongols, Koreans as well as Russian prisoners, Americans and British).
Mainly activities of Unit 731 were concentrated in the study of the effects of infection (induced) in humans to test the effectiveness of bacteria as an instrument of aggression and of course to try to achieve effective treatment methods for Japanese soldiers.
In particular, all experiments on human subjects fell within the secret project called "Maruta". Here I report the list of project activities Maruta found on Wikipedia:
Prisoners of war were subjected to vivisection without anesthesia.
Vivisection was carried out on prisoners infected with various diseases. Scientists performing surgery on prisoners, removing organs to study the effects of diseases on the human body.
vivisection operations were performed while patients were still alive, because it was believed that the decomposition process would affect the results.
Among the people infected and subjected to vivisection were men, women, children, infants.
vivisection were also carried out on pregnant women, often those made by the same doctors.
experiments were carried out on the freezing and subsequent amputation or later thawing to analyze the effects of gangrene resulting without treatment.
experiments were carried out by excision of the stomach, liver, lungs or other organs.
were used to test grenades human targets at various distances and in different locations.
throwers were tested on humans.
Some people were tied to stakes and used as targets to test germ bombs, chemical and explosive.
The prisoners were infected with sera contaminated with pathogens, to study their effects.
To assess the impact of venereal disease in the absence of treatment, men and women prisoners were deliberately infected with syphilis and gonorrhea, and subsequently studied
The prisoners were infected with fleas in order to assess the feasibility of biological warfare.
parasites, infected clothing, and contaminated food were thrown at different targets. The resulting epidemics cholera, anthrax and bubonic plague was responsible for at least 400,000 deaths in China.
Unit 731 and its affiliated units (Unit 1644, Unit 100 ....) passed the test phase of biological weapons and carry out biological attacks against the Chinese people (both civilian , as soldiers) during the Second World War.
fleas infected with plague were reared in the installation of Unit 731 and 1644, with air and scattered over some areas inhabited by Chinese, as the coastal city of Ningbo in 1940 and the city in Changde 1941. All this produced an epidemic of bubonic plague that killed thousands of Chinese civilians.
Experiments with tularemia on Chinese civilians.
Some prisoners were hung upside down, to see how long it takes to die of asphyxiation.
Some prisoners were injected with horse urine in the kidneys.
To others he was prevented from eating and drinking to determine the time required before the sopraggiungesse starvation.
Other prisoners were placed in rooms where a vacuum was created, until his death.
Some experiments were carried out to define the relationship between temperature, frostbite and human survival.
Some prisoners were placed in a centrifuge, leading to death.
For other was injected with human blood, studying the effects of this action.
Some prisoners were irradiated with lethal doses of X-ray
were tested on human subjects, a number of chemical weapons in the gas chambers.
air bubbles were injected into the bloodstream of the prisoners to simulate embolism.
in sea water was injected to test whether other prisoners could be used as a substitute for saline.
As you can see, my call not to continue the reading was not simply a matter "of the label."
But now it's time to open another page of history dirty, because of the criminals who made up the 731 units suffered very little condemnation of any kind and in fact they were secretly guaranteed immunity from General Mac Arthur in exchange for the granting of the U.S. data of experiments on biological warfare (whose trial had started in the United States only in 1943).
But Do not blame always and only with the U.S. The Russians fared no better. Read more about the Soviet Union opened on Unity 731 using a process that theoretically should not be an excuse, but that ultimately proved to be such. Japanese camps were in fact die as a result of the experiments of Unit 731 also of the Russians (as well as civilian prisoners of war). At the end of the process, held in Khabarovsk in 1949 - some members of Unit 731 were convicted, but that was not the only point of interest. The process proved especially valuable in fact in the trial because of information that the Japanese gave to the purposes and on the experiments of Unit 731. Suffice it to say that soon after the Soviet Union could deploy its own anthrax weapon.
NOTE: For visualization ize the third part of "The Horror of Unit 731" must have access to YouTube. This is because of the extremely raw. Here is a link
But having said all this and explained what was minimally necessary to join the Unit 731's title.
In 2006 he returned to talk about Nana-san-ichi butai the revelations of Toyo Ishii, a former nurse who after sixty years decides to break his silence by telling a history that extends at least in theory-the-scene action of the Unit in Japan.
Ishii says The fact that it was forced, along with his colleagues-to bury corpses, bones and body parts in the military field hospital in the district of Shijuku shortly before U.S. troops arrive in Tokyo following the Japanese surrender on 15 August 1945.
Then the statements Ishii started an investigation that has also received the approval of the Japanese Ministry of Health, and in these days has triggered an intense work of digging in what was once was the site of the military hospital.
Despite this testimony, the police continues to support like-even in the event of finding bodies-there is no evidence at the time of the responsibility of Unit 731 in Japanese territory near the site as indicated by Ishii is located a cemetery already existed at the time of war.
At this point a question may arise spontaneously, because since 2006 he has waited until now to proceed with the excavations? The answer is simple and, fortunately, has nothing to do with attempts to cover-up or the side of caution by the police. All depended on the time necessary to relocate the houses that stood on the ground early test of bulldozers and excavators. The stake has nothing to benefit anyone: it is also the question of whether Japanese civilians have been unwitting victims of the barbarity of Unit 731. If so, would be further evidence of the need for that duty at the beginning of this article stated that invests all of us:
We must never allow the fire to hide our eyes that at first sight is a flame, because even with that small outbreak can be a new fire, with unpredictable conclusions.
