Why did Japan get a free pass for their crimes in WW2?

>demilitarization
They have a larger defense budget than Germany, about the same as France or the UK. And those European countries are only spending money on national defense at all so they can claim they're at least making an attempt at meeting their NATO obligations.

Hiroshima and Nagasaki

They weren't prosecuted as harshly as they should have been because the US government cut a deal with them, that if they gave us the results of the fucked up experiments they had been running we would give the units/people involved a free pass.
Saying that they got a "free pass" is wrong, though, many of them DID get prosecuted after the war. Unfortunately, not all of them.

The fact that we still call them "Japs" in most average conversations I have concerning Japanese should be enough

Its even worse with my Marine buddies, some of those guys still call them Nips and Tojos, I'm not saying we should police their language, all Im saying is that the Japs are still paying for what they did

Most of that defense budget is going to defraying the cost of American troop presence.It's not defense spending in an independent sense.

The only modern nation in the world to ever pay slavery reparations is Japan. The only western nation to ever pay slavery reparations is...Haiti, who were forced to compensate the slavemasters for their lost "property" when the slaves revolted and overthrew them.

Really gets those neurons firing.

Germany had quite free pass themselves. They allowed to exist as single state and rebuild and nto even give reparation to their victims beyond Jews.

They didn't.

Their fucking prime minister hung.
A lot of their generals like the stellar Tomoyuki Yamashita, hung.
The admiral who planned pearl harbor was gunned down while taking an inspection tour.
If you study the Pacific Theater, the Chinese, the Burmese & the Brits there, and the Philippinos were famously out for blood. Manila had a separate trial from the Tokyo trials and Manila's prison gallows were busy hanging Japanese NCOs and camp guards all the time. Chinese guerillas executed every retreating Japanese cunt they found, and the Brits in Burma hung almost every officer involved in the prison camps.

Only the meme Unit 731 didn't hang due to reasons. By and large, their level of asshurt isn't jew tier that they want to hunt down extremely retired officers, but don't mistake that the Nips got away.

Only reason why Japs don't have German Guilt is because East Asians are famous for not admitting mistakes that can cost them their pride. They're all the fucking same, even the "humble" Japs.

I always wondered what was in it for MacArthur...

Jap or nip isn't pejorative in the slightest on Veeky Forums for the most part.

The United States felt the need to consolidate a position in this region in prevision of the cold war. They quietly signed a treaty of mutual cooperation and security on 19/01/1960, which allowed Japan to militarise again—although it is legally banned from having an army and going to war, Japan has large “autodefense” forces with the size of the Italian and Spanish armies combined—and in exchange let the United States to use Japanese territory as an unsinkable aircraft carrier, both during the Korean war and the Vietnam war. This is the same reason the United States pushed for China to be integrated to the permanent members of the United Nations Security Council. They learnt the lesson and knew that a frustrated Japan wouldn't simply rise again as an empire, but also would certainly consider an alliance with Russia. This position probably played a major role in securing Asia during the cold war, but it's now eroding.

Why did he get free pass for his crimes? Why did western cucks let him build soviet empire?

It's simple, the chinese didn't control western media

>The United States felt the need to consolidate a position in this region in prevision of the cold war.

If not commbie bootlicker FDR, there would be no cold war.

Eroding how? Japan does have substantial economic ties to both Russia and China, but it is the closest US ally in East Asia.

The Japanese government is slowly getting to a revision of the 1947 constitution, and the sphere of influence the United States have in the region has been severed in the last decade. The election of Rodrigo Duterte saw a shift in the relation with Philippines, a key ally, while Thailand fell to Prayut Chan-o-cha following a coup d'état in 2014, also degrading the diplomacy between these two. Minor events of this fashion like the Hmong crisis in Laos, or the suspension of relations with Cambodia since 1997 also contributed to the degradation of the power the United States once had in South East Asia. Since the United States must simultaneously meet his engagements with China, South Korea and Japan, it's expected that he won't end well.

>Why did he get free pass
He didn't vaporized 200000 innocent civilians for shit and giggles

>free pass
>2 nukes
You know what to do

What did we do that was so wrong that none of our enemies hadn't done?

Answer that.

If we got a "free pass" for it then either our invaders realized their own hypocrisy or simply didn't care.

They killed a bunch of worthless commie slant-eyes, not precious white babies.

USFJ offsets were about 2 billion last year out of a defense budget of about 41 billion.

Japan just doesn't seem to get as much "bang for the buck" because they spend much more of it on their Navy, and their native equipment suffers from extremely high costs due to low production runs. The "booklet" for a Howa 89 puts the price per rifle (that the soldier is liable for if the equipment is written off due to gross negligence) at around 4-5 times that of an M16.

you mean, why don't westerners care? because they mostly killed asians. and they already got nuked twice.

They started it

the USA also tried to cover up many of the crimes because the Soviets were actually hanging every single japanese butcher they got their hands on even trying to pass off many of the atrocities as soviet propaganda

and its always worth mentioning that most of the japanese experiments were conducted so awfully (in regards to the scientific method) they produced virtually no viable data

Why do they use their own design instead of buying American or Korean weapons? Is it just nationalism or racism?

>What did we do that was so wrong that none of our enemies hadn't done?

Unit 731.

Ally

>demilitarization
Japan has one of the largest militaries in the world.

This. Jesus when will you fuckers realize the only reason you're so aware of the war crimes of the Germans is because of the Jews.

>Most of that defense budget is going to defraying the cost of American troop presence
Not at all. Most of that budget goes to pay for a large and advanced military.

Don't let weebs bait you

sauce?

They should be given one

The people in charge of Unit 741 were given amnesty by the US in exchange for the research data

*731

Beacuse the west doesnt give as much of a shit if the crimes are mostly to nonwsterners/nonwhites. It hits closer to home when its done to their own kind, i.e. europeans.

Japan's """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""Emperors"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" are not worthy of being paid attention to like the cucks they are.

What are you going to do? Have a trial for every single country person?

Zaibatsu

No Jews, one bow, two bombs.

Which part? America started the Pacific War.

America tested biological weapons on its own soldiers. It used biological weapons on the indians. Unite 731 was nothing new to the west.

tell me about nanking

>biological weapons on the indians
You mean something that happened literally 100 years before the geneva convention?
>unit 731 was nothing new to the west
Nothing on the scale or same level of brutality as unit 731 happened in the west, outside of maybe the shit that went on in concentration camps.
>america started the pacific war
ELL EM AY OH

Creating an economically powerful ally to project power into Asia from? Mac deserves props for his work in Japan.

>these are the people living in the asia's

Considering the constant back and forth between China/Korea and Japan. I don't really think they did.

Still handling things better than Turkey does with their shit.

>America started the Pacific War.
What did he mean by this?

2 nuclear bombs were punishment enough.

Seriously, you wouldn't wish that shit on your worst enemy. It's the most pathetic death you can die.

I guess no one except Churchill felt like continuing the war in order to try and stop the Soviets. After 6 years of war and a few million dead soldiers, people agreed to a status quo.

Can somebody post the response of burgers on social media about the Fukushima distaster

This. One doesn't have to be a /pol/fag to realise that the US and Western Europe valued Jewish lives much more highly then Chinese lives, and that there were far more prominent and powerful Jews in the West then there were Chinese.

>One doesn't have to be a /pol/fag to realise that the US and Western Europe valued Jewish lives much more highly then Chinese lives

That explains why US and Western Europe refused to take Jewish immigrants? You're pulling shit out of your ass. Most Americans didn't want Jews to come at the time because so many soviet spies were Jewish. They only feel bad now because they know the Holocaust happened after no one would take the Jews.

Give the sauce, you little shit

No, fucking no. It's not Jewish lives that were valued more than other lives, it's white European lives.

Japan has the seventh strongest military in the world, it's just called 'Home Defense Force'.

>hirohito isn't hung because of macarthur's weabooism
Hirohito wasn't hung because that would guarantee the war was going to fucking continue.

Cold war

>people agreed to a status quo.
Little propaganda and ameritards would happily go to war with soviets. Until then they bought great ally of USA - kind Uncle Joe and elected sovietophile four times for president. They would slurp any shit.
Still if only commie bootlicker in chief would agree with Churchill for opening second front from Balkans, there would be no need for prolonging the war.

They didn't. Only you weeb faggots in the west do. They're still hated in China and Korea.

Jews are the only ones that matter so who cares?

Their skin is yellow

Hirohito wasn't hung because it would have been a fucking disaster for the American occupation forces

Their leadership was prosecuted in military tribunals for war crimes, and many were executed after the war. What else do you want?
