QuoteReplyTopic: Japanese troops raping Black women ( Africa ect ) Posted: 22-Jan-2013 at 10:13
There was a documentary recently about the Japanese rape of Nanking. Chinese babies were skewered on bayonets, old women and even little girls were raped, tortured and murdered by the Japs http://www.csee.umbc.edu/~kunliu1/Nanjing_Massacre.html
The rape of Nanking was an unprovoked attack on common people. The Japanese got some railway tracks under their control blown up by their own secret agents, blamed it on non-existant Chinese terrorists and used it as a pretext to savagely attack the Chinese people and invade their lands.
The league of nations was unable to prevent this atrocity or do anything about it and had to be wound up after this horrible event

The League went wrong after 1931 when it failed to stand up to Japanese aggression in Manchuria. Appeasement enabled Hitler to take over Czechoslovakia and Mussolini to invade Ethiopia
Nick, I think that the problem was the the League of Nations had no mandate to raise, equip, and deploy armed force to enforce its decisions. That's just a dim memory of something my high school history teacher told me, but I think it is correct. The U.N does have some muscle, provided using it gets approved, but it is dependent upon the member nations to pony up the force.
