Dietrich is a fucking pussy!  And a liar!  and I prove it!  So he can lick my balls!
Perhaps you might want to rephrase that...LOL.

Ha! Listen to ddd from his last show where he says in his life he has burned down houses and cars. Listen to the technical terms he uses about automobiles. @5:24:00. Sissy boys without a driver's license should not be talking about cars.

Dietrich and Moon can't wait to present Dietrich's revisionist raping of history with claims such as these, likely to be featured in chapters of their yet unpublished "book".



Note:

How Moon uses the name of the Treaty in a deceptive manner.
That Moon and Dietrich claim the treaty became effective on Hirohito's birthday when it was actually the day before and the nature of the treaty did not favor Japan.
That Moon suggests Macarthur took Japanese bribes designed to undermine his own authority during the occupation of Japan.

I bet they will not present any evidence for these claims.  If Moon publishes any of the crap we hear from them tonight, they will be a laughing stock or worse.

During the war the Japanese military had their Emperor pretty much under house arrest. The Emperor did not want war with the U.S. to begin with and encouraged his ministers to find a way to end it. This did not go well with the Japanese military that was under the delusion that they could defeat the U.S. and it was their destiny to control all of Asia.
During the occupation of Japan after their surrender to the Americans it was the military forces under McArthur  the Japanese military had to deal with on a day to day basis. The Emperor had no say whatsoever so there was no reason for the Japanese to give any sort of bribe to the Emperor for his cooperation. Dietrich is a lying piece of shit.

Gunner65

You are correct. When I was in college history we had to write a mid-term paper on Macarthur. We had a few choices but they all had to do with aspects of his military career at certain points and how they influenced outcomes for better or worse.

Since I had previously submitted a paper on the Japanese occupation of the Philippines and the mistreatment of Allied POWs, I chose to focus on Macarthur's involvement both before King surrendered to the Japs and afterward.  I remember being very critical of his involvement regarding the Philippines in the early stages of the war.  Later on, I researched the occupation of Japan under Macarthur.  At one time he had nearly 500,000 troops stationed there under his command.

He would "visit" the Emperor every six months or so.  He protected the Emperor from prosecution and did many other things I disagreed with. I have never found any accusations that he took bribes on behalf of the Emperor!  What Dietrich and Moon are doing is bullshit.  My guess is that Moon is not actually researching any of this himself and is simply parroting Dietrich's claims. 

We will have a better idea after tonight.  But I think this is all a load of bullshit in an attempt to substantiate Dietrich's claim the Japs won the war etc. 

The Treaty of San Francisco signified the end to the Allied occupation of Japan, NOT an end to hostilities.  Japan's unconditional surrender in 1945 was the end of that.

Correction. McArthur did not accept any bribes from the Japanese. What for ? He had nothing to gain and everything to lose by accepting bribes and if discovered he would be seen as a traitor.
He could have had the Emperor executed if the President of the United States gave the O.K. and most Americans wanted to see Hirohito hanged for crimes against humanity. The reason the emperor was spared was so that the Japanese would not resist the occupation and it was also part of the backroom deal that was made to get the Japanese to surrender "unconditionally" . The Japanese populace still regarded the Emperor as divine and saw themselves racially superior to all others in the world. The Japanese military wanted to kill their emperor for wanting to surrender to the Americans but even they saw the hopelessness of their situation and decided to accept the shame of defeat. Some of their officers committed suicide.

Gunner65

That is why Macarthur blamed much of the Japanese militarism and war crimes etc on Hideki Tojo.  Tojo was the one who wanted a "preventive war" against the US as Dietrich claims actually happened.

"As the Japanese went from victory to victory, Tojo and the rest of the Japanese elite were gripped by what the Japanese called "victory disease" as the entire elite was caught up in a state of hubris, believing Japan was invincible and the war was as good as won.By May 1942, Tojo approved a set of "non-negotiable" demands to be presented once the Allies sued for peace that allowed Japan to keep everything it already conquered while assuming possession of considerably more. Under such demands, Japan would assume control of the following territories: the British Crown colonies of India and Honduras well as the British dominions of Australia, Australian New Guinea, Ceylon, New Zealand, British Columbia and the Yukon Territory the American state of Washington, Alaska and Hawaii most of Latin America including Ecuador, Colombia, Panama, El Salvador, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti and the rest of the West Indies.

Additionally, Tojo wanted all of China to be under the rule of the puppet Wang Jingwei, planned to buy Macau and East Timor from Portugal and to create new puppet kingdoms in Burma, Cambodia, Vietnam, Laos, Thailand and Malaya.[64] As the Burmese had proved to be enthusiastic collaborators in the "New Order in Asia", the new Burmese kingdom would be allowed to annex much of north-east India as a reward.[65] The Navy for its part demanded that Japan take New Caledonia, Fiji, and Samoa."

Yes that is correct. Tojo was a sadistic little bastard. He made a convenient scapegoat to take most of the blame. But I wished they would have tried Hirohito later and had him executed.

Gunner65

Tojo was sentenced to death on November 12, 1948, and executed by hanging 41 days later on December 23, 1948, a week before his 64th birthday. Before his execution, he gave his military ribbons to one of his guards; they are on display at the National Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola, Florida.[111] In his final statement, he apologized for the atrocities committed by the Japanese military and urged the American military to show compassion toward the Japanese people, who had suffered devastating air attacks and the two atomic bombings.[112]

Historians Herbert P. Bix and John W. Dower criticize the work done by General MacArthur and his staff to exonerate Emperor Hirohito and all members of the imperial family from criminal prosecutions. According to them, MacArthur and Brigadier General Bonner Fellers worked to protect the Emperor and shift ultimate responsibility to Tojo.[113][114][115]

According to the written report of Shūichi Mizota, interpreter for Admiral Mitsumasa Yonai, Fellers met the two men at his office on March 6, 1946, and told Yonai: "It would be most convenient if the Japanese side could prove to us that the Emperor is completely blameless. I think the forthcoming trials offer the best opportunity to do that. Tojo, in particular, should be made to bear all responsibility at this trial."[116][117]

The sustained intensity of this campaign to protect the Emperor was revealed when, in testifying before the tribunal on December 31, 1947, Tojo momentarily strayed from the agreed-upon line concerning imperial innocence and referred to the Emperor's ultimate authority. The American-led prosecution immediately arranged that he be secretly coached to recant this testimony. Ryūkichi Tanaka, a former general who testified at the trial and had close connections with chief prosecutor Joseph B. Keenan, was used as an intermediary to persuade Tojo to revise his testimony.[118]

- Gen Fellers was also Director of Psychological Warfare - "In the summer of 1943, Fellers left his job in the OSS, where he played a role in planning psychological warfare, and returned to the Southwest Pacific and resumed working for General MacArthur. Fellers later served as military secretary and the Chief of Psychological Operations under MacArthur."

ARTICLE HISTORY

A Nagoya University professor is working on a book about the life of the late U.S. Brig. Gen. Bonner Fellers, who played a major role in absolving Emperor Hirohito (known posthumously as Emperor Showa) of responsibility for Japan’s wartime aggression across Asia.

The movie “Emperor,” currently showing in domestic theaters, portrays Fellers, the main character, as a kind person who was sympathetic toward Japan. But Haruo Iguchi, a professor of international politics at Nagoya University’s Graduate School of Environmental Studies, described him as a “tremendously ambitious man who posed some danger to both Japanese and American governments.”

During World War II, Fellers served as military secretary for Gen. Douglas MacArthur, Supreme Commander of the Allied Powers, and traveled to Japan with him after its surrender in August 1945.

Tasked with investigating the Emperor’s war responsibility, Fellers conducted hearings on Japanese government officials and advised MacArthur to leave the Emperor in place, saying that it would be in the interest of the United States to use Hirohito’s charisma while occupying Japan.

In a memo to MacArthur, he wrote that the Emperor had no authority and that if he was convicted as a war criminal, a general uprising would be inevitable. The Emperor’s name was subsequently stricken from the list of men to be charged as war criminals.

It's like Darth Vader ( Tojo ) taking all the blame for his emperor Palpatine ( Hirohito ) during the trial held by the victorious Rebel Alliance...LOL.


It's the one movie Dietrich is afraid to watch because it is based on facts and the truth.

Well, Dietrich makes Hirohito to be a military genius whos biological warfare tactics brought America to surrender!  Tojo could never have hidden evidence of that! Perhaps Macarthur was very aware of what happened to the German population after surrender!  The Japanese certainly were!  And contrary to some accounts, the Japanese were not prepared to fight to the last man, woman and child with bamboo sticks!

Once the Soviets invaded Manchuria and the bombs dropped, it was all over. 



Too bad the Russians were not allowed to have their way with the arrogant Japanese. They had all manner of exquisite torments prepared for them....LOL.

Gunner65

I don't believe the Soviets were prepared for an invasion of Mainland Japan.  At least not on their own. And Stalin already had his hands full of blood in Europe.

Perhaps they wanted to divide Japan in half like the way Germany was divided. The Germans living under the Soviet regime did suffer a lot.

There weren't enough Japanese in Manchuria for the Soviets to torture.

No, that was not the case. Much of this was discussed in conferences at Yalta and Potsdam.

Stalin agreed to enter the fight against the Empire of Japan "in two or three months after Germany has surrendered and the war in Europe is terminated", and that as a result, the Soviets would take possession of Southern Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands, the port of Dalian would be internationalized, and the Soviet lease of Port Arthur would be restored, among other concessions.[16]
For the bombing of Japan, agreement was reached on basing American B-29s near the mouth of the Amur River in the Komsomolsk-Nikolaevsk area (not near Vladivostock as earlier proposed), though this did not eventuate. General Antonov also said that the Red Army would take the southern half of Sakhalin Island as one of its first objectives, and American assistance in the defence of Kamchatka would be desirable.

I liked the "Emperor" movie. Jones did a good job portraying McArthur. But I did not like all that pointless fixation on Fellers with that Japanese woman he had a relationship with in the past. That was a waste of time and did not add to the story. Just as the first Tora Tora Tora movie was far superior to that of Pearl Harbor.

Gunner65

I was a kid living at Schofield Barracks when scenes for Tora Tora Tora were being made.  It caused quite a scene as I remember. 

Gunner65

So this shit show begins with an attack on Sean David Morton?  From a report from last October!  See how Moon amuses Dietrich by attacking people Dietrich dislikes!  And the context for this is prisoners being let out of jail due to the virus?  WTF!

Gunner65

Dietrich has a hangover.  How the fuck do you drink all night when San Fran is on lockdown and all the fucking bars are closed?  And some freak Romanian dominatrix commented on Dietrich's dominatrix sex history!

WTF!

Gunner65

More shit about Sean David Morton with Peter Moon talking more shit. Kerry Cassidy...WTF

Gunner65

Peter Moon and Romanian history blah blah....Not what Moon posted as his topic for tonight earlier today!

Yeah, and too bad Hitler cheated the hangman's noose by committing suicide and having his body burned. Perhaps, in order for the allies to obtain a satisfactory closure to the end of the war, they can put that noose around Hitler's son's scrawny neck and drop him from a scaffold tall enough that when he comes to the end of his rope, it tears his ugly head off!

Gunner65

Moon has such a great talent for direction, that he got lost going from a castle to a hotel, got directions somehow and then went back to the castle?  Then there was a beggar...WTF!  ???

Gunner65

All this bullshit is prelude to Moon's next chapter for Dietrich's book? About how the Japs won the war and Hirohito gave bribes to Macarthur to get the USA to "sue for peace"  LOLOL!
