  • This is not a bad doc film and I don't think it's as much propaganda as peoples' comments here would lead you to believe. As for the Japs, they were every bit as bad, if not worse, as they are portrayed here. Read “The Rape of Nanking” by Iris Chang if you want to go way beyond the atrocities you see in this movie. History is what it is. Don’t try and make it into a Sean-Penn-Thin-Red-Plot movie.

  • the chinese learn a very bloody lessons, they must be strong or else bastards peoples like Jap, Viet ,US will take all they have.

  • this history wat made china today

  • @kira4769 nope. this history plus the great leap forward and then the surge of manufacturing made china what it is today. not to mention the 4000 yrs before that.

  • Total propaganda but at least it was well-made propaganda.

    Just a few years later, America's ally was fighting against them in Korea; another war of "Good versus Evil".

  • @Mujangga whos evil?

  • This video is truelly reflect the true of the japanese ambition. Japanese all WAR CRIMINALS: rape innocient women, torture civilians, killing Chinese without any reason. If anyone is not believing it, just go to China. China still have evidence of survivors of unit 731 japense's experimental project. Japanese need document your history correctly in your history book and japanese don't ever DO this stupid acts again otherwise THERE WILL BE NO JAPANESE EXIST IN THE NEW WORLD.

  • China is a great country and is now coming in to her own,great respect to all those who suffered in this terrible conflict,God bless China and all her people,forget politics here as It was mandatory to defeat Japan,great upload here.

  • Man, I was hoping for a documentary about the second sino-japanese war and specifics about the conflict, not an old US propaganda film that was aimed to direct US public opinion against Japan.

  • @swindleUK no doubt they provided the allied countries with weapons, but think again, they did that for their own sake...if the germans were not stopped in europe, the war will extend to the american soil, in the end of the day they did what they did for saving their own asses

  • China and the U.S. were allies, so STFU people.

  • Hilarious that the narrator includes Moses as a historical marker. 

  • Nationalism is dangerous, but you can see why Chinese hold it. 

  • Lol now if the US knew that china would be communist... Hehe everything would be different in this film :)

  • Our elders told of the same cruelty of the same imperial occupiers in South East Asia. So much bloodshed & sorrow caused by a few madman that should not have been born into this world.

  • this is a lot like the battle of Russia

  • dont put any of this stuff on china. it was an american commentator. china didnt tell him to write this story. this is made out of films and evidence. china would of been fine if they wernt recognized for their works. but this movie brought it out. if you dont like it then dont comment or even not bother finishing the movie. what happend in china happend. dont deny it

  • Everything the Chinks said were bullshit, they claimed whole Asia as their land and many of them are Hitler admirer, about 40% of Chinks who born after 1980 i guess. While whole the mankind felt upset and anger for 9.11, the chinks clap their hand and happy for the misery of other race. To Chinks, all other race are apes, only them are human, i can't call them by any name but facist, they will be the next evil force which try to eliminate whole mankind civilization.

  • @Dragonswordman76 Apes? We all are but you're also a hypocrite not just an ape. Your racist thinking should've died with the Nazis.

  • @Dragonswordman76

    What are you? A mice? How much do you know about Asia to make a remark like this?

  • Is not 100%real, some bogus clips can be seen >.<

  • 0:15:48 I'm not sure if I understood it correctly "of the Great Wall it is been said that it is visible from the moon" , nice, now I know where this urban legend has its roots^^

  • @MrChitoast obviously it's quoted in the movie, the root has been there before this film. I reckon this legend might be several hundred years old.

  • 日本人太可惡! 中國還對以德報怨, 便宜買稀土給他們!

  • the thing is no one wants to fight with cockheads !

  • now this is bull shit china was almost useless during world war 2

  • how many times is the word JAPS is used in this clip?

    I count over 100

    No Bias here at all

  • good movie.

  • I personally think that this documentary is very balanced - surprisingly so in fact for the times. With repulsive shouts of "Banzai" and "Nagai teikoku o ikiru" imperial troops - whilst still full of perverted lust - would commit every imaginable sexual deviancy - on women as well as on men - in order to humiliate and debase. Those who still lived would thence be tied to posts and become objects for bayonet practice, or alternatively ritual beheading where their livers would be used in a feast!

  • after watching this Im kinda glad for the Tsunami, I know its horrible to say, and those affected had nothing to do with this, just as Germans now have nothing to do with Fascism, except for a few idiots, but the Japanese empire was freaking ruthless, hopefully in the next few centuries we can leave things like this behind, and finally move on to unlocking the mysteries of the Oceans, Earth itself and the known Galaxy.

  • HATE FUCKING PROPAGANDAS!!

    WANNA CELEBRATE ALL YA IDIOTS BLIND TO THE TRUTH FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY!!!

  • I think it is VERY easy to demonize ANY race/country without not really lying once.

    What I mean is, I don't think there's any nation in human history that has not

    engaged in any atrocities. So, if you selectively describe these things for 60 minutes, you have an all-truth (sort of) propaganda film. The opposite is

    also true. You could easily angelize any race just by choosing nicer things they've done (and ignoring ugly deeds.)

  • Well, this is our heroic people

  • @tichergeorge fucking american dogs were doing this for their own sake, after pearl harbour was destroyed by japenis, america was at the edge of defeat thus nuke is the only way out....dogs always like to say thing like '' we do it to help you" wtf?? we all know very well american dogs are bunch of cowards

  • @manchewl why do you seek to insult dogs? dogs are people too!

  • @manchewl america saved half the world during ww2. I'm from the Uk and they saved our asses, the supplied the British, Russians, the Aussies, and the Chinese. without even fighting they would have saved the war.

  • 这哪里是地震,是南京城三十万的野鬼在颤抖;这哪里是海啸,是东­三省流浪的孤魂在咆哮;更不是什么核辐射,是731部队科技发展­的后代找到了根。你们祈什么福捐什麼款?这还叫血海深仇吗?!

  • @asdjfh55 勿忘国耻,火烧东京

  • @xianyu3211

    <3 I agree 101%

  • 有想法

  • 有想法

  • this is bullshit the only reason japan bombed pearl harbor was because we americans blocked their islands and if they wouldnt have been sorry for us americans THEY WOULD HAVE KEPT BOMBING im saying we wouldnt have a navy 6th fleet if they didnt have mercy and this is legit war department hardly calling anyone japs anymore

  • this is pure propaganda , they showed Mao like once for w few seconds ...

    and the communists did most of the fighting against the Japanese .

    After Sun Yat Sen `s death Mao replaced him ... but Chen Kai Shi hijacked the party by purjing the communists .

    and there for he never conekted with the true Chinese - the working class .

  • @ 33:24 what music is playing i need the composer and song title it is just amazing.

  • why is the opening sound "the march of the volunteers"- the anthem of communistchina which was NOT the american-supported-china ,(nationalist-chinas anthem was "the three principles of the people")?!!

  • @MrChitoast

    Because the there was only one party at the beginning. Before the split into the Nationalist and the Communist china party, they used the same anthem. Duh! Read some history..jesus...

  • @arescraft you are wrong.

  • @arescraft you are wrong. That was a patriotic movie theme and is the national anthem in 1949 when Mao took the power

  • @Punderland

    no it's not, their theme was used by the Chinese Nationalist after the overthrow of the Qing imperial Emperor.

  • @arescraft CCP was founded in 1921 and at that time it hadn't an anthem,commies and nationalist already fought themselves in the 20s, the "March of the Volunteers"was first performed in the 1934 so my question is justified and please do yourself a favour and read yourself history prior to talking in such a big way...

  • @MrChitoast

    nope, stop making shit up. Please don't reserve to such disgusting thing as quoting false history. Read Wikipedia if you have to. Now kindly go fuck yourself.

  • @arescraft nice, someone is going mad ^^ before overreacting in such a disgusting way you could just have given me a proof that undermine my argument (you know sth like a SERIOUS CITATION not like saying I'm "quoting false history" without any justification ), but having neither a proof nor a valuable counterargument ("Read Wikipedia if you have to" XD) you are just losing your face in front of the users and to your last sentence, in contrast to you I have a girl and don't need to fuck myself :D

  • @RESIDENTM4SOPMOD fuck japenis dogs.. dogs have no pride and dignity

    being nuked by americans and now serve them by ass kissing...it's indeed true your race is the lowest among the living

  • @manchewl americunts nuked the japs because you talking boars were losing a huge amount of pigs that you call americans if u ass a was winning the war their would have been no need for a nuke

  • 我是中国人,谢谢你们的理解,我们的民族有太多的痛苦,但是注定­我们会愈发坚强。

  • @ceboym i bet all you know is barking all day long....if u hate china so much why don't you and your fucking country bring the war to china?? i dare you inferior shit as that will be more pragmatic thn to bark here all the time.

  • @ceboym and what is worse is that the fucking white apes conquered those weaker nations and make them slaves for hundred of years....be it in southeast asia , africa and america....it seems that white apes had done more damages than the chinese...it's retard like you who make whites look so stupid in the eyes of the world and you still think that you are living in the 19th century where white apes could use force and interfere in others affair...western economies are in the verge of collapse

  • Comment removed

  • @ceboym dumbass, empire do expand...it wasn't yet part of china during the the time of Qin but it was during the tang dynasty mongolia and tibet became officially part of china....it has been more than 1400 yrs since thn and everything had changed...they had been assimiliated into china.. as if your fucking bastard ancestors had not done the inhumane crime...whn european first came to america they slaughtered most the indians and left some tribes extinct....this is by far the most inhumane

  • @shishila tibet was part of china...u need some education, since the tang dynasty it was part of the chinese empire....and in the 19th century british negotiated the border between india and china at which mcmahon line was made the border....if it wasn't part of china the british wouldn't even bother to negotiate

  • That was a Damn good documentary.

  • Tibet was never been a part of china otherwise it will be inside the Great wall and too Mongolia was never a part of china if it is then it should be inside the Great wall simple as that so for those people posting ignorant uneducated commennt are those person who are Trying to impose a COUNTER FACTUAL HISTORY to favor the illegal acts of their ancestors that illigally occupied a weaker nation by force and China is notorious for this acts

  • How come they capture the good angle ?

  • dzis japonia do chin nie podskoczy

  • Dear youtube users please tell me @ 33:41 onwards there is a peace of music iam trying to find out which composer made this strong deep epic peace i really like it sounds russian not chinese though.

  • One thing here I wanna point out here, do you guys notice that when they introduced the map of China, Tibet is clearly in there a part of China! Now I am not trying to justify anything for presentday China. But this video is made way before the Communist took over, now the West is saying that Tibet before the Communists took over was an independent holy COUNTRY. How contradictory?Clearly, someone is lying.

  • @shishila hi I see u here greetings

  • @shishila

    Tibet was a country, got invaded by china and made a province. End of story.

    They said china hasn't invaded any country was to make japan look bad by invading a peaceful country.

    (this was made in 1944 after all, before the actually ended)

  • @MrMagma101

    I am not taking sides for anyone right now.

    Can you please answer me this question?

    Why is Tibet in the map of China, as you said this was made in 1944

    BUT, the People's Republic of China is found in 1949, and the PLA entered Tibet in 1950.

  • @shishila China annex Tibet by illegal occupation Tibet fought back but they are no much to chinese forces Please read teh authenticated records, one more tisn Tibet was never been a part of china if it was THEN TIBET SHOULD BE INSIDE THE GREAT WALL WHEN THE FIRST CHINESE EMPEROR QIN HAVE  DEFEATED ALL THE WARRING CHINESE FACTION AND UBITE ALL AS ONE COUNTRY "" TERM UNDER HEAVEN "' AMD MONGOLIA WAS NEVER BEEN A CHINESE PART OTHERWIDE AGAIN IT SHOULD BE INSIDE THE GREAT WALL of First emperor Qin

  • @ceboym

    Do you know what's after the Qin dynasty? It's the Han dynasty, it's territorial size is literally doubles the size of Qin, do you know how many more freaking dynasties follow after? I don't need to argue with you over that, trust me. You just need to answer me this simple question, don't change topic with me ok?

  • @ceboym This video is made before the PLA entered Tibet, and I have not stated anything so far. I am just asking this question after watching the documentary, so please answer me this question, why is Tibet in the map? If you tell me other things, I will just ignore your post.

  • @shishila well i guess this vid wasent made in 44

  • @jackbadboy1996

    Hi there, I have to be honest with you. This video is made in 1944, i just checked (but please do correct me if I am wrong).

    It's just today, the mainstream thinking in the west is that before China became a communist, Tibet is not a part of China. We can't blindly believe that fact simply because we live in the west. Because like the Communist, political lies are all over the world in any countries for their own benefit.

  • @jackbadboy1996

    My grandpa was born when the Japanese invaded China (and that was 20 years before the Communist took over) and he told me he already knew Tibet was a part of China that time. I don't know how factual it is, but I believe my grandpa's personal life experience more than what the present day media says.

  • @shishila guess your right i have no idea when this was made i was just taking a guess in the blind lol

  • @shishila i will answer this in behafl of someone you are addressing the chinese simply annex Tibet to be a part of china when the Tiberian protested the chinses invaded Tibet please read more about this (read authenticated records between Tibet and China and also the lands that belong to china from the time all part of china have been under one ruler that was the first emperor Qin and united all when he defeated all 6 kingdom his sujects were inside the Great wall of china emperor Qin built

  • @ceboym

    LOL, you seemed really pissed off. It's like you think I never read any history in my life? And what is the standard of authentic writing in your mind? Your standard of objective history is even more interesting! Because it's not inside the Great Wall then it is not apart of ...? That is abosolutely ridiculous...

  • Comment removed

  • @MrMagma101 Do you know the title Dalai Lama was given by a chinese emperor? Tibet have been part of china since 800 years ago. Tibet was like Palestine of ottoman empire. it is occuppied by the brittish and when the bloody red coats loss grasp on it, it try to go independent. China will not let such thing happen again. Just look at the map of Republic of china(Taiwan). on thier map not only Tibet but also the outer mongolia are parts of china.

  • @loader200726 no no no no Tibet was never a part of china even during the first Chinese emperor Qin , this emperor have united all the chinese kingdom 1+6 but Tibet was never been in that part and also Mongolia the chinese was doing Intrusion to that 2 country to annex as part of China Please do not post a comment here if you are not well authentically inform by the true facts, COUNTER FACTUAL HISTORY is what you are telling here in youtube thereby misleading others

  • @shishila TIBET WAS NEVER BEEN UNDER CHINA WAY BACK TO THE FIRST EMPEROR QIN, CHINA HAVE ILLEGALLY ENVADED TIBET, but the united nation did not act, why because Tibet is not an importance to any country and also avoiding conflict with China , please do not post an ignorant comments or guess that will mislead others, being a clever fool is the worse thing that a person can do, you notice a certain part and it seems a big deal to you, anyhow read the authenticated events between Tibet and China

  • @fredhubner WRONG!! this is PRE Cold war!! 1943. Yes it has propaganda issues. It much be viewed in the context of when it was made. The series, alll 7 films provides a look at that time, 1943. Shows a good overall view of the MILITARY stuations in the various Theatres of war. watch the previous film on Russia

  • @dmtau Dont worry you fool all the filmakera=s who made this 67(!) years ago are probably already dead. You are really embarisingly ignorant with your numerous idiotic statements that show a total lack of knowledge or even being able to comprehend the film that you are commenting on, ie not realizing its nearly 70 years old and should be viewed in the context of when it was made.

  • You are an absolute FOOL!! This film was made in 1943 during the WAR. Sure it has propaganda but it does provide a decent overall view of each theater of operation/war. watch the previous film in the series about the Russian campaign. It does provide a GOOD view of the overall military picture at that time in Russia. Doubtful Russia could have done it alone. 2 front war guaranteed nazi loss. Russia needed US arms shipments desperately in 42/43. Plus numerous other reasons/issues

  • @rlks920516 yes the Japanese were despicable during this era but your attitude, suggested actions are also despicable

  • this is not very true...partially true.

  • "The Fake of Nanjing"

    watch?v=zU5icsJhLuw

  • @deathstrike44 your a fag lol

  • if i can go back to the past, i would help china to start unification against those FU*KING JAPANESE! After unification push on to the Japan island. Bombard their land, kill everyone with the blood of japanese. Rape their women, butcher their man, slaughter the children MERCILESS

  • From 33:41 onwards there is a peace of music iam trying to find out which composer if any one knows please tell me, so that i can put it on my ipod. sounds epic.

  • Comment removed

  • What software did they use in those days to create the motion graphics in this video? No, really, I'm curious.

    Anyone?

  • @fernandesfran Pencil and paper.

  • Comment removed

  • Notice how Japanese used pretense(missing soldier) and an a supposed offense to their honor as reasons to be warlike. Notice the exact same behavior today from islam.

  • @garybsg I don't know. It sounds an aweful lot like Israeli tactics as well. War is hell for every one concerned. Find me a time when Israel was never at war,ever in their history?

  • @tjrxk7 Did the Jews invite the Romans to Israel? Did the Jews do the Spanish Inquisition?Did the Jews start WWII?Did the Jews ask 156 million muslim arabs to dedicate themselves to slitting the throat of every Isreali man, woman and child? The hatred shown Jews through out history is disgusting. (BTW I am Catholic)

  • @garybsg Well then,as a 'Catholic' I suggest you look into how the Vatican was instrumental with their famous 'rat-line' to make sure thousands of 'important Nazis' escape to North and South America AFTER the war. Also check into the treaties the Vatican rushed in to sign showing friendship and comradere to Hitler.The Vatican has had an intense hatred of Jews.You have been fooled by outward cover that has been used. Get the book "Vatican Assassins" by Eric Jon Phelps for an indepth look at this.

  • @tjrxk7 Complete bullshit and off the topic. Pope Pius XII took many actions to save Jews and this is documented history. Should they have done more? Of course. Think for a second of your foolishness, here is a man who dedicated his whole life to teachings of Jesus Christ but all of sudden he violates his life long creed. Utter bullshit and black helicopter crap. Read real history and more importantly use your mind to think rationally.

  • @tjrxk7 Eric Jon is a hoax the Vatican knew that Hitler hated the Jews and have eveil plan to destroy them the Vatican knew it the bible said it already so to be sure that the Catholic and the Christian as a whole will not be also destroyed by the Nazi the Vatican make friends with the Nazi the only way to ensure the safety of the millions of catholic but eventhough catholiic are still the Nazi target The Bible told us that YOUWILL BE PERSECUTED BECAUSE YOU ARE MINECHRIST SAID Jews-christian

  • I won't be surprised if some bits are exaggerated, but I believe that most of it is true. It is also interesting to see what the old Nanjing, Shanghai and places in China looked like before the Japanese destroyed them. It really saddens me to see the amount of destruction that went on.

    Of course a year later (1945) Hiroshima and Nagasaki experienced the atomic bomb, killing a large number of civilians too. Getting a taste of their own medicine I suppose. War is sad.

  • @windupbird525 how can you say that some bits are exaggerated all the scene was taken by camera in actual works,events,both in warfare and cicilian activity by Bristish,american and chinese camera men and if there are exaggeration here as you notice according to what u notice then you can comment to every part of the scene during WW2 you seem to be looking for exact scene,events, second by seconds WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE , it is easy to say do this and that or why is,why that etc TRY DO IT YOURSELF

  • @windupbird525 Its not much what the Japanese raped. Look at the russians. When they entered Germany, every city, every town, they raped. 4 Times more than what the Japs did

  • @Bloodstream2010 so you are proud of your self? Impressive, what you just said is a shame of your self and you are proud of it, man brb that is fine with me =D

  • Comment removed

  • Who made this film will pay with their death for 100% of their distorts.

  • @dmtau It was made by the war department during ww2

  • @fogt1430 "War Department during WW2" China or Chinese or American or Europe never fought in WWII.. . .This one was a big distort!

  • @dmtau Japan never invaded manchuria? I always thought that was the beginnig of ww2 but I guess you know better

  • @dmtau LOOOLLL your delusional buddy

  • Cold War Propaganda ...

  • People have no clue at all. USA, UK and partisans won the war? Russia did that, and probably could do it alone against all the axies

  • JAPANESE MOTHER FUCKERS!!

  • I MUST BE BLIND!!!OR HAS CHINA WAR HISTORY CHANGED?NOT THE COMMUNIST?THIS IS A DUMBEST HISTORY LESSON I COME ACROSS..BE MORE FAIR TO THE PEOPLE WHO DIED FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM IN CHINA..LONG LIVE THE GREAT NATION OF CHINA .. THE EAST IS RED....LONG LIVE MAO ZHE TONG.....

  • @leymennl Wait hold on dont tell me your a fan of MAO ZHE TONG

  • @leymennl You're not blind ... this documentary is a complete fabrication ...

  • @fredhubner How do you figure that

  • @Acclamatar How you DON'T figure that !!!?

  • @fredhubner If its not true then why did they display it?

  • China was so weak so they needed to learn some lesson so they did and today China should have weapon to defend themself in the 21st century. The only thing China need to do in the 21st century in to learn how to play football like the japanese and Korean.

  • @TheDreamer138 you fool! china could whip us now cuz they are a super power! they would out number us 1,330,141,295 to 310,232,863! they could whip any body they want now so shut up

  • whats ubelivable about these people going trough a living hell with no anti aircraft weapons. dying by the millions, fleeing in a mass evacuation than building an army and fighting for their lives?

  • I think the physical facts are accurate, its the why's that are usually 'spun' to fit the propaganda aims. But then the 'spin' is what human's do. I do it, you do it , everyone does it...yup yup even your girlfriend does it and if I'm wrong and would be happy to send you money to soothe your injured sensabilities...

  • don't make up your mind before you hit the issue, grow up, kid.

  • this is a great doc oh abnd by the way who the guy and his asshole friends who marked eevryone comment spam?

  • a piece of make believe history? so what part in this doc do you not want to believe? and the reason of you not doing so is?

  • @ethusiasm It's not a matter of not wanting to believe ... the Kuomintang betrayed every arrangement it had made with the Communists and instead of fighting against the invading Japanese forces it preferred to back stab the Communists ... formally their allies against the Japanese forces ... even the American government, on the backstage, advised otherwise ... this docu is a big lie ...

  • People, Fred Hubner is associated to YouTube for a far longer period than FischerWei ...

  • Comment removed

  • No I haven't ... it's history ... the Red Army had to fight the Japanese and the Kuomintang ... which preferred to attack the Red Army ... and that was America's main concern towards the Kuomintang ... it's lack of focus in face of a much dangerous enemy ... which eventually did allow the Red Army to stand as the sole champion of China's national interests ....

  • No it's not false ... it's the truth ... The Kuomintang was a notoriously corrupt political group ... and betrayed every alliance they have established with China's Communist Party in China's struggle against the invading forces of Japan ... The Kuomintang's misguided policies were a more than often embarassment to America's support of that corrupt bunch of self-serving creeps ...
