Japan versus the White Powers Plus China — The Undercurrent of Modern History and the Structure of Conflict over Manchuria.
This essay examines the deeper structure behind modern history through Japan’s administration of Manchuria, the Lytton Commission, white colonial imperialism, Japan’s conception of war, and the international antagonisms that led to the last war.
Reframing the essence of modern history as a structure of Japan versus the white powers plus China, it sharply exposes the irony of the postwar order.

If one overlooks that undercurrent, modern history cannot be seen.
A structure of confrontation was formed, Japan versus the white powers plus China, and the last war broke out.
From the following book, I send all of the chapters I have introduced thus far and all of the chapters I will introduce hereafter especially to Alexis Dudden, an unbelievable idiot, a vile and malicious low creature, who is said to be a professor at an American university.
The following is a continuation of the previous chapter.
Japan made its appearance on the world stage at the end of the nineteenth century.
It sent warships to protest the United States, which had seized the Hawaiian monarchy, and the following year it fought China and defeated it.
Then ten years later it defeated the white nation of Russia, and ten years after that, in the First World War, it took on Germany, which possessed aircraft, the symbol of white ingenuity, with three times their air power and defeated them.
Moreover, there was a purity in Japan’s wars that did not exist within their common sense.
What was even more shocking was the appearance of the “colonies” administered by Japan.
Manchuria in particular.
The Lytton Commission, made up of veterans of “exploitative colonies,” such as Victor Lytton, former Viceroy of India from Britain, Henri Claudel, Inspector General of colonial forces involved in governing Algeria from France, and Heinrich Schnee, Governor of German East Africa from Germany, looked at Manchuria.
And they were astonished.
Article 20 of the Covenant of the League of Nations says that “to promote the welfare of the peoples of backward regions is the sacred mission” of the advanced nations.
But in reality they had advanced the stupefaction of the peoples of backward regions, while the United States and Britain sold opium in China and Malaysia, and France sold it in Vietnam, doing nothing but exploit them.
Yet in Manchuria, against the background of the produce of fertile land and underground resources, schools were built, and many ethnic groups, including Jews and Slavs, were enjoying freedom and prosperity under Japanese guidance.
The veterans of colonial exploitation must have seen Manchuria itself as an indictment of their white colonial imperialism.
The report to the League of Nations is consistently written in the spirit of throwing Japan out and saying that Manchuria should be run by whites.
To countries that possessed slaves, waged cruel wars, and took delight in plunder and rape, Japan, which neither plundered nor raped and possessed neither slaves nor colonies, appeared not merely as an irritant, but as a country whose very existence was intolerable.
If one overlooks that undercurrent, modern history cannot be seen.
A structure of confrontation was formed, Japan versus the white powers plus China, and the last war broke out.
That it was the most evil of them all, the United States, that subdued Japan, and that this same United States now stands as the protector of an unarmed Japan is less an irony of history than nothing more than a very bad joke.
