No, lauding the performance of the A&SH in Malaya is completely divorced from Singapore. If you cannot see that then I will make no further attempt to enlighten you.
I re-iterate: "blindfolding the prisoners, depriving them of food and sleep and using threatening interrogation techniques" is nothing compared with the actions of the Japanese Imperial Army everywhere they went.
They behaved like savages.
Why this conduct should take place escapes me. I guess that the Japanese soldiery were rather less civilised than I'd expect.

Ask the Chinese about Nanking.



Allegedly Chinese civilians being buried alive.
The one of a tied-up man being bayoneted seems to have been withdrawn.

Sorry about this but you did ask for it.

Anyhoo - the message appears to be: "Don't f**kin' lose!"
Then you get to write the history.
Oh, so sorry; I forgot that sort of stuff doesn't appear in Japanese history books anyway.
