Nanking Massacre 1937
Preface
This year marks the 64th anniversary of the Nanking Massacre. The Japanese occupation of Nanking, the capital of the Republic of China, lead to one of the greatest horrors of the century. Despite its far-reaching implications, much of the world remains unaware of the events which took place in the Chinese city of Nanking in December 1937.
The Nanking Massacre remains one of the most inhuman and horrifying crimes ever committed in the human civilization history. But despite the irrefutable evidence, since the end of the Second World War, especially in the recent years, some Japanese, including a few high-ranking government officers and so-called "historians", have denied the occurrence of the Nanking Massacre in public and tried to whitewash the atrocities that the Japanese army brought to China.
The forgiveness can be granted, but the history must not be distorted. This web site is set up to preserve and disseminate the truth about the Nanking Massacre and to the memory of its victims.
