Re: No Double Standard At All!

Hi, folks:

3) True - the Japanese (and US) germwar allegation is still controversial.
A few months ago, SK TV MBC aired a special documentary on this subject.
Also, I believe there exists a recorded interview with Gen. Ishi who said he
was in Korea - another SK TV has it and presumably will air it.  I heard
this from an American researcher who had taped the interview.

4) There was, in fact, a "Japanese Volunteers Army"  (aka 'Volunteers
Corps' - 'Japan' was never mentioned until recently in SK).  Officially, it
was supposedly made of Japanese of Korean origin and led by Korean veterans
of the Japanese Army who opted to settle down in Japan at the end of WWII.
These folks came from Japan, fought in Korea and then went back to Japan.
