"Finally I saw the status of Yokogawa and Tokyo in bomb" "I stared the view of both side of the road." "And the expression of the men and lady on the road." "my impression is... the factories in Yokogawa and Tokyo are disappeared in the bomb." "This time I felt the truth meaning." "whatever men or lady they and what I saw before 22 years in Japan." "already so much difference." "Who changed it?" "it cannot do not let them take it..." "Who we are going to judge." "they disturbed the world." "tormented China." "And ruined the future of their country." "a state had good future." "therefore result in the fate." "Do evil by themselves." "this is a tragedy in the history" "Also an retribution" "We affirm that, as members of the lnternational Military Tribunal for the Far East," "we will duly administer justice according to law, without fear, favor or affection," "according to our conscience, and the best of our understanding," "and that we will not disclose or discover the vote or opinion of any particular member of the Tribunal" "upon finding or sentence, but will preserve the inviolate secrecy of the counsel of every member." "We swear to God." "Please sit down." "Before we start, there are a few things I would like to clarify" "First of all, we don't need to be overly polite among ourselves." "Please just call me William." "We should treat each other as equals and consider ourselves one big family." "I hope this would be a pleasant experience for all of us." "As this trial will be conducted on the basis of the Common Law System, the seating of the judges will be as follows:" "The United States, Britain, China, the Soviet Union, Canada" "France, Australia, the Netherlands," "India, New Zealand, and the Philippines." "I will not accept that arrangement." "Pardon me." "What do you mean?" "I believe the seating order of the judges in this trial should follow the order of signatures on the Japanese lnstrument of Surrender." "China was second on the list." "Therefore, the judge from China should be seated right after the United States." "My dear Mei, this is a courtroom, not a reenactment of surrender." "Then perhaps," "Sir William could explain his reasons for this arrangement?" "Dr. Mei, this is has been the common practice." "What common practice?" "Whose practice?" "Isn't following the order of signatures in the instrument of Surrender a common practice?" "Dr. Mei, we are here to judge war criminals." "Why are you making fuss over such a trivial matter?" "This is no trivial matter." "Besides, Our concern here is what's right and what's wrong." "There's nothing trivial about it." "Dr. Mei, then please suggest a fair method." "If we are not going to follow the order on the instrument of Surrender..." "Maybe... it might even be the fairest... we'll put our judges on the scale, and the seating arrangement will be determined by weight" "Dr. Mei, the method you suggest is eminently fair, but would only be appropriate for boxing matches." "This is a courtroom, not a boxing ring." "If the seating arrangement is not to be determined by weight, then the only fair method is to follow the order on the Japanese lnstrument of Surrender." "I have no wish at all to allow this international tribunal to become a boxing ring." "Stop!" "Chinese pig!" "Get out of Japan!" "We were beaten to American," "Not China!" "Get out!" "Cooperate with US." "Gendarme, finished the enquiry." "driver was kept back temporarily." "For the further enquiry" "Xiao Nan and I was both ashamed to the driver." "Also sigh with emotion." "Come in." "Dr Mei, there will be a rehearsal for tomorrow's opening ceremony at 4:00 this afternoon." "Please be there on time and wear your judicial robe;" "photographers will be present." "Thank you" "Good afternoon, sit down." "Since the lnternational Military Tribunal for the Far East formally begins hearing its cases tomorrow," "I will announce the seating order of the judges for final dress rehearsal today..." "The seating order of the judges is as follows:" "United States, Britain, China, the Soviet Union, Canada," "France, Australia, the Netherlands, India," "New Zealand and the Philippines..." "Dr. Mei, please let me explain." "Please calm down and listen" "I'm listening" "The main reason I placed the American and British judges on my left and right is because they have a better understanding of the Common Law, which would make this trial fun more smoothly." "This decision absolutely does not reflect any prejudice against China..." "Forgive me for being frank." "We all know that this is an international tribunal, not British or American." "I don't see any need to seat the American and British judges in the center." "Dr. Mei, please look at this problem from a different angle." "With this arrangement, you will be seated between the American and French judges, instead of next to the Russian general." "I would imagine that would please you." "Sir William, that's insulting." "As a Chinese, it is my solemn duty to remind you that I didn't come to Tokyo to be pleased." "My homeland China has been invaded and plundered by the Japanese for over fifty years." "To the Chinese people, trying Japanese war criminals is a heavy responsibility, a grave responsibility." "We are not here for pleasure." "Doctor Mei, I would like to solemnly remind you as well that." "this seating arrangement originated from an order given by the Supreme Commander, General MacArthur himself" "It would be extremely unfortunate if your refusal to accept this seating arrangement were to cause friction in Chinese-American relations." "Your government might not agree with your decisions." "I refuse to accept this arrangement that has ground at all in any law or reason." "In this war against Japanese aggression" "China has suffered the most and fought the longest, the hardest." "The Britain, on the other hand, has been retreating and surrendering time and time again." "It's unthinkable that China's place in this trial should be relegated to a spot below Britain." "I do not believe the government of China will agree to this arrangement..." "In addition," "I don't believe that this seating arrangement came from the Supreme Commander himself" "Hold on." "Let me discuss this with the other judges first." "I'll have an answer for you in ten minutes." "Dr. Mei, I'm sorry to disappoint you, but my colleagues unanimously see today just as a dress rehearsal and nothing more." "Why don't we just take a few pictures at the rehearsal now, and then tonight we'll open a full discussion regarding the actual seating order of tomorrow's court?" "Sir William, I have to disappoint you as well." "I definitely will not participate in the rehearsal for this seating arrangement." "The whole world's photographers and reporters in rehearsal are now out there in the courtroom." "They are going to take photos and write reports on this seating arrangement." "When these reports and photos reach China, do you know what's going to happen?" "The entire Chinese people will all reproach me for my weakness and my incompetence." "If I agree to this arrangement," "I'll be insulting my country." "I'd be insulting all my countrymen's suffering, sacrifice, and perseverance in resisting the Japanese aggression." "Everything." "Sir William, can you understand?" "It is for this reason that I will not take take in this rehearsal." "As for myself, I will report the matter back to my government to see if they support me." "If they don't, I shall resign immediately and ask them to replace me." "Please do not leave." "How about this?" "I'll get our colleagues' opinion on this again" "I absolutely don't want you to go." "I'll be back in no more than ten minutes." "Alright, I'll wait another ten minutes." "Dr. Mei, you win." "Your country should be proud to have a fighter like you." "I'm not a fighter." "I'm a judge, a Chinese judge." "My dear Mei, can you do me a little favor?" "Of course." "Call me William." "William." "Good evening, please give me some wine." "Yousuko, come here and join us" "What's a pity, maybe next time will be ok." "For Japan's failuer, cheers!" "Mr Shino, we have promised that we don't talk bout the War any more!" "Don't talk about the War" "For our friendship, cheers" "But Japan failed in the war" "Japan really failed?" "What's the purprose for your coming back?" "With the prond of a winner, to display your strength to us?" "Or to talk about the past with Yousuko?" "Do you know how Yousuko survived in the American army's bombs?" "American army throw out 2500 tons of bombs," "Tokyo's 35 sections were blowed down, 80000 people losed their lives" "In Hiroshima and Nagazaki," "10000 people were died" "They were all common people" "Did they have any fault?" "But do you konw hao many people died in Shanghai and Nanjing?" "Wuhan bomb, Chongqing bomb," "Huabei butcher," "Do you konw how many Chinese common people died in Japan Army?" "Do you know how many Chinese women were raped?" "That's a lie!" "That's a lie for your political purpose!" "Were there any turth in your newspaper?" "Youiqi!" "You care about him?"

"Fang Zi and her sister YingZi." "since they have left school, for responsing the Dong Tiao council." "joined the battle service group." "Have never been heard of since." "Xiao Nan is the journalist who was sent to Tokyo by Dagong Newspaper before the war starting he was studying at Tokyo," "Fangzi and Xiaonan were his classmate." "Xiang, try to look a little more enthusiastic." "Don't forget this is a historic moment." "The whole world is watching us!" "This whole situation just makes me a little uncomfortable." "What's that?" "I feel like I'm putting on a show here." "Court." "Please sit down." "The International Military Tribunal for the Far East is now in session." "All the defendants of this case were once leaders of Japan for the past several decades when Japanese power was at its peak." "They include prime ministers, foreign ministers, treasury ministers, chiefs of staff and military high commanders." "No matter how high they once stood, their treatment now is no different from that of the lowest of ordinary soldiers." "We will assure the defendants that a careful examination will be made before this court regarding the number and nature of the prosecution charges filed against them in the indictment, along with the declaration of all the applicable laws." "Honorable presiding judge and members of the court," "I am Joseph Keenan, the chief prosecutor for this lnternational Military Tribunal for the Far East and for the United States of America," "The charter of the lnternational Military Tribunal for the Far East clearly stipulates five separate charges with which the defendants have been indicted, as listed:" "premeditation, organization, initiation, and or execution of a war in violation of international law, treaties, agreements or assurances."

"Mr. Defense attorney, the courtroom is not preaching grounds for your theories or for your to set conditions." "Your first point concerns me personally." "Therefore, I withhold myself from the decision the other judges will make in a conference later." "I also don't think the other ten judegs have the qualification of the lnternational Military Tribunal." "So I think the conference of judges will not be fair, too." "I object!" "Then in your opinion, what do you think would be fair?" "Super court in United States of America." "That's completely out of question!" "Court is adjourned." "How could an international court compose of eleven judges appointed by their respective democratic governments and organized by the best minds of international law" "lack the decorum of one federal court?" "This is absolute provocation." "Since I've been the target," "I'm willing to abide by the ruling of a conference of judges."

"I don't want to hear your explanations!" "My question is," "Did you report the battle plan to the central command, and did they approve it?" "Yes" "Then, how can you perpetuate your statement of no premeditation and conspiracy for the September 18 lncident?"

"Near the end of your term as minister of the army, you sent an emissary to China to meet with two individuals... the first premier of the Republic of China," "Tang Shaoyi, and the former head of the Northern Warlords, Wu Peifu" "Is that correct?" "Yes" "Your emissary's purpose was to entice them to participate in a puppet organization you were trying to set up." "Is that right?" "I don't know." "Well, do you at least remember whom you sent?" "Was that person none other than the one who usurped the position of mayor of Shenyang, installed the puppet emperor Pu Yi, fraternized with the Japanese Kuandong Army, plotted to bring self-rule to North China, instigated the independence movement in lnner Mongolia," "incited traitors everywhere to set up puppet governments and traitorous organizations never hesitated to do evil, and now sits in the defendants' table, namely Kenji Dohihara?"
