Rape of Nanking: Forgotten slaughter of World War II The book that I chose to read was "Rape of Nanking: Genocide of Forgotten World War II". This book explains the mass murder and mass collapse of Japanese people in China during the Second World War. "Nanjing rape" represents events occurring before, during, and after the Chinese people and their cities. Iris Chang was born on 28th March 1968 at Princeton, New Jersey. Her mother and father accepted the professor at the University of Illinois (Becker), so Chang 's family moved to Champagne Urbana, Illinois.

To personalize the story of each victim read Iris Chang's "Natural Rape: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II". I thought what would happen if this happened today, after dealing with the horrible testimony of murder, rape and plunder.

Perhaps the most obvious example during World War II is rape of Nanjing, which was done by a Japanese soldier victorious against Chinese people in Nanjing. The Nanking Massacre (also known as the Nanjing Massacre) includes not only the horrible rape of thousands of Chinese women and girls, but also the massacres of thousands of Chinese men, women and children . There was no real reason or regret, and the rampage in the city. The Japanese army's treatment of prisoners of war and many conquered people is another factor of the various atrocities committed by them.

In the case that was memorized as "Nanjing Massacre" in 1937, the Japanese army conducted massacres of unprecedented Chinese citizens. It is estimated that thousands of Chinese were murdered, tortured and raped as the Japanese army abandoned garbage in the city. Except for a few Western missionaries, everyone fled Nanjing and John Rabe. Rabe is a German businessman who left the Nanjing Security Zone to protect and protect refugees. Rabe opened his wealth as a refuge for the Chinese and all foreign embassies and Nanjing University. Rabe is a member of the Nazi party and officially represents Germany, so Japan respects this safe area. Germany is in the early stage of forming an axis with Japan. It is estimated that Rabe saved the lives of 200,000 to 250,000 Chinese refugees.
