主题：南京大屠杀纪念-小国际里面的小讨论 （一） -- 马踏飞燕

为了纪念南京大屠杀， 也为了探听探讨日本人的口风， 本人在学校邮件列表里面群发了一份给所有日本留学生的邮件，引发了一系列讨论。 日本人发言了，中国人发言了，新加坡人发言了， 美国人发言了， 德国人也发言了，各种声音，各种面目，结论如何姑且不论，讨论本身绝对有价值呈现给大家。

先发本人的第一封邮件，开端：

Tomorrow is 70th Memorial Day of Nanking Massacre (or The Rape of Nanking ) ,I think it is necessary for me to do something for that nightmare of 300,000 people since there are still lots of arguments for that nowadays.

In Chinese media there are lots of reports on the Japanese reactions on the Nanjing Massacre or fatherly the opinion on the World War II, I do not want to simply take all that media told me, they may be prejudice, there may be some truth the media intentionally bypass, instead I want to directly get some information from our Japanese friends on campus, I want to know the truth in Japan.

Would you allow me to ask a few questions? to compare to the reports by media.

1. Have you heard about the Nanking Massacre in 1937? if yes where did you hear it, from history textbook or old people? How many victim do you know?

2. Your government passed one history textbook called 'new history textbook ', in which 'Nanking Massacre' is replaced by 'Nanking incident', and doesn't mention victim number . How many students will use this textbook, all students in Japan or just a fraction of them ?

3. Do you know the 'comfort women'? Your government denied that the Japanese military had forced women into sexual slavery during World War II last March. What is the common Japanese people's opinion? Do you really believe that the Chinese and Korean or even the Dutch girls became the sexual slavery as their will? Even in the days some victims are still alive.

4. Do you support your leader visit the Yasukuni Shrine where more than 1000 war criminals are enshrined in ? What is the difficulty to remove the war criminals' positions from it? what is the reason to put Taiwanese and Koreans' name on it, they were forced to serve for japan and lost their lives.

If we Chinese and Japanese or include Korean want to have a peaceful future and trust each other like what the Germany and France do, we should definitely make the history clear, understand it together and settle down all the arguments.

I'm looking forwards your generous reply, you can argue, you can tell me loudly 'the media are lying!', but do please say something if you really care about the future. If there is not a single Japanese reply this, what can I say? may be "Brother! it seems that our neighbor even doesn't care about killed our grandpa, what should we do? "

Best
