During the second Sino-Japanese war,
抗日戰爭中
weapons of mass destruction
日軍對手無寸鐵的中國人民
were extensively used against the Chinese.
使用了大量的大規模殺傷性武器
Rather than taking allied airmen as prisoners of war,
日軍逮到盟國空軍 通常也不作為戰俘處置
it was common practice to execute them after the Japanese had captured and interrogated them.
而是在逮捕和詢問后處以死刑
During WWII,
二戰中
as the Americans cut off Japanese supply lines,
美國人切斷了日本的供給線之后
staring Japanese soldiers on the remote Pacific islands
在遙遠太平洋小島上望眼欲穿的日軍
survived by committing acts of cannibalism.
竟然靠食人生存
One of the greatest tragedies was the plight of the comfort women,
最大的悲劇莫過于慰安婦的悲慘處境
these were young, innocent girls
這些年輕天真的少女
forced into sexual slavery in Japanese military brothels,in occupied countries.
在占領區日軍妓院中被逼迫成為性奴隸
Hundreds of thousands of comfort women
成百上千的慰安婦
endured serial rape day and night in the so-called Comfort Stations.
在所謂的“舒服屋”中日以繼夜遭受輪奸
They came from China, Korea
這里有自中國人 朝鮮人
and later from all over the Japanese occupied territories in Asia,
后來遍布所有日軍搶占的亞洲地區
among them Australians as well as Dutch from Indonesia.
甚至有來自印尼的澳洲人和荷蘭人
Eventually,
終于
some of these women bravely came forward,
有些女人站了出來
writing about their chromatic experiences
將她們不堪的經歷寫成書
in their memoirs.
編成回憶錄
The most well-known of these authors,
其中有一位很著名的作者叫

about her deal as a sex slave,
講述了她作為性奴的經歷
which started, when, at the age of 19,
她年僅19歲時便成了慰安婦
she was captured with her family by the Japanese in the Dutch East Indies,
她和她的家人是在荷屬東印度群島被日軍逮捕的
today is Indonesia.
荷屬東印度群島便是今天的印度尼西亞
As Japan continued to conquer Southeast Asia,
當日軍的觸角繼續伸向東南亞
the war crimes committed by imperial forces continued to mount,
日軍罪惡滔天
the 1942 Batan death march in the Philippines
1942年菲律賓的巴坦屠殺軍隊
was the forceable transfer of an estimated 80,000 Filipino and American prisoners of war.
便強行轉移了約八十萬菲律賓人和美國戰俘
After the 3 months devastating battle of Batan,
三個月的巴坦戰役
thousands died before their reach to their destination.
數以千計的人在達到目的地之前便已喪命
It was followed by the 1942 Laha Massacre
之后是1942年的拉哈大屠殺
of Australian and Dutch civilians,
大批澳洲人和荷蘭人
who were bayoneted and beheaded in cold blood.
被冷血的日軍刺刀刺死或砍頭
