Unit 731


Auschwitz of the East

Over the years, we have heard about the infamous Unit 731... home to Japan's secret Biological - Chemical Warfare experimentation program, that used human guinea pigs as terminal experimentation material. But for the most part, we have heard second, third-hand reports and read the accounts of western reasearchers. Recently, by combining the surviving documents of Unit 731 and the Japanese government, accounts of surviving POWs and civilians, and the accounts of surviving members of Unit 731, we are beginning to recognize the despicable level of barabarism that was engaged in these horrorific places... Pingfan and Mukden, Manchuria, and even in Japan itself.

The Unit 731 section of this site, has been separated purposefully. The reason being... the accounts and pictures herein are simply too disturbing to present without a warning. With that in mind:

WARNING - The accounts and pictures you will see in this section are extremely upsetting and offensive. They depict the wartime atrocities of Japanese doctors, military personnel and scientists, who used tens of thousands of Chinese, Russian, American and other civilians and prisoners of war, as human guinea pigs in medical experimentation programs. They are graphic. If you are easily upset, or offended, read no further. You may EXIT by selecting the BACK button on your browser.

If you choose to continue reading this section, do so of your own volition. DO NOT write us and demand that this material be removed. DO NOT write us and tell us how offended you are at this material. DO NOT be offended by us. We are merely the messenger. BE OFFENDED by the actions of power, hate, greed, intolerance and ignorance that allowed an entity such as Unit 731 to be created and to exist. BE OFFENDED by the actions of the United States, to protect the murderers of Unit 731, and offer them immunity from prosecution in exchange for the documentation and data accrued by this crime against humanity. BE OFFENEDED that the survivors of this nightmare, the Chinese people, American POWs, Russian and other nationalities, have received no reparations for their suffering, nor an apology or answers. BE OFFENDED that as humans, we walk amongst such monsters, who think nothing of classifying another human being as 'maruta' - 'a piece of wood', something to be used, abused and then discarded. BE OFFENDED that the lies and deceit continue in order to protect a select few... at the incalculable expense and suffering of so many.

Thank you.
