The world is in the midst of a US presidential election.
I'm sure there is a lot of tension as the results are not coming out.
But the results will come out someday, so I would like to put the election aside and talk about something else today.
It's a story about history, but it's not taught in textbooks, so I would like to talk about the fact that there was this I decided to write about it because I wanted you to know about it.
Once upon a time, there was a country called Manchuria in what is now northeastern China.
Manchuria was a very developed country rich in mineral resources such as coal and iron ore.
It existed between Japan and the Soviet Union (Union of Soviet Socialist Republics). For Japan, the country was positioned as a geopolitical buffer zone.
In fact, a large number of Jewish refugees had been living in Manchuria even before the start of World War II.
Jews were persecuted by the Soviet Union and Germany, fleeing from Poland to Lithuania. Chiune Sugihara, a diplomat you all know very well, issued more than 6,000 visas for life and risked his life to He was able to escape all the way to Manchuria on the Trans-Siberian Railway. The Jews who came to Japan from Manchuria Since the visa is only for two weeks and it is impossible to leave the country in a short period of time, Setsuzo Kotji and others worked hard to extend the visa and Many Jews escaped and went to America and other countries where they could live in peace.
In that sense, Manchuria was the land of the Jews, and it was a very close country to the Japanese. You could say. The movement to create the state of Israel in that Manchuria was in full swing, and the country, politicians and ordinary people It means that there is a history of positive movement. I had no idea that there was such a move either. The idea of creating a Jewish state in Manchuria with the rich economic power of the Jews is now unthinkable. The idea of creating a Jewish state in Manchuria with the rich economic power of the Jewish people is nowhere near as exciting as it seems. I think it was an incredibly grand plan. The German government is calling on the Japanese government to immediately stop protecting the Jews As I have informed you on many occasions, Japan's position is clear: the Japanese and the Jews are the same people.
They had a clear idea that they would not discriminate on the basis of ethnicity and ignored all notices from the Nazi German government.
The Jews in Manchuria and Japan are said to have been sincerely grateful for the warm hospitality of the Japanese. We have heard your story. The story so far will never appear in a school history textbook, nor will it be taught.
But I really want you to know that there is truth in our buried history, and that's why I'm writing this blog today. I've written about it. There are many more truths that are not found in history textbooks.
If I have the opportunity, I would like to write about other buried truths of history again.
So that's it for today's blog.
I hope that you will visit my blog again and
You and I have been thinking together about the same subject.
If only I could share the same time and space with you.
How wonderful!
I look forward to seeing you again.
See you then!
Here's to your eyes!
