| Okay I understand you are trying to use the Bushido Code as a referance towards the POW's not fulfilling their duties. However if you look at Bushido it was older than the 2nd World War. Russian Prisoners in the Japan Russo War were treated well. Bushido was bastardized by the officers to follow.
Pray tell. Where in Bushido does it encourge the beheadings and bayonetings of civilians? The impressment of young women as sex slaves? To enhance the samauri spirit?
The people of Japan were lead astray by a Military. I will agree with that. But to deny the atrocities is blindness.
