NOBODY WITNESSED MURDERS ACTUALLY

There was the International Committee for Nanking Safety Zone.  This committee consisted of 22 Westerners and the chairman of this committee was John H.D.Rabe.  The members of this committe contained John G.Magee, George Ashmore Fitch, Miner Searle Bates, Robert O.Wilson and Lewis S.C.Smythe.

This committee wrote reports regarding the security situation of Nanking city 61 times from Dec.13, 1937 to Feb.9, 1938 and sent the same reports to Japanese Embasssy, Embassy of the
United States, British Embassy and Germany Embassy. All of these 61 reports are included in “What War Means” written by H.J.Timperley (The Manchester Guardianin) July of 1938.

According to these 61 reports, they reported murder: 41, mayhem: 44, rape: 361, taking: 390, plunder and others: 170 for 2 months. However, all of these reports were “hearsay”, nobody of this committee witnessed them actually.  The International Military Tribunal for the Far East(Tokyo Trial:1946-1948) summoned 4 members of this committee included John G.Magee, George Ashmore Fitch, Miner Searle Bates and Robert O.Wilson. They testified they did not witness any muder and heard from some one.  This trial proved nobody witnessed murders actually and they wrote reports on the basis of  ”Hearsay”.

And yet, John Rape sent a following letter of appreciation to the commander of Japanese army’ on behalf of the International Committee(Dec. 14).
“Dear Sirs. We express our appreciation to your artillery’s praiseworthy act of having not attacked the safety zone and for becoming able to communicate with you (commander Matsui) about the future plan for supporting Chinese citizens in the same area. ” (Stenography No.210).

南京安全区国際委員会は南京陥落から２ヶ月の間に、南京市の状況について61通の報告書を作成し、それを日本大使館をはじめアメリカ、イギリス、ドイツ大使館へ届けている。（これらの報告書すべては、ハロルド・J・ティンパーリ の「戦争とは何か」に収録されている）それらの報告書に書かれている殺人、強姦、掠奪の数をすべて合計しても「大虐殺」とはとても言いがたい。さらには、それらが日本兵による犯行であるとは限らない。しかも、そのすべてが「伝聞」によるものであり、実際に彼らが目撃したわけではない。その「伝聞」は東京裁判における彼らの証言で明らかになっている。近代国家における裁判では「伝聞：他人から聞いた話」は証拠としては取り扱われないことは常識なのだ。
しかし、このジョン・ラーべというオヤジ・・・よくよく見ると悪そうな顔しているなあ。いかにもナチといった根っからの「悪役」の顔だよな。よくもこんなオヤジを「南京のシンドラー」に仕立てたものだ。中国のセンスを疑うよ。ったく！
