break the code. :-(

How?

It really does make one question the accepted versions of history, doesn't
it? I mean, if historians can get things SO wrong, so quickly -- what
chance for accuracy do we have when referring to things that happened a
century ago? Or in the last millennium?

They always say that history is written by the victors, thus warping
reality -- but there seems to be far more to it than that.

I'm waiting to see a citation of a non-Japanese historian who thinks
that Japan didn't invade Korea, Manchuria, China, the Pacific islands,
etc., starting long before 12/7/41. The last popular book I remember
on Japanese atrocities was _The Rape of Nanking_ , published in 1997,
_The Comfort Women: Japan's Brutal Regime of Enforced Prostitution in
the Second World War_ came out in 1995.
