No earthly body is above the word of God - but none of his words speak of rights.

Except, perhaps, for dominion over the Earth. But this is more of a material thing than a political one.


Heaven needs no rights. It's a given.

No, you just support the imperialism which leads to them being murdered.


Only if that imperialism is carried out by a Frenchman, a Japanese or Belgian really.

The simple act of annexation of Korea, the active exploitation of Manchukuo for resources (not to mention invading to establish a puppet state), and callous conquests in China and beyond are all more than befitting of the label 'imperialism'.

Japan didn't dissolve the Korean government, and there were independence fighters fighting in Korea, so all was not lost in the Korean Peninsula. China was conquered, though.

How does that disqualify them from being imperialist? The Governor-Generals of Korea were without exception all Japanese, the era is in fact referred to as "occupation period by Japanese imperialist" and if anything the existence of independence fighters point out just how independent and 'Korean' that period was.

On the other hand, if having independence fighters disqualifies one from the 'conquered' status, I don't see how China falls onto that when it was still fighting the IJA as a foe in conventional warfare.

China, however, had its government conquered. If their central hub is conquered, the whole nation is conquered.

look at those names and tell me one of them, one of them is korean

on the other hand about half of china was still resisting while all of korea was conquered so where's the double standards coming from.

That was when the Japanese thought they had full control of Korea, which they didn't, because of the Independence Fighters.
Also, the half of China that wasn't conquered was the Gobi desert. It's not as anyone would be fighting for it or be living there. :roll:

surely you must have read the line that the capital city had relocated to Chongqing and before that was in Nanjing?

So, once Japanese just even steps into the territory of a nation, that nation is conquered? Both were in battle, and it's clear, in 1945, Korea became independent after long years of fighting.

If a nation isn’t conquered just because there are still some independent fighters left, surely Poland, France, Czechoslovakia, Denmark, Norway etc. were never incorporated into the Third Reich?
