Dear President,

We tried to have open discussions with all four MIT history Professors in classrooms but some MIT history Professors actually burst out of the classroom during the discussion arranged by MIT. Instead of discussing in classrooms like scholars should, two MIT history Professors separately started one-sided attacking on students via the webs. After we challenged them in the web with specific written questions, they failed to respond to any of our questions at all. MIT history Professors seem to claim that only MIT history Professors has the right of academic freedom, not anybody else!

The MIT history Professor on German History admits that he will not use 100% Nazi propaganda to describe the holocaust. In Professor Dower’s book on Japan-USA, he did not use 100% Japanese propaganda to describe the Japan-USA events. But Dower used 100% Japanese military propaganda to describe the Jap slaughtering of Asians and all 4 MIT history PROFESSORS claim they have the right to do so! MIT history Professors clearly do not remember that USA is a nation “dedicated to the proposition that all men (and women) are created equal”?

Please help to open the discussion by asking the four MIT history Professors answer the questions listed below:

1. “Why will the history Professors not to use 100% Nazi propaganda to describe the holocaust similar to what Dower has done in using 100% Japanese military propaganda to describe the Jap’s chopping the heads of Asian??? Will you advocate a Serial-Killer’s display of his brutal and humiliating pictures of killing millions of his victims (maybe including the close relatives of yours and mine as well as Peter C. Perdue, John Dower and Shigeru Miyagawa) one by one, with a light comment such as these are “racist, shocking images”?

In comparison, pictures in the book Ms. Chang’s “Naking Massacre” were presented from the view points of the victims. They describe the pains of the victims and urge Asians to stand up and fight for their lives, and for the honor of their wives and daughters. We actually brought these pictures to show the Profs to compare these pictures with theirs before they burst out of the discussion.

In contrast, these MIT history professors used 100% Japanese military propaganda to describe the Jap’s slaughtering of Asians, from the view points of the aggressors, in the most brutal and humiliating ways! Japanese military used the frightened victims as propaganda to scare other Asians into surrender.

The difference here is heaven and hell!

This difference is exactly what the history Profs have missed and dare not face nor admit. Their silence would show that they know they are wrong but dare not admit publicly.

—- We demand historians to treat victims of Asians and Jews on equal footing!

2. Why would they burst out of scholar-like discussions to abuse academic freedom? Why the historians can’t answer any questions as scholars should?—-We believe the historians have behaved badly!

3. Why did they fail to identify Americans as well as Asians as the victims of this extreme cruel Japanese aggression? This Jap aggression continued, certainly did not stop in 1941 and thus should include Jap’s surprise attack on Pearl Harber. We demand historians to treat the Jap aggression on Asians and on Americans on equal footing!

4. Studying history is supposed to teach us how to face the present. What have they learned from this extreme cruel Japanese aggression?

Will today’s Japanese reclaim such racist aggression? Why is Japan rapidly rearming now, to repeat the history again? Should we help Jap rearm, again sowing the poisonous seed which is likely to lead to another atrocious Japanese war in Asia and another atrocious Japanese surprise attack on America like that in 1941.…………..”
—-We demand historians to learn from the past and apply it to the present.

5. Here is a new issue: Should we not thank the two atomic bombs, which put a quick end to this extreme cruel Japanese aggression, and saved a lot more Jap and non-Jap’s lives and sufferings than killed by these bombs?

We disagree with the argument of these history Professors in their next MIT course that the two atomic bombs are cruel and caused lots of human sufferings, because the bombs actually saved a lot more of human sufferings than they killed. —This is a simple math: the number of people killed and suffered in 1944-1945 is far greater than the number of people killed by the atomic bombs. — History should be presented in a balanced view point.

Respectfully yours,

Honesty
