On February 28, it was a riot initiated by Benshengren (local Taiwanese) to kill Waishengren (Mainlanders)! Reports at the time stated: 'Within this day, in every corner of Taipei city, the corpses of Waishengren were lying almost everywhere.'
This article expresses strong opposition to the DPP government's decision to fly the national flag at half-mast for the death of former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The author questions the procedural legitimacy (lack of formal diplomatic channels) and denies Abe's substantive contribution to Taiwan, viewing his spiritual support as political calculation. It criticizes Abe's right-wing stance on historical issues, including Yasukuni Shrine visits, denial of the Nanjing Massacre, and lack of apology for comfort women. Finally, it cites historical records of Japanese massacres in Taiwan during the colonial era, emphasizing that Taiwanese must not forget the past.
This article recounts the major massacre known as the 'Shaw Ridge Street Incident' (present-day Jiali District, Tainan) that occurred in $1895$ during the Japanese Imperial Guards Division's occupation of Tainan Prefecture. After fierce fighting with the Taiwanese volunteer army, rumors of a prince being killed or the cries of children exposing their location led the Japanese troops to open machine-gun fire on fleeing civilians hiding in ditches (house-side trenches), resulting in approximately two to three thousand victims and turning Shaw Ridge Street into a 'City of the Wrongfully Dead'.
The article strongly criticizes the defense of bloody massacres during the Japanese colonial era put forward by a small number of Taiwanese people, condemning the argument that 'as long as they attacked China, it was fine' as 'the ugly side.' Japan's covetousness for Taiwan never ceased. Long before the Sino-Japanese War, it invaded Taiwan by exploiting the 'Mudan She Incident' under the guise of the Ryukyu Kingdom, aiming to use Taiwan as a strategic springboard for aggression against Southeast Asia and Mainland China.
Japan, a country sharing the same notoriety as the Nazis in modern war history, continues to be active in various corners of the world through information control at the wartime level under the name of economy. Fortunately, through the vivid memory accusations of a few survivors and many foreigners who helped disaster-stricken civilians in mainland China, we can slightly uncover the dark truth that the Japanese military was eager to cover up and did not want anyone to know.
