Nanjing Massacre denial
Denial of the 1937 massacre by Japan
Summary
Denial of the Nanjing Massacre is a negationist claim asserting that the murder and rape of hundreds of thousands of Chinese soldiers and civilians by Imperial Japanese forces in Nanjing is a fabrication or exaggeration. Most historians accept the findings of the Tokyo tribunal with respect to the scope and nature of the atrocities which were committed by the Imperial Japanese Army after the Battle of Nanjing during the Second Sino-Japanese War. In Japan, however, there has been a debate over the extent and nature of the massacre, with some historians attempting to downplay or outright deny that the massacre took place.
