Around the 18th century, the then world power Britain expanded wildly and established many colonies around the world. On the Atlantic coast alone, Britain had 13 colonies. Where there is oppression, there is resistance. In 1775, the people in central North America began to resist the colonial rule of the British Empire on a large scale, which is the famous " war of independence ". The following year, a man named George Washington published the " Declaration of Independence ", and the United States of America has been established since then.
Although the United States has not been established for a long time, it is now a superpower in the world. He made his fortune by war and has participated in many wars for more than 200 years. Statistics show that the United States has not participated in a war for more than 20 years since its founding. It can be seen that the United States is a very belligerent country, burning gunpowder all over the world and expanding its territory. In November 1955, the " Vietnam War " that lasted for 20 years broke out. In 1961, the United States sent troops to the war. During the period, the American soldiers used a lot of villain methods, which became the nightmare of Vietnamese female soldiers, and also abused ordinary women. What exactly did the US military do to Vietnamese women?
Since ancient times, wars have had a huge impact on people's lives. Among them, women, as a vulnerable group, are more vulnerable. Once a war broke out, their husbands and sons were forced to go to the battlefield to serve as strong men. Most of the time, they could not come back, and they became widows. When the place where they live is occupied by the enemy, they will be humiliated by the enemy army and may even be taken away. In ancient military camps, there were many military prostitutes. Maybe they are the children of poor families. In the era when sons were more important than women and the common people were living in difficult times, they were sold by their parents to brothels or military camps and used as tools for the soldiers to vent their desires. Their lives were very miserable. It didn't end well either.
In August 1918, the Emperor of Japan ordered to send troops to Siberia, in an attempt to interfere with the Russian revolution with armed force. These Japanese soldiers stayed in Sakhalin Island for about 7 years. During this period, many soldiers died of venereal diseases, and the number of them was far greater than the combat attrition. Therefore, how to solve the problem of physiological needs of soldiers when they are abroad has attracted the attention of the Japanese military. In order to solve the problem, the Japanese military began to recruit women who were engaged in sex trafficking into the army, that is, the aforementioned military prostitutes. After they serve the Japanese army, they will get a certain amount of remuneration, but the price is clearly limited by the military.
In the 1920s and 1930s, Japanese imperialism's foreign expansion ambitions continued to expand, and more and more soldiers left their homeland to station troops elsewhere. As a result, the Japanese army's demand for "comfort" is also growing. However, the international society strongly criticized Japan's behavior of selling women's personalities, which caused the Japanese government to put a lot of pressure on it. Since it is not possible to buy and sell women explicitly, it is to operate behind the scenes. After the "January 28 Incident", Japanese prostitutes lured young women to work in the "Navy Designated Comfort Station" in the name of recruiting "maids" and "military canteen waiters".
As early as the end of 1931, the Japanese Navy established four "comfort stations" in Hongkou, Shanghai. Since then, the "comfort women system" has spread throughout the East Asian battlefield, and there have been more and more incidents of Japanese invaders humiliating women in China, North Korea and other countries. The Japanese army forced or lured women in the occupied areas to be "comfort women", and countless women were violated. During World War II, "comfort women" became an indispensable necessity like the weapons and ammunition of the Japanese army. On the eve of the defeat of the Japanese army, in order to cover up their unforgivable crimes, they killed most of the "comfort women" in a frenzy.
Maybe many people only know the bad behavior of the Japanese army, but they don't know that the American soldiers are not much better. After Japan surrendered , the US military was stationed in Japan. In order to please the United States, the Japanese authorities ordered the establishment of military brothels where the US military was stationed, so that the US military could have more "entertainment" projects. The police of Ibaraki prefecture was ordered to convert the single police dormitory into a brothel, and recruited 20 women to "serve" the American soldiers, and the US military in Japan acquiesced to all this. According to Japanese historical records, during the peak period, Japan recruited 70,000 women as military prostitutes. They picked up customers an average of 15 to 60 times a day, and the fee charged each time was equivalent to the price of half a pack of cigarettes. Later, when more than 25 percent of the U.S. troops stationed in Japan contracted venereal diseases, MacArthur ordered the closure of all military brothels.
Compared with the behavior of the Japanese invaders in World War II, the U.S. military's behavior on the battlefield in Vietnam was even worse. After the end of World War II, Vietnam was divided into two factions, one was the Democratic Republic of Vietnam led by Ho Chi Minh, which is often referred to as North Vietnam, and the other was South Vietnam, which was established by the last emperor of Vietnam, Bao Dai, with the support of France. North Vietnam has close relations with the socialist countries the Soviet Union and China, while South Vietnam is closer to the capitalist countries. Both factions wanted to eliminate each other and thus unify Vietnam. In this case, Vietnam has a crisis of secession. With the support of their respective forces, the two sides went to war in 1955.
As mentioned earlier, the United States is very belligerent and likes to meddle in the internal affairs of other countries. Originally, the war between South Vietnam and North Vietnam belonged to the Vietnam Civil War . But under the intervention of the United States, it gradually developed into a large-scale local war that broke out in Southeast Asia. The U.S. intervened in this war because it did not want Vietnam to become a socialist country and to strengthen the Soviet Union. At that time, the whole world was in the midst of the Cold War. The United States and the Soviet Union were fighting openly and secretly for world hegemony and engaged in a arms race .If Ho Chi Minh unites Vietnam, then there will be one more socialist country in Asia, and there will be another obstacle on the way for the United States to return to the Asia-Pacific region. In addition, making Vietnam a puppet of the United States can also contain the development of New China. Then, at the end of April 1961, US President Kennedy ordered the addition of so-called military advisers in Vietnam, and also dispatched special forces to Vietnam to participate in the war. In order to support South Vietnam, the US military launched a large-scale bombing operation against North Vietnam. After the United States entered the war, the war situation was very unfavorable for North Vietnam. It can also be imagined with a toe that North Vietnam is not an opponent of the United States, and the gap between the two in weapons and equipment is too great. American soldiers marched forward and occupied many parts of Vietnam.
The North Vietnamese soldiers suffered heavy casualties and their combat effectiveness dropped sharply. When the nation is in crisis, the country is also facing the risk of being invaded and occupied by others. At this time, everyone has the obligation to defend the home and the country. During World War II, after the outbreak of the " Soviet-German war ", the Soviet side suffered heavy casualties. Those who could be soldiers had already entered the battlefield, and the remaining men were old, weak, sick and disabled. In order to defend the country, the women of the Soviet Union resolutely killed the enemy on the battlefield and became a unique landscape on the battlefield. Now Vietnam and the Soviet Union are facing the same predicament. Vietnamese women followed Soviet women and went to the battlefield.
Although female soldiers may be inferior to male soldiers in physical strength and frontal combat effectiveness, they also have advantages that male soldiers do not have. The Vietnamese female soldiers understood that they could not confront the American soldiers, and decided to start by destroying the enemy's logistical supplies. No matter how powerful a unit is, as long as its logistics cannot be guaranteed and ammunition and food cannot be replenished in time, it will not be arrogant for long. Vietnamese female soldiers disguised themselves as rural women, appeared in front of the US military as a weak person, deceived them and infiltrated the rear of the US military.Then, when the U.S. military was not paying attention, they burned the enemy's food and grass, or put laxatives and poisons in the food and water, which reduced the combat effectiveness of the U.S. military.
The disappearance of Vietnamese female soldiers has caused a headache for the US military. In order to get rid of Vietnamese female soldiers, the United States has thought of many ways. In response to this situation, the United States has developed a lot of drugs. The first, "empty pregnancy prolactin." It is a kind of "love potion" composed of pituitary hormone and other ingredients, which allows women to secrete milk without pregnancy. Moreover, no matter how stubborn women are, after taking this drug, they will not be able to control their desires and become very dissolute.
When Vietnamese female soldiers were caught by the US military, they were forcibly fed "empty pregnancy prolactin". Soon, their minds became awake and they were in a state of confusion. The U.S. military took the opportunity to obtain information from their mouths in an attempt to annihilate the other female soldiers in one fell swoop. When the medicine had worn off, the female soldiers regained their consciousness, recalled what they had done, and felt that they were ashamed of the country and the people, and most of them would choose to commit suicide to make up for their mistakes. It is understood that "empty pregnancy prolactin" is a mental drug, which will cause great damage to the body after taking it. Even women who survive will have mental problems later, and "empty pregnancy prolactin" has become their lifelong nightmare.
In addition to using obscene methods against Vietnamese female soldiers, American soldiers also abused many ordinary Vietnamese women in order to solve their own physical needs, leaving many American-Vietnamese mixed-race children in Vietnam. When the Vietnam War ended, the American soldiers patted their butts and left, leaving women and children to struggle to get by. In the eyes of others, Vietnamese mixed-race children are the children of the enemy, and they do not want to see them and their mothers. Some women are unmarried mothers. In order to have a support for the rest of their lives, they abandoned their children with American soldiers and married again.Therefore, many Vietnamese mixed-race children became orphans that no one wanted. These children have been discriminated against and bullied since childhood.
The United States has always liked to meddle in the internal affairs of other countries under the guise of human rights, and point fingers at other people's affairs. But after committing its own sins, it is unwilling to take responsibility. It stands to reason that they caused the Vietnamese mixed-race children, and they should take the responsibility to bring the children to the United States, at least to ensure their basic life. But at first, the United States did not have the slightest idea of this, let alone take the initiative to solve the Vietnamese mixed-race problem. It was not until the international public opinion strongly demanded the United States to give an explanation that the President of the United States sent a transport plane to Vietnam to pick up the children. Coincidentally, in the process of transporting mixed-race children, there was an air crash, the plane disintegrated, and more than 70 children were killed.
The US military also used a drug called " Agent Orange " on the Vietnam battlefield, causing more than 2 million children in Vietnam to suffer from pain and deformity. "Agent Orange" can make the jungle leaves, making it impossible for Vietnamese guerrillas to hide in the mountains and forests. But it can have a highly toxic effect on the nervous system, making the human head deformed. During the Vietnam War, the US military sprinkled a lot of "Agent Orange" in Vietnam, a total of 67 million liters. These drugs have caused more than 500,000 children in Vietnam to have developmental deformities, for example, their heads will become larger and larger, and more than 2 million children have suffered from diseases such as cancer . The average life expectancy of and of the victims is only about 10 years old. Some children are sent to charity places, and most of the children are left unattended.
However, the United States refuses to admit the sins it has committed, and tries to absolve itself of responsibility. So far, Vietnam is still unable to solve a series of problems caused by "Agent Orange" alone, and it is not supported both economically and technically. Vietnam can't ask for compensation from the United States, after all, the disparity between the two countries' national strength is too great.
Whether it is "Agent Orange" or "Empty Pregnancy Prolactin", it all proves how vicious the United States was back then. It used unscrupulous means to achieve its goals and used drugs that violated humanitarianism on the battlefield. It would never admit its crimes, let alone take responsibility Relevant responsibility, it is really hateful and hateful. There are few countries as brazen as the United States, I am afraid that there are few in the world.
