Communists in the state department also handed China over to the commies there too. The Soviets were arming the Chinese communists with weapons confiscated from the retreating Japanese army. The Japanese had taken all the rice from the farmers, leaving them no rice to plant new crops, plus killing their oxen for meat as they retreated. It was at the point that the villagers were eating weeds and bark off of trees. After the war, with the roads and railways bombed out, relief supplies were bottlenecked at the harbors and could not get deep into the mainland. Meanwhile, the US State Department were trying to establish a coalition government between the Nationalists and Communists and as we all know, you can't trust commies to peacefully coexist with you. They set up a real shitshow and refused to arm the Nationalists for fear of seeming "partial" (despite the commies being armed with Japanese weapons). It was a real shitshow.
Communists in the us state dept. Forced the Japanese into war to take the pressure off their "uncle Joe ".
If I was Japanese I would have attacked us as well,they had no choice.........
