Biological Warfare, 1932-45, & the American Cover-Up
In Manchuria, before & during WWII, the Japanese army conducted numerous horrifying scientific experiments upon live human beings, including those relating to bacteriological & chemical warfare. After the war, Japanese scientists who had been engaged in these activities were granted immunity from the US Army's investigation for war crimes in return for the results of their experiments.
Factories of Death details the activities of these scientists & the subsequent cover-up. It investigates sensitive topics like who knew of the experiments in the upper echelons of the Japanese military & political establishments, the question of whether Allied POWs were subjected to such tests & the nature of the deal that was brokered with US authorities after the war. Sheldon Harris has based his work on extensive field research in China & previously unavailable records from US governmental agencies & the KGB.
