Reijiro Wakatsuki (L) attends a meeting with other government officials in the wake of the Manchurian Incident (Sept. 18, 1931). Wakatsuki was too weak to prevent the Kwantung Army, and too timid to stop the following war using his administrative powers. Instead, Wakatsuki chose to be silent, and even subtly encouraged the war by expanding Japan's military budget. Little did he know that his intentional omission of duty would later ruin the entire Japan. [Photo/Sina] |
