Hideki Tojo



Hideki Tojo (1884–????) was a General in the Imperial Japanese Army, an ultranationalist thinker, and served as the 40th Prime Minister of Japan

Hideki Tojo in Days of Infamy
Hideki Tojo gave his blessing to the invasion of Hawaii in December, 1941, despite his misgivings as an army general.

Hideki Tojo in Worldwar
Hideki Tojo led Japan during the aborted World War II and the invasion of the Race's Conquest Fleet. Under his administration, hundreds of thousands of Chinese, Filipino and Korean civilians and Allied prisoners of war were abused, enslaved, tortured, starved, raped, and subjected to brutal medical experimentation. Prisoners from the Race's Conquest Fleet were treated similarly and were often forcibly addicted to ginger to make them more tractable.

Tojo survived the Race's destruction of Tokyo with an atomic bomb and lived to see Atvar call for a peace conference at Cairo in 1944. Japan was invited, and Tojo sent Shigenori Togo to represent him.

Given how barbarically Tojo had treated Americans and their allies in World War II, one might have expected the United States to put pressure on Japan to oust him when the smaller country fell within the larger one's economic sphere of influence after the Peace of Cairo. However, Tojo was still prime minister in 1966 at the age of eighty-two. He attended the funeral of President Earl Warren in Little Rock, Arkansas.
