I have just finished reading The Rape of Nanking, and I knew beforehand that the book holds more fiction than fact so I googled around to know more about the war and holy shit if it wasn't as I remember reading about it before. I quote one of the things that caught my eye while reading this Wiki page :

"The International Military Tribunal for the Far East estimated that 20,000 women were raped, including infants and the elderly. A large portion of these rapes were systematized in a process where soldiers would search door-to-door for young girls, with many women taken captive and gang raped. The women were often killed immediately after being raped, often through explicit mutilation or by stabbing a bayonet, long stick of bamboo, or other objects into the vagina. Young children were not exempt from these atrocities, and were cut open to allow Japanese soldiers to rape them"

CRYING. What's worse is the fact that Nanking Massacre happened during a six-week period. So many lives lost in such a short period of time.

Oh and don't click the links if you don't want your day to be ruined.
