Well, killing dogs for food isn't much of a crime, but torturing it
with slow death is BIG time crime. Japan history has a culture of
torture both for sport and study - from Shogun to Unit 731 - and they
include humans! Hope history does not repeat, come future wars.

Why resort to torture? It only brings out the ugly side of a people,
nothing to brag about even if it is for 'scientific research'. Unit
731 put on a stain and stigma on the Japanese, which will take several
more decades to erase. Nothing glorious for sure, whether it is for
the emperor or not.
