This Podcast about General Ishiwara Kanji, the mastermind behind the Mukden Incident of 1931 and author of the Final War Theory.

Ishiwara Kanji was a fascinating person and one whose actions changed the entire world. It could be argued Ishiwara Kanji single handedly caused World War Two. Ishiwara Kanji is known predominantly for two things, his role in the Mukden Incident and his Final War Theory.

Ishiwara Kanji sought for Japan to invade Manchuria to acquire her natural resources to build up the Japanese military in preparation for his theorized conflict against the United States. In a rather ironic twist, Ishiwara Kanji ushered in the invasion of Manchuria, but fought against escalating the war against China proper.

Ishiwara Kanji performed the Mukden Incident, a false flag operation kicking off the invasion of Manchuria. The Japanese first seized Mukden, then expanded to places like Kirin, Jinzhou, Jiangqiao, Harbin, until all of Manchuria was now under Japanese control. Yet Ishiwara Kanji did not seek a real war with China, his ultimate goal was simply to seize the resource rich part of Manchuria to build up Japan to face the United States. He sought an alliance with China and that of Asia in general.

He began a campaign of racial harmony and this led to the formation of Manchukuo. However Ishiwara and the rest of the Japanese military argued about how to treat China proper. Ishiwara created the Concordia association and fought to form an alliance. A rivalry emerged between the Kodoha and Toseiha factions and Ishiwara would find himself stuck in the February 26 coup d'état incident.

He survived the incident unharmed politically, but his fight to stop a war with China fell apart quickly. Despite his efforts to stop the conflict from escalating, the China War broke out. In his depression Ishiwara was going to lose his military career, but his fight against the China War would go on.
