Hideki Tojo was a general in the Imperial Japanese Army whom served as Prime Minister of Japan from 1941 to 1944. As Prime Minister he was most directly responsible for the attack on Pearl Harbor. At the end of the war he was arrested, tried for war crimes and sentenced to death. Because the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor angered so many Americans, Tojo was treated mercilessly in American propaganda, pictures with huge buck teeth, thick glasses, and as villainous countenance. These drawings would now be considered racist. Music includes a bit of traditional Japanese music and some Japanese Kitaro drums.
