Unit 731 was a covert biological warfare R&D unit in Imperial Japan that engaged in lethal human experimentation. They would perform vivisections (autopsies with a living subject) and intentionally infect people with diseases (smallpox, plagues, typhus, anthrax, etc). This was all in the name of science, so it was probably "justified" /s.
Today we discuss the history of this program and how those institutions justified crimes against humanity.

The 1970s was not only the age of M*A*S*H, heavy cologne to mask body odor and flammable mattresses. It was also dubbed the "Global Age of Terror", especially in Western Europe. You had national separatist groups, anti imperialist and straight communists blowing stuff up and kidnapping people on a regular basis. The worst cases were in West Germany, being that it was the borderland between two massive Empires trying to subvert each other every chance they got. In the episode we discuss how the Western German government cracked down on militant groups, while always trying not to go too far given their … you know..

Today we discuss the brutal murder of a European Monarchie, hyper nationalism in Serbia and the origins of the secret regicide network known as the “Black Hand” (you know, the guys who kill Archduke Ferdinand).
As Ralph Raico says – “The immediate origins of the 1914 war lie in the twisted politics of the Kingdom of Serbia.[1] In June, 1903, Serbian army officers murdered their king and queen in the palace and threw their bodies out a window, at the same time massacring various royal relations, cabinet ministers, and members of the palace guards. It was an act that horrified and disgusted many in the civilized world. The military clique replaced the pro-Austrian Obrenovic dynasty with the anti-Austrian Karageorgevics. The new government pursued a pro-Russian, Pan-Slavist policy, and a network of secret societies sprang up, closely linked to the government, whose goal was the ‘liberation’ of the Serb subjects of Austria (and Turkey), and perhaps the other South Slavs as well.”
Did you say murder? Well now I need to listen.
