Roosevelt ordered him to escape Corregidor, but his reply was a blatant bravado: "I will stand firm with my men.''

The following is from Masayuki Takayama's book "America and China Lie Selfimportantly," published on 2/28/2015.
This paper also proves that he is the one and only journalist in the postwar world.

A long time ago, an elderly female professor of the Royal Ballet School of Monaco, highly respected by prima ballerinas worldwide, visited Japan.
At that time, she spoke about the significance of an artist's existence.
She said, "Artists are important because they are the only ones who can shed light on hidden, concealed truths and express them."
No one would dispute her words.
It is no exaggeration to say that Masayuki Takayama is not only the one and only journalist in the postwar world but also the one and only artist in the postwar world.
On the other hand, Ōe, I don't want to speak ill of the deceased, but Murakami and many others who call themselves writers or think of themselves as artists are not even worthy of the name of artists.
They have only expressed the lies the Asahi Shimbun and others created rather than shedding light on hidden truths and telling them.
Their existence is not limited to Japan but is the same in other countries worldwide.
In other words, there are only a few true artists.
This paper is another excellent proof that I am right when I say that no one in the world today deserves the Nobel Prize in Literature more than Masayuki Takayama.
It is a must-read not only for the people of Japan but for people all over the world.

Every LDP member who chose Masuzoe for governor became Roosevelt.
MacArthur, who was in Manila, was roused by the news of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
Soon after, Japanese air forces from Taiwan flooded here.
Before that, his subordinates offered to attack Taiwan first in the opposite direction with the B17 bombers, the pride of the U.S. military at Clark Field. 
But for the next several hours, he remained in his quiver in his office and took no action. 
Why did he not move?
There were various speculations; for example, "He assumed that Japan would not attack here" (Michael Shearer, "The MacArthur Years"). 
But Japanese people know from up-close experience that MacArthur was too upset to take any action on the morning of the outbreak of the Korean War ten years later and for an entire day.
In short, he was a coward. 
Soon after, Clark Field was attacked by Type 96 Land Attack and Zero fighters, and about one hundred planes, including B17 bombers, were neatly buried.
The famous book "Sakai Saburo's Air Battle Diary " details it.
The cowardly commander did not intercept the Japanese landing at Lingayen Gulf but fled to Fort Corregidor, an island off the Bataan Peninsula.
A shelter in case of emergency greeted him before he had even gone a hundred yards.
His men, American soldiers, were also cowards.
As Lester Tenney, a victim and seller of the Bataan Death March, later wrote in his book, "We couldn't tell the difference between us and the Japanese soldiers. So we killed every local they met and headed for Bataan."
They were the ones who were brutal.
MacArthur remained holed up in a hole at Malinta, Corregidor, for the next three months until he escaped, making only one inspection of the battlefield on the Bataan peninsula. 
Soldiers at the front laughed at his cowardice and nicknamed him "Dugout Douglas," a reference to his ex-wife Louise's joke about her husband being "a great general by day, but a private by night." 
But MacArthur was not just caged up, either.
He poked his head out of his Walinta Tunnel and made one hundred and forty newspaper announcements in ninety days.
The contents were often fictionalized accounts of battles with fictitious Japanese forces and dramatic victories under his command" (M. Schaller).
Roosevelt was a master of the art of embellishing himself with grandiose exaggerations. 
Roosevelt, too, was fed up with MacArthur's grandstanding, but he did not want him to be taken prisoner by the Japanese as British commander Percival had been.
Roosevelt ordered him to escape Corregidor, but his reply was a blatant bravado: "I will stand firm with my men.''
In fact, he had already arranged for his escape and demanded "$500,000 as a reward for taking care of him" from the U.S. puppet government of President Quezon.
Quezon transferred the amount from the Philippine government's U.S. account to his account at the Chemical Bank of New York. 
After confirming the payment, he escaped from Corregidor in a torpedo boat, accompanied by his family and entourage, including Willoughby.
He was unable to board the submarine because of his claustrophobia. 
After suffering the unprecedented shame of fleeing in front of the enemy, he censored his work by "only allowing articles that were favorable to MacArthur to be published'' (Colonel L. Diller).
This censorship agency created and disseminated lies about the Bataan Death March and the Manila massacre based on the censorship standard that MacArthur was a hero, and the Japanese military was brutal.
It became the basis for GHQ's thorough censorship. 
Why did they turn Mac, a greedy and cowardly liar, into a hero while everyone around him frowned? 
Claire Luce of LIFE magazine continued to write his puff piece and said, "He had nothing but unsavory rumors. We kept it quiet because the morale of U.S. forces throughout the Far East had become inseparable from his military and personal prestige."
He said, "To undermine his prestige in the eyes of not only the U.S. military but also of the Asians and the Japanese whom he had ruled would undermine our military efforts at once." 
It was for the same reason that Roosevelt, over Eisenhower's objections, issued a letter of appreciation to the fugitive in front of an enemy. 
Since the prestige of the white race was at stake, any scumbag had to be made into a hero.
Yoichi Masuzoe reminds me of MacArthur back then.
Other candidates in the Tokyo gubernatorial race were Hosokawa Morihiro, who spoke out against nuclear power, and Tamogami Toshio, who spoke out for the righteous cause.
The Asahi Shimbun and the ignorant masses backed the former.
The people who care about Japan will side with the latter.
In fact, Tamogami accumulated 600,000 votes in the snow. 
And what about Masuzoe, the candidate the Liberal Democratic Party is pushing?
He took a parting shot at the LDP and left.
He was talkative and incompetent. He is also dirty with money.
He has 70 racehorses and a 100 million yen villa while his sister is on welfare.
He has a mistress who has given birth to his child and does not pay child support.
He also covered his mother's care with lies, not as a diaper.
He was also rude and talked a great deal. 
Even so, his ex-wife, Satsuki Katayama, supported him, saying, "Kill her ego."
An anonymous member of the Liberal Democratic Party said, "My heart is with Tamogami, but if the vote is split and it goes to Hosokawa, then Japan will fall apart."
They cried and cast their votes for him. 
That day, all LDP members became Roosevelts.
