[quote="Short Hand":1ae6c]If you knew 1 thing about their culture, it was that the emperor = living God, they would not second question him. BUT of course, you care little for that, All you care about is justfying a war crime to keep you concious clean. rolleyes:[/quote:1ae6c]

The emporers were raised in seclusion from the rest of society until it was time for them to lead, when Hirohito took his position as Emporer he had no idea how to lead, and he had no idea what normal life was like.

His advisors took advantage of his social ineptness, they didn't directly disobey him.
