Counterintelligence warriors

THE INSTRUCTIONS ON THE COVER
NARRATOR
Be cautious. Be cautious.
Walls have ears, and sake decanters have mouths.
Nobody would ever think the walls have ears.
(As you pull the slide)
PERSON 1
Are you sure you can say such a thing?
PERSON 2
Don’t worry. Nobody is around.
Card 1
NARRATOR (continued)
Walls have ears.
We [Japanese] citizens are all on the front lines of the intelligence war. We have to become protective walls to prevent counterintelligence activities.
Spies are everywhere. They attach their ears to these very walls and try to drill a hole.
Everywhere is a target.
(As you pull the slide)
NARRATOR (continued)
When you think of counterintelligence, some of you only consider,
Card 2
NARRATOR (continued)
“Don’t leak secrets.â€Â
“Be cautious of foreigners.â€Â
Some of you look unconcerned, but real counterintelligence is absolutely not this easy.
Not to leak secrets is one type of counterintelligence.
Home front citizens should pay particular attention to it.
However, if you become relaxed, thinking you are executing counterintelligence perfectly, you may make a grave error.
(Pull the slide quickly.)
Card 3
ROOSEVELT
Although we lost military combat with Japan, we’ll certainly beat them in a spy war.
NARRATOR
The US, which bitterly lost the naval battle in Hawaii and is gradually being squeezed out of the Great Asian Seas, along with Britain, make a desperate attempt to attack Japan in the intelligence war they have prepared for many years.
(Pull the slide.)
Card 4
4. INSERT 1
NARRATOR (continued)
“Banzai, banzai.â€Â
Singapore fell. Dutch Indonesia surrendered. We completely captured half of the Bataan Peninsula. Peace is restored in Burma, etc.
While the Imperial Army is winning battles at the front line, enemy spies aim at the home front.
(As you pull the insert)
NARRATOR (continued)
Intelligence
(Stop insert for a second)
Saturday and Sunday communication
(Stop insert for a second)
Conspiracy
(Pull the insert completely.)
NARRATOR (continued)
The enemies generally attack using these three methods.
(Pull the slide.)
Card 5
(Insert)
Card 5
NARRATOR (continued)
They take pictures of boys and girls of labor service groups and explain that Japan has a shortage of labor forces and collects boys and girls for forced labor.
The enemies turn the facts upside down and tactically propagate false information to make people believe that Japan will soon collapse.
(Pull the slide.)
Card 6
NARRATOR (continued)
“I heard that the 〇〇 region was air raided and most of the critical facilities were bombed.â€Â
“Hm. Is that right?â€Â
Haven’t some of you heard something like this and passed that information to somebody else?
You never know when and how terrible propaganda will spread in this long war. Let’s pay careful attention not to fall prey to the enemy spies.
(Pull the slide quickly.)
NARRATOR (continued)
“Reverse propaganda (reverse false information)!â€Â
Card 7
NARRATOR (continued)
“We are running out of tissue paper.â€Â
“We are running out of soap.â€Â
Enemy spy networks produce and propagate this type of false information.
It’s a bad habit of Japanese citizens to instantly believe without questioning the source. One conveys the message to another and so on. Almost the entire Japanese population,
(Pull the slide.)
Card 8
NARRATOR (continued)
It’s often the case that you end up working for the spies. Without your knowing, spies may talk you into working for them!
If such a thing happens, it’ll be a disaster.
(As you pull the slide)
NARRATOR (continued)
Limited inventories, hoarding, black market, and the rampant flu that occurred after the Second Sino-Japanese War were all operated by the enemies’ plot.
Card 9
NARRATOR (continued)
Spies burnt cotton worth several million yen in Dalian in a single night. A group that set close to a hundred factories and other critical facilities in the Kanto region on fire was arrested after June 1935.
(Pull the slide.)
Card 10
NARRATOR (continued)
Wars are not limited to the battlefields. Both soldiers in the battlefields and citizens at the home front all participate in the war. Wars are all the forces of human and material resources combined.
Therefore, the current intelligence war has further-reaching targets than before and is of increasing ingenuity.
Thus, today,
(As you pull the slide)
NARRATOR (continued)
Intelligence could exercise a threatening power to such an extent that, to summarize, “One spy could ruin a nation.â€Â
Card 11
NARRATOR (continued)
Intelligence agents search and collect information that appears non-secretive, organizing it to learn their enemy country’s situation.
Propaganda and conspiracy are now targeted at individual citizens. Please be particularly cautious.
Therefore,
(Pull the slide.)
Card 12
NARRATOR (continued)
Every citizen should take responsibility to protect your facilities and work. Self-defense calls for attention, caution, and prevention against intelligence, propaganda, and conspiracy.
Every citizen should voluntarily cooperate to regulate according to the laws. If they are given intelligence-related instructions, you should immediately follow them without necessarily relying on the laws. If you have doubts about the measures to be taken, report to the authorities and receive guidance from them.
Report to the authorities immediately when you hear suspicious information or a rumor.
(Pull the slide.)
Card 13
NARRATOR (continued)
Spies are after the information that some citizens have at work or at home. If each of us is careful not to reveal information, the spies will be helpless.
You can ruin spies’ work if you march straight toward the national goal without being distracted by lousy propaganda.
(Pull the slide.)
Card 14
NARRATOR (continued)
Conspiracy is the same.
Guard factories, warehouses, and workplaces. Take caution against arson and explosions. Don’t complain and endure hardships. Whatever idea may be whispered into your ears, don’t be influenced. Expel it with your firm Japanese spirit. These counterintelligence measures would not allow enemies to approach us.
(Pull the slide.)
Card 15
NARRATOR (continued)
It’s up to us, every citizen, to fight the counterintelligence war.
Each of us is simultaneously a counterintelligence warrior and the core of the counterintelligence movement.
(As you pull the slide)
NARRATOR (continued)
To practice counterintelligence,
Card 16
NARRATOR (continued)
To be a real Japanese citizen!
Keep up with the authentic Japanese spirit in your words and deeds.
This is the essence of counterintelligence.
If you perfect it, there are no errors to be made.
(A pause)
(Pull the slide quietly.)
Card 17
NARRATOR (continued)
Foreign worship without check is an enemy to counterintelligence. It becomes an obstacle and gives spies secret targets.
Foreign worship provides benefits to foreign nations but brings none to Japan. We should work together to expel both American and English phobia and glorification of the West.
(Pull the slide.)
NARRATOR (continued)
Secret battles are indeed at their peak.
Card 18
NARRATOR (continued)
We citizens are frontline intelligence warriors. Those who control are support units. We should be aware of our responsibilities in the fight. It’s our utmost duty for the home front citizens to practice counterintelligence in our life without questioning it, win the intelligence war, perfectly practice wartime self-defense in Japan, and render services to [the Emperor].
As a result, we can victoriously conclude the Pacific War and achieve the Empire’s mission.
