サイトのタイトルからして???Society the Dissmination of Historical Factって?

Mission Statementの出だしがこんな感じ。

The historical facts of modern Japan, especially where they concern relations with neighbor nations, remain largely unknown to the English-speaking world. Several factors have contributed to this situation. For a long period of time there were frequent conflicts between Japan and her neighbors. During the conflicts, Chinese war propaganda took precedence over the objective exposition of facts in English-language literature. After war between the two nations ended, a single-party, autocratic regime both heavily censored information and continued to operate China’s powerful propaganda machine. Typical of such propaganda is the preposterous claim that Japanese military personnel slaughtered 300,000 civilians in Nanking, in spite of the fact that there were only 200,000 residents there. This number is still claimed as fact even today.

もうはなっから、なんつうか。日本と近隣諸国が長年紛争状態にあったんで、中国のプロパガンダが支配してしまい、正しい歴史的事実が伝わらなかったなんて、書いてるこっちが恥ずかしくなっちゃうからやめてー!

それじゃまるで日本人が長年中国のプロパガンダになすがままで、その上英語もまるでできないあふぉばかりだった、て言ってるようなものだよ。え〜ん。
