	John Rabe - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		John Rabe (November 23, 1882 – January 5, 1950) was a German businessman who sought to rescue more than 250,000 Chinese from slaughter during the Nanjing Massacre.
		After the war, Rabe was denounced for his Nazi Party membership and arrested by the Russians first and then by the British.
		Rabe was partly supported by the monthly food and money parcels sent by the Chinese government for his actions during the Rape of Nanjing.

		Rabe clearly thought Hitler was going to save the German nation, put a gigantic Swastika flag in his backyard (to keep the Japanese from bombing his house) and frequently waved his Nazi armband at Japanese soldiers to shoo them away from women they were trying to rape.
		In the meantime, Rabe's fate was to live out his days, not as a hero, but as a little man, eeking out a meager existence, ashamed of his previous affiliation to a party linked with mass extermination, while going unrecognized for his efforts to stop another extermination halfway across the world.
		Rabe is a cross between an action hero and a Paul Giammatti character, a little man with only a limited sense of where the rat race is taking him, but the decency to do his best with the cards he's been dealt.

		Rabe and other members of the international committee meet the Japanese as they enter the city and attempt to explain the situation within the safety zone, asking that its boundaries be respected.
		Rabe and his fellow zone administrators attempt to stop the atrocities occurring in the city while working to ensure that the refugees within the safety zone are fed and nursed.
		After the war Rabe is said to have maintained that he never heard news of Nazi outrages while he was in China and only remained a member of the party to secure the subsidy he received from the German Government to finance a German School in Nanjing.

	The Good Man of Nanking: The Diaries of John Rabe - by Victor Fic
		Rabe cites an incident in which a Japanese soldier, passing a poor Chinese family sitting down to eat, paused to urinate in their common bowl of rice gruel.
		Rabe was chagrined that most Japanese in Nanking, instead of facing the truth and reforming, hid behind denials or excuses.
		Rabe's China diaries make it apparent that when he was in Nanking, this apolitical man seems never to have understood that the evil tide of fascism was flooding his homeland.

		You see, Herr Rabe was a Nazi party official in the Chinese city of Nanking, that beautiful, ancient city of Chinese Royalty a city famed for its magnificent mausoleum of Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the Chinese revolutionary (not in the communist sense) who attempted to bring this ancient land into the 20th.
		John Rabe organized a protective zone in which, during the high points of the terror over 300,000 Chinese sought refuge.
		Rabe himself would don his suit, prominently displaying his Swastika armband and go into the city, stopping rapes, admonishing Japanese soldiers, screaming at Japanese officers in fury, while pointing to the Swastika on his arm.

	Nanjing numbers, Rabe diary
		Dear Fukuzawans, I just finished the Nanjing diaries of John Rabe, the German businessman who was in Nanjing at the time of the Japanese attack and who was head of the International Safety Zone, which sheltered more than 200,000 refugees.
		Although Rabe and the other Europeans in Nanjing did not personally witness all the atrocities, they acted as a clearing house for reports from Chinese witnesses who came to them with the express hope of gathering and publicizing the Japanese crimes.
		The picture painted by Rabe comes no where near matching the "Holocaust" scale or gruesomeness alleged in Iris Chang's book, and it illustrates that the crimes were committed often against officers' orders and invariably to the distress of the Foreign Ministry representatives in Nanjing.

		Honoring Rabe, who died of a stroke in 1950 at age 67, gives China the chance to draw international attention to Japan's wartime atrocities at a point when relations between the two Asian giants are fragile.
		Rabe wrote a 1,200-page diary that documented the killings and rapes in the city, information that was later used as evidence of war crimes.
		Rabe was detained by the Gestapo for a short period, denounced by the Nazis and barred from giving lectures.

		John Rabe was a German citizen who lived in China from 1908 through 1938, mostly working for the Siemans China Company, first in Peking but later in Nanking.
		Rabe himself devoted all hours of day and night rushing through the city, pleading with Japanese authorities to provide food and an end to the chaos, often physically protecting Chinese citizens from Japanese soldiers by waving the swastika emblem on his arm right under Japanese noses.
		Rabe is an incredibly humble man, not given to exaggeration or self-praise, but writing in a low-key matter-of-fact manner that makes the atrocities all that more horrifying.

		Rabe's trials were not over when he returned to wartime Germany; diary entries that he wrote during the occupation of Berlin by the Soviet army form a fascinating coda to this book.
		But Rabe was also a member of the Nazi party and a man whose motto was "Right or wrong-my country." This gaping paradox adds a fascinating complexity to his newly translated diaries, which primarily focus on the six-month Nanking siege in 1937 and 1938.
		Lacking food and medical supplies, Rabe was mobilized to continue his good works by the atrocities he witnessed; his descriptions of the sadistic rapes, torture and slaughter perpetrated by Japanese soldiers are chillingly vivid.

		"Rabe was praised as a living bodhisattva, or living saviour, by those survivors, which is really high praise in Chinese culture," she said.
