War and an unlikely hero: Schindler of Nanjing
http://news.independent.co.uk/world/asia/article1193091.ece
He was a Nazi who saved 250,000 as Japanese troops ravaged China's
capital in 1937. Now the story of John Rabe is to be made into a
Hollywood movie. Clifford Coonan reports

There was chaos on the streets of Nanjing in December 1937 when
Japanese troops stormed the Ming dynasty walls of what was then the
capital of China, bent on the slaughter still known as the "Rape of
Nanking", after the city's former name.
Thousands of residents were killed by the Japanese army, but for some,
a saviour was at hand - a member of the Nazi party who offered refuge
in the garden of his comfortable, grey-bricked house near the city
university and helped save the lives of more than 250,000 people.
