I am a long term practioner of TJJ and I have been researching its history. I have found that the true mentality of TJJ was meant to kill someone on a battlefield not to be nice to them and practice the love thy enemy routine. that practice came into effect when the feudal dynasties came to an end and AikiJuJitsu started to develope as an aristocrated art. As far as it being the founder of Judo and Karate I can say this . most Japanese systems are Jujitsu based, But karate originated in china and then went to okinawa. and the reason Jujitsu strikes look alot like karate strikes is because they were influenced by Kenpo ( chinese boxing )
Oh and one more thing I am not sur about this but I think that Jujitsu was supposed to be the subtle science but on this fact I have no real fact I am just guessing
