[quote=DODGER,258813]Shesgottobe, I have no problem with you wanting to forgive the Japanese. Their acts in the Philippines are well documented. It is their Governments inability to admit publicly to the atrocities that they performed in the past that I have a problem with. They will not even admit that they forced woman to become Prostitutes for their Army. They where called “comfort Woman” They claim that the woman volunteered. They teach their children about the dropping of the bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima but fail to tell them the reason why. And as Frank has pointed out, Members of their government still go to worship at the shrine of what is in fact a bunch of War criminals. My post was not meant to infer any hatred on my part for the Japanese people. But I think any extreme form of nationalism is dangerous including all the flag waving at the Olympics. That is why the war started in the first place. Your Japanese friend “can do some about it” They have a vote. If enough of them think the way you say they do they have the power to find a government that reflects their views. So we all hold our collective breath and wait to hear the word, Sorry. Dodger.
