Japan apologizes to Canada

[Mike K]

In contrast with Germany , Japan has never taken any steps towards a genuine overall ' owning up' over what actually occured . The present education system in Japan, is totally devoid of any mention of Japans aggression .

Younger generations there , have no idea of their own countries history in this field. Indeed, what is often brought forward is the opposite theme, the atomic bomb is blamed on US aggression .

The whole abhorant Asian/Pacific conquest is virtually unknown of to much of the population . Mention it to anyone under 40 years old in Japan and you will get blank faces .... MIKE
