Do you think the Japs were worse?
I agree that they were probably equally racist, but I don't know that they set up extermination camps as did the Germans.
I am friends with a lady who is a survivor of a Japanes concentration camp, she has some interesting stories. Born in the Netherlands, she was in Sumatra, Dutch East Indies, when the Japs overran it. She spent the rest of the war in the camp.

I agree that they were probably equally racist, but I don't know that they set up extermination camps as did the Germans. The type of camps isn't the determining factor. The Nazis had a unique method of murder, which is why we remember.
Read about the rape of Nanking or the Bataan death march if you want to know about these people. What they did to the Chinese and Koreans is an undertold story.
I guess the amount of evil is a matter of debate. One thing is sure, they are where they belong, hell.
