Yeah, the residents of Agana (Guam), Tokyo (Japan), Dresden (Germany), Stalingrad (Russia), etc., might put up an argument, too.

The author is obviously Filipino-centric in his viewpoint. Reasonable to still hate the Japanese for what they did, but stupid to hate the Americans for stopping them. Thank goodness that territory isn't our responsibility any more, with idiots like that living there.
