>>you'll note that your average chinese still hates china and refuses to believe Japan is not a military power anymore.

The US doesn't have to fear the Japanese military because the US is the superpower. The Japanese defence budget ranks the second in the world. It can make any weapon, including the nuclear, if it wants. If you were in Chinese postion, with millions of civilians mass murderred in the WWII, you would have reasons to worry about. Japan has never publicly, offically apologized to China for its war crime. Many Japanese don't think they did anything wrong.

Who has killed more Chinese, Chinese Communists or the Japanese? If memory serves, the Chinese Communists were responsible for the deaths of about 30,000,000 Chinese from 1950 onward, which pretty much answers that question. So, given that Japan is a democracy now, while China is still run by the same people who have murdered millions of Chinese in years past, one would think that the Chinese would be more concerned about their own gov't than they would be about the Japanese.

But excuse me, the body count resulted from CCP's rule (esp. from 1955 to 1976) far exceeds the death toll under 8 years of Japanese occupation. Granted, one'd be insane to whitewash the egregious crimes committed by Imperial Japan, but what makes PRC government and average anti-Japan Chinese so contemptible and unworthy of any sympathy in the eye's of the world is their total inability for introspection. For Chinese to condemn Japanese for refusing to face up to her own past sins, is akin to pot calling the kettle black. It's an oriental cultural thing. Let those Chinese bitch and whine about Japan until the cow comes home, unless they become brave enough to look at their own warts and spoils in the mirror.

Communists killed at the least ten fold more Chinese than Japanese.

She maight have no brain, but neither do you.

The man should attack the CCP.

But he probably is CCP. Just another example why the Communist ruled China will never get anywhere and will always pose a threat to the world.

Irrational and overtly knee-jek emotional thought.
