Saving how many, I wonder...
Here is the difference: during WW2 the Japanese were a cult of suicidal religious whackjobs, hell-bent on world domination and not caring how many of their own people died in the process, as long as they could kill as many of the round eyed hairy devils.
Then, the US convinced them to change their evil ways.
Today, the Japanese people are as nice as can be, and produce lots of worthful things that everyone in the world can enjoy.
