The important thing now is to include as much positive discussion and action to keep a strong and growing friendship with our Japanese Allies.

Agreed. Like Racehorse, I also respect those who can neither forget nor forgive Japanese atrocities.

(Did you know that the US Marines fought Koreans in 1871? It was our first real contact with Korea?)

I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing. :)

Of French History, I'm astonished by the unusual fearlessness of French foreign missionaries (especially the martyrs). Koreans often accepted the Christian message much more openly than many other East Asian nations. It's for that reason the devil hates Koreans and has been trying to destroy them for the past century. A parallel is a history of Ireland. When such wickedness happens to a people, it could only prove the existence of a pure evil.
