Japanese Players: Your opinions please?
« on: May 23, 2001, 10:37:00 AM »
Read this story: http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/134298397_asian23.html

And give me your opinions, I'm curious as to your thoughts.

As far as I'm concerned, there's a big difference between the "Imperialist Japanese" that fought the war against the Allies, and the japanese that were not Imperialists.

What I find interesting is the article quotes a Japanese stating ""I hope people are more educated now,I'm hoping it doesn't create any backlash on our grandchildren who are still in elementary school."  

But the way I understand it was the Japanese  baby boom generation were never told of the Imperialist Japanese atrocities when they were in school after the war.

I'll answer my own question... Yes they do.
