It is quite disturbing and shocking when a country as economically
developed as Japan distort its own history and brain wash students
with right-winged rhetoric by claiming that
systematic-forced-sex-slaves from China and Korea were mere
prostitutes.

Japan also claims that Japan's hostile colonial rule was beneficial
for the colonies.

If USA rationalize the bombing in Hiroshima by stating in the High
School text books "Hiroshima bombing have transformed Japan from a
barbaric war criminal into a peaceful economically developed country",
how would Japan feel about that?  Just because USA is a stronger
country, it does not necessarily mean they are right.

Japan, before becoming isolated by her Asian neighbors, repent and
start teaching the history the way it should be.  Remember the quote:
"Those who don't know history will be boomed to repeat it".  Does
Japan want to repeat Hiroshima??
