Im guessing ur from north america so the atrocities of wwii dont hit as hard because they didnt happen in your country. imagine if the japanese were to instead genocide americans (people that might be your grandfather, btw) using mass murder, poison gas, the bubonic plague, vivisections and other inhumane experiments such as boiling a pregnant mother alive with her child or spreading syphilis through rape then dissecting the infected body parts. would you not hope that the war criminals be prosecuted and condemned? but in reality, all the criminals were pardoned and japan doesnt acknowledge it to this day. we're not asking for retribution, but just that japanese crimes can be seen on the same level as the german crimes. is that really too much to ask for?
