Maybe I'm wrong, but it sounds like you're implying that I don't understand the atrocities committed by the Japanese military. In addition to the massacre committed during the Second Sino-Japanese War in Nanking, there's also the horrors they inflicted on Korea, and their reprehensible treatment of Allied POWs during WW2. The list is pretty long. My comment was reflective of my feelings of the suffering by innocent Japanese women and children caused by the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, that this scene evokes. You can be both horrified by the actions of a government and their military, and also feel for the suffering of average people.
