This is a great article. It is kind of interesting reading about differing perspectives on the topic of responsibility. I don't know how you would handle something like that. I personally believe the Japanese are responsible, but how does a japanese individual grapple with that load. Interesting indeed.

True evil exists. Bushido Japan was the personification of true evil.

While most Japanese still seem to see World War II - known here as the Pacific War - as a colossal mistake, there is also a growing movement to find reasons to be proud of the war. A slew of movies, novels and comics have appeared extolling the bravery of Japanese soldiers and sailors. The evil begins to reemerge from the ashes of the last horror. The future may bring yet more fantastic evil straight from hell.
The parallels to Islamic fascism and terrorism are obvious.
