And a Seemingly Informed Japanese Opinion Surrounding hthe Textbook debate....

From 2001.

the conservative and progressive camps in Japan have long been conducting a battle over how to view this country, and the current main battleground is over how its history should be taught--whether it should be presented as history education for the "nation," or "people" (kokumin, with overtones of national solidarity) or rather as history education for "citizens" (shimin, with overtones of democracy and individual rights). That much is undeniable, as is the fact that the history textbook issue has once again become a major bone of contention in Japan's relations with South Korea and China.

Read it yourself here.

So Japan has been dealing with what their place is in the world. Seems kind of like an adult approach. All the while, we get a juvenile approach from China....All Japanese are bad... What if there were marches on the streets of New York saying all Chinese are bad?

Good going Chinese Communist Party for the mess you are process of orchestrating. Let's broadcast to the world that China is a country of biggots, which I am afraid is farily close to the truth.
