China and Japan: Seven decades of bitterness understand, happening, including, posting, against

Quest

To understand the CCP's "nationalism" and blind "patriotism" movements that caused restless "rife" since the 90s (including the fight for dioyetai island) is to understand what has been happening since WWII.

Although this BBC posting is not in-depth, it does touched on both sides of the story with fairness and just (the usual BBC way), not bias'ed against one side or another.

Read up and try to understand what has happened (in the past) before you become blindsided with patriotism or whatever CCP wants you to believe in...

Lastly: don't forget June 4th massacre that happened right before our own very eyes.

I lived through the 60s in HK: A lot of HK people then still had very bad impression of the war and Japanese. We were taught at school the war was won at great loss.
It was not until the white washing of Japanese TV shows and fashion products from the 70s onward that changed the newer generations of HK people.  It has nothing to do with June 4 or what the CCP told people. Just look at the Koreans, they are not forgetful to what the Japanese did in the war.
I still cannot understand why Japanese cannot accept their responsibilities like the German people: If you are wrong, accept your mistake and move forward. Denying or lying just make matter worse and get people angry.
