wchao37 Shanhuang, it seems to be a rightist forum
He says they are bringing this post for discussion because it was "extolled" by forumites in China, so they want to see comparable reaction from the Japanese audience.
As expected from the kind of accounts of WWII they have been reading inside and outside of classrooms, the Japanese have a completely different feedback on the key points.
Most of them denied the Nanjing Massacre and laughed at the 300,000 figure as "unverifiable."
One guy repeated the same argument fielded by Japan apologists all over the world including lauguan kim that more Chinese died in the Chinese civil war, the various political upheavals such as the Great Leap Forward, the CR, the T A M incident, and said the total number of deaths from these episodes exceeded the number killed by the Jap soldiers.
In short, they denied it as expected.
Soudenjapan showed his/her own query by highlighting the part of the post where i said the Chinese had suffered the most and made the greatest contributions towards the final defeat of the Japanese imperialists.
He asked me in the V-60 post why it is that the Chinese do not feel grateful towards the Americans for saving them from defeat.
He apparently had been brought up receiving an education in post-war Japan controlled by the Americans -- whose natural gift for hyperbole and patting on their own backs are so infamous.
This shows the gap between Chinese and Japanese perceptions of the last war.
As I said, the Original Sin was laid down by the Americans who preserved the imperial system under the same emperor whose hands were stained with the blood of 35 million Chinese victims and many more of other Asians.
