An important, sensitive and responsible statement. Abe should leave his personal reservations about the content of any Japanese apology to the confines of his own bedroom.

But jeez I get sick of hearing Korean and Chinese complaints about the quality of Japanese apologies. Just let it go, people. Get on with existing harmoniously together. Leave the past in the past if you really want a better future.

So Tamarama, you must be sick of hearing the Jews talk about the Holocaust. BTW, the reason why the Koreans, and Chinese are angry is because the Japanese never owned up to the atrocities they caused in the Pacific. Type Japanese War Crimes and see what pops up on the internet. You can't believe the things the Japanese did to others. Japan will be a bigger country in the eyes of the world if they atone for their war crimes like the Germans. Saying "Sorry" and honoring war criminals is not sincere enough. The Japanese are doing a great job of erasing history, but only the Koreans and Chinese won't let them forget. The Japanese will not let you forget Hiroshima and Nagasaki, why should the world let them forget the bombing or Pearl Harbor, rape of Nanking, live human experimentation, chemical and biological warfare, forced prostitution of women (comfort women), etc...It is estimated that the Imperial Japanese Army killed 6 million to 10 million people in the Pacific (mostly Chinese)...Those Who Forget the Past are Doomed to Repeat It...George Santayana
