Japan didn’t “Change” history, they have never admitted to it.

I have changed my mind about this. I feel it’s really an important issue. Japan needs to apologise to my country and people over the Japanese invasion and stop mimimising the atrocities they did.

Lately, there has been a lot of news about the riots and protests against the Japanese government’s new text books that “Change” History. Something about not admitting to the atrocities that was done in China during the second world war. There is much hoopla with riots and violence to Japanese people in Beijing.

You know what? It’s not a “new” text book, it’s the same text book they have written since 1945. They haven’t “changed” their position, and it’s the same story they have been telling for over 50 years. If you haven’t noticed Japan has yet to apologized for invading our country in 1937.

So why now? Does it have something to do with pushing the news of Chief Executive and the changing of the basic law out of the front pages?

Nothing like reminding people who actually fought the Japanese government for the greater good of all Chinese and why there is a reason they are in power. I totally agree that Japan needs to apologize and start telling the truth, but for a country that rewrites history regularly about it’s own people to her own people. It seems somewhat disingenuous to make such a big fuss don’t you think?
