I certainly don't blame all Japanese, and I personally don't even blame Hirohito or the Imperial Family. I pretty much blame Tojo's shogunate delusions.

I think he was talking about the present. Take yourself back to 1941 and I'm sure the americans hated and blamed all Japanese. So unless you hold a grudge for every crime commited in the past, I don't see why you even mention Pearl Harbour. In fact, I don't see why anyone mentions anything that they didn't live through when it comes to this kind of topic.
Americans might feel hurt and discriminated against, but that is only because certain americans have given others the chance to do that. And I'm sure, in another 50 years or century, it will be another country that will be hated by the world. You're just unlucky to be living through it, but it passes.
