Sorry guys, I did not generalise by saying "What Japan did", but "What the Japanese
military did". And if the shrine does honour these "Japanese devils" (a Chinese ethnic slur for Japanese people), and it's straining relations with China and Korea, then does this shrine really deserve to exist? If the Japanese government do not apologise to China or to Korea for their war time wrongdoings, then relations with these countries will get worse.
Anyway, I
love Japanese people and their culture, and the Japanese people today are MUCH friendlier towards foreigners than say 70 years ago.
