Ah yes, Imperial Japan, known for it's incredible humanity toward civilians.

Yeah especially considering their attitude toward civilians in Nanking/Nanjing, Manchuria and The Philippines.
And Korea and everyone, right? The us had its racism, blocking of black pilots for most of the war, and rounding up and basically forcing the loss of businesses for Japanese Americans. It's painful to imagine my grandparents supported all those things too, cause I asked them. Imagine the after the war differences too.
