Sure but it scarred the Japanese culture permanently.
Could you expand on what exactly you mean by “scarring” a culture?
It seems young Japanese doesn't even know who bombed their country. US controls most of the world media: they can highlight or hide any fact, or inculcate whatever interpretation.
