Agreed, though I would genuinely like to see a rebuttal.

Wouldn't be too hard to rebut. Just do some skimming over the Second Sino-Japanese War and Japanese actions/attitudes/writings towards the Chinese at the time. If one's time is short, just look up Japan's infamous Unit 731, who were involved in Japan's own "shock and awe" through providing the means (and gruesome testing) of carrying out Japan's chemical and biological warfare.

All countries do awful things during war, just some more deliberate and unethical than others.

As William Tecumseh Sherman once said, "War is Hell."
