Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire I've built several rifles for Germans and one of them is a very good friend

I totally agree that we should get over the past and move on. With the Germans it pretty much has been that way. They are not particularly proud of the Nazi era, but they have been remorseful, apologetic and have, as a nation, moved on.
The Japanese on the other hand, still are in complete denial that they did anything wrong during the period leading up to and including WWII. High ranking members of the present government are still making statements denying their actions and are offended by other countries contradicting their denials. you would be surprised by what you would read in the history books in their schools. Every year, in August, they lament about being the victims of nuclear weapons, with NO mention as to what may have led to an attack like that. The fact that they started a war with us goes right by them. GET OVER IT!! move on.
