The great historical editing...

Well, it has been a rather hectic week with a lot of homework, but i just could not stop myself from writing this.

If you people had been paying attention to the news lately, you would know that Japan is back to its old trick of rewriting history to suits its purpose. I do not think there is a need to quote a portion of it here as our school have enough people from china and just a single thought of this would send them into a frenzy of attacking the japanese.

As we all know, the chinese in mainland china had riot and the like. Well, in a riot, the most obvious target would be the Japan embassy in China. Here is the joke, remember that it was Japan who changed the history book and started the conflict. Rioters threw things into the embassy and broke several windows. Japan then uses all its might and its arrogance and asked the china government to apologise to them.

Anyone, who is not mad about Jap anime would see this as the ultimate insult. Does anyone of you read the very stupid comic called "la bi xiao xing"? Well, perhaps Japanese Government want to be just like the main character, the stupidest person who is laughed at by everyone by does not realise it.

I mean, if the japanese government wants to rewrite history, they also have to spare a "thought" for the atrocities that they had commited. Over thousands killed in Nanjing, the sook ching in Singapore, the death railway in thailand. I do not think that it is just korea and china to be afraid of this, but the countries in South east asia which suffered dearly in the hands of the japanese.

Lets get a bit of perspective shall we? Firstly, history book is written by the victors, so in a certian sense, history is never true. But this is getting way too absurd, for example "We INVADED countries in SOUTH EAST ASIA so that we can FREE THEM FROM COLONIAL RULE!!!!????!?" Do you think i would believe that?! It is a pile of utter rubbish.

Oh, its been over 60 years, wake up Japan, history might have been rewritten but it is by the victors. And please, for god sake, don't let history repeat itself.

Finally, JAPAN, you have yet to apologise for what you had done... Wait, i doubt that would be possible when a bunch of people in Japan are bringing people to court for announcing to the world the things that Japan had done wrong. If this continues..., well, do you think i need to explain...
