About Why we had to fight and the argument still continues...

The video: 抗日战争(1937-1945)Chinese war of Resistance against Japan is to commemorate the 7 • 7 Marco Polo Bridge Incident and the outbreak of the War of Resistance against Japan and also the Nanjing Massacre 70 anniversary. During that War (1937-1945) China lost 35 million civilians. Total 32 million military men and women died. Lots of women got raped by Japanese soldiers and forced to become comfort women. Besides, Japanese Army loot millions of tons of treasures from China and other Asian countries. The war has ended for more than six decades. However, facts can be distorted and history remade if political interests demand it, which is often truth with some right-wing Japanese politicians. Those hypocritical liars still look to war criminals as heroes and models for Japanese youth and even advocate for the war crimes. Also, Japan actually has military planners running their war to against its neighbors. That's the reason why argument still continues...

China vs. Japan in the 21st century

Textbooks are for the past. The Internet is for the future. What happened in World War II is now in full digital form, for the whole world to see, all the time, anywhere in the world. In 1900, China was a collapsing Qing Empire. In 1937, Japan launched a full-scale invasion of China. In 1941, Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. In 1945, USA dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. These truths are well-known to the world. What changed the world Forever was the BOMBING of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The USA not only proved to the world that it had the bomb but it would use it within a three day period. Japan was taken over by the military in the 30s and 40s. Japan was aligned with Nazi-Germany in World War II. The Truth is that Japan will have competition in the economic and cultural realm. Japan or Germany will never possess the capability to invade another nation, even although some Japanese crazy dreamers are still planning to do that. China, a nuclear-power in '64, could nuke them back to the prehistoric ages. Japan is a has-been nation. Stuck on four small island smaller than California and a shrinking, aging population, it will never be anything other than an economic power, which is just good cars, electronics for the world. The future will belong to China, 3rd largest nation on Earth, Earth's largest population, Earth's largest army, with nuclear weapons, man-in-space since '03, and '06, launching its lunar project in '07, $1 trillion in foreign reserves. Note the Japanese are different than the Germans. The Germans have been apologizing for 60 years. Japan has never given an apology.

Why we need a strong Motherland and how to control our nationalism?

To remember the war or the history is not just to document it correctly or let students learn a story. I believe what we learn from the past guides us to avoid tragedies like Nanjing, Bataan and Pearl Harbor in the future. As a Chinese, what I learn from our history books is that without a strong nation, no matter how unharmful you are to the world, how strongly you wish to be friendly to your neighbors, "incidents" such as Nanjing will happen to you. China's peace relies on China's strength, a strong economy, a free society and a powerful military. I have to agree that [just like the Japanese text book] Chinese history books are also biased. China has a long infamous history of invading her own neighbors, such as Korea and Vietnam in 1000 years ago....I hope our generation of young Chinese can establish an image of elephant of China as an elephant, strong and peaceful, not a sheep, not hyenas.
