I agree... prolly more like England and Germany. :wink:Ted said:The Chinese I speak dislike the Japanese and vice versa. One compared it with Holland and Germany, but I think this is going much deeper!

WarMachine said:They're both jerks, China and Japan. They can't resolve the issues of their past without first talking to each other. The japanese have a strong sense of pride in their country, chinese domenstrations only make the japanese feel more alienated. China has a strong sense of nationalism, and i think it's hyprocritical to say japan ignores the abuses of human rights in the past when the chinese commit them on a daily basis. Both countries need to communicate and resolve their issues just like Germany did with the rest of Europe. France and Russia like Germany a lot these days, but those countries suffered from the german occupation of their land in ww2. If that can be forgiven, then i think there's hope in resolving the problems in the far east.

Because Amrrica, China,Russia,and Korea all suffered from Japan,all the four countries do really know that Japan is a dangerous one.They should be careful about Japan.
I bet this would all go away if their PMs would stop visiting shrines that have a few war criminals. To be fair i'm pretty sure they're mostly honoring the non criminals but they're all honored together so what can you do?
CABAL said:What's more concerning is that there have been referrals of Japan to re-militarize, especially from Japanese Nationalists who are gaining traction in Japan's Political structure. Many of them simply do not want China to rise or to become a major power in this region. The situation between China and Japan has nothing to do with Koizumi's shrine visit. The two countries are inter-locked in border disputes and disputes over natural resources.
