[lbo-talk] Re: international guilt tripping

[frank scott]

"...A number of Asian countries suffered untold hardships thanks to
Japan's
aggression during World War II, and all have been waiting for similar
apologies from Tokyo. But Japan has held a completely different attitude
towards its past crimes from those the Germans have put forth..."

too bad clinton isn't running the communist-capitalist regime in
china...he could apologize to the rest of asia...and then to china, for
all the terrible things mao did to his people...then to the usa for
pearl harbor...etc.

and isn't the world a much better place for its billions in poverty, now
that germany has apologized, endlessly, for its sins?

nice to know that europeans don't have a monopoly on  guilt tripping,
whether based on history of legend...
