Japan has had a long history of imperialism and waging war with its neighbors particularly China, Korea and Taiwan. But the atrocities of World War Two have not been fully addressed. This backgrounder piece by Steve Herman does a fine job of explaining the long history of resentment by China and Korea toward Japan now seeking a diplomatic answer to these resentments. It may be too little too late and this piece highlights the mounting tensions that exist in Asia. This piece could run on any Pacific Rim station.
