LH, it's hardly surprising, is it, that there was such hatred towards the Japanese in the 50's and 60's - we had just come out of a world war, and the atrocities committed by the Japanese against allied military personnel and civilians in the Japanese theatre of operations (all carried out in the name of 'Bushido' - Honour) were truly beyond belief.

That's not to say, of course, that 65 years on there should be a continuation of that hatred. But it was perfectly understandable at the time?
