    I guess the US should have just let Imperial Japan take China since apparently now all you need to do is want to grab territory real bad and that is enough justification.

          Yeah, without taking responsibility, accepting consequences, owning up to one’s actions and failures, facing the actual shame , etc ; there’s no way anyone would change their behaviour and erroneous ways.
