My country would never commit serious war crimes but they'd teach us about it if they did.

We do want them to feel ashamed of their actions. They clearly are.

Our war criminals are ashamed? Or have I misinterpreted

The Japanese seem to be ashamed of their actions in Nanjing. To me that’s half the battle. Now they need to own it and vow to never let it happen again.

To be clear, this post is more a satirical jab at how Japan is often criticised for their national attitude towards their WWII war crimes (in contrast to postwar Germanys attitudes) while the victors similarly fail to educate their citizens on their own major war crimes and atrocities.
