Of course the Japanese are embarassed of it. But ask someone from the United States about Japanese internment and they are embarassed as well. I know how Japanese feel about such things, my friend Tomomi would agree. But I never said "The Japanese were proud of what they did at pearl harbour." or even "The Japanese had a good reason to attack Pearl Harbour." I simply said the United States was wrong to bomb them.
