Well...they probably should as in SHOULD apologize, but as many ransackings and killings of towns in all of history...many dont apologize. It would be to hard on pride,saying that it was wrong and too violent. Im not saying its right, but its the truth in my opinion....

If the victims were soldiers then there really isn't much to say. Still you have to obey the laws of war. But these were regular civilians.

Probably not. The Philippines isn't particularly vocal about it.

QUOTE(wonda51 @ Jan 13 2008, 12:51 AM) [snapback]3422383[/snapback] check poor Makapili out The "poor" Makapili is a militant group that served under the Japanese during the Second World War that has been accused of aiding Japanese war crimes and treasons by the Philippines government. Yeah, that's right -- It's members have been accused of aiding war crimes and treasons and put on trial by their own people and government. QUOTE How did the United States occupy the Philippines? Treaty of Paris in 1898, which Spain handed over Philippines to America. QUOTE How were they able to become independent? Treaty of Manila in 1946, which America handed over the control of Philippines to the natives after deeming that they can sufficiently function by themselves. What else do you need to have answered? |

Also remember the Japanese troops slaughtered the civilian population of Manila during its defence against the Americans.
