Japan was a powerful country before the world war. After USA destryoed Japan, it helped rebuilding it to this modern stage. Every country US has destroyed...they built it back. Japan, Germany, Korea, and now Iraq and Afganistan underway. Once they establish full order in Iraq and Afganistan they will rebuild those nations too. None of those country men were patriotic. They all sold out or lost to the higher power.

Development of Japan is due to the hardwork, honesty, and dedication of Japanese people. You add American blessing on the top of that you get all the prosperity you are seeing in Japan right now. If Japanese were patriotic they would reject everything US has done to them.

If India drops two Nukes in our cities and kills 2 million of us and then later rebuilds Nepal...we would still hate India for what it has done to us. If Japanese were patriotic they would be hating USA right now.
