what is the correct attitude to the relationship between china and japan??

My family served in WW2, we are classified as Japanese, we fought against the Nazi who were together with Japan as the Axis Power, so we are so-called Japanese American, canyou imagine brother fighting against brother? This is what happen in America and soon will happen to Taiwan, Shang Kai Sheck was a dictator like Chairman Mao, these are two brothers, the same thing happen between North and the South of US, and in the Bible, Jacob and Esau, there will always have brother against brother. Mainland China has more subs and ships to blow US out of the water, they also have the biggest Army, US will not help Taiwan, they already trade with Mainland China, too much money is invested in China and not Taiwan, Taiwan has no chance to win a war, they will surrender, they have had their time to make money with the world, they will be like Hong Kong surrender to China. Mainland China is very patienct they know in time they will take over Taiwan, Japan will do nothing, they have not been able to defend themselves since WW2 The sureender of the Japanese has created a mind set that they don't believe in War, they depend upon US upon the conditions of surrender, they may flex their muscles but China knows they can invade Japan any time. Japan is just a Paper Tiger, no teeth.

Rookiekan, As an american, the japanese hurt us deeply durring WWII, and we did the same, yet today our 2 countries enjoy a great relationship both in government and people. Back durring the american revolution, there was deep hatred between us and England, yet today they are one of our best allies in the world. As for Taiwan, is it really so horrible for china to allow them to exist on their own? Would it not be good for china to learn Taiwan's success and apply these lessons to governing china? Taiwan has enjoyed great success as an independant democratic nation, I would think China would see this and want to apply some of the ideas to it's own society and re create the same success with in it's own nation. Would china's pride truly be so hurt by letting go and admitting that they are human and like the rest of us, can always learn something.?

The battles between these two countries span hundreads of years. When China was ruled by the Mongrols, the Mongroles sent many warriors to Nipon (Japan) and other islands like Okinawa. Japan remembers this as a Chinees invasion though, In WWII the Japanes Army did many atrosities to both white and red China with their Manchurian allies most notably what has been called "The Rape of Nanking", they thought of this as pay back. The problem is today that unlike American Schools who teach that diferences can be over come. The Asian countries lke the middle eastern countries teach their children to hate, so new generations grow up hateing people who have never harmed them. If all were to teach peace, what kind of world would we live in thirty years from now? We would have Japanes and Chinees peoples injoying a soccor game with each other hosted by the US, and Arab boys and Jewish Boys hanging out at a pizza parler splitting the cost of a pizza.
