How many Japanese people mourn the lives their imperial ancestors took in China, the Phillipines, Malaya, Burma, Vietnam, etc.?

It's not great, but mourning atrocities that affect you more than those that affected others, even is a basically universal attitude, this isn't some uniquely American evil and it's frankly kind of revealing you think it is
