Why is the world willing to move on after Nazi but not Japanese occupation?

The reason is simple. The Germans apologized with utmost sincerity for the atrocities committed by the Nazis. When you visit any museum that displays Nazi's history and crimes, you can see a true account of the past. The Germans do not whitewash their acrimonious past.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2015/08/13/germany-won-respect-by-addressing-its-world-war-ii-crimes-japan-not-so-much/

For Japan, the Japanese tried to whitewash their unglamorous past starting with their school textbooks and also protested against the Unesco Nanjing Massacre listing. Why? This makes it hard for Japan to deny the Nanjing Massacre when it is listed under the Unesco.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/oct/13/japan-threatens-to-halt-unesco-funding-over-nanjing-listing

Not only does Japan government whitewash its history, it also worships the war criminals in the yasukuni shrine. This is akin to extolling their ruthless actions during WW2 especially when the government officials visit the shrine on an annual basis.

The world will never forgive Japan and move on because of insincere apology. The world cannot reconcile Japan's insincere verbal apology with regular yasukuni shrine visits and history whitewashes.

TPP won't be approved this year and the new incumbent president also won't approve it either.  Both presidential candidates stated very clearly in their propagandas that they won't approve TPP because TPP was detrimental to USA economy.

Any changes to TPP will have to be re-negotiated with Asia countries and this is very time-consuming.  Therefore, TPP has virtually no success rate in the future.

Political powers are shifting around the globe now!

USA tries to interfere in South China Sea that angers China.  Therefore, China is interfering in Middle East to get back at the USA.  China will be supporting Syria in the Middle East with military training and aids.  This is an excellent strategic move because Syria is an oil producing nation and China can import oil from Syria in RMB, not in USD.

With Russia and China support, Syria is pounding US-backed Kurdish troops by bombing them.

https://sg.finance.yahoo.com/news/syria-regime-pounds-kurdish-positions-second-day-170632363.html

We can see that Russia and China have formed a strategic alliance against the USA in South China Sea and Middle East.

For the first time in history, Iran has allowed Russia to use its airbase to bomb IS in Syria.  This is a political changing event which angers the USA.  Iran is overtly expressing its support for Russia involvement which will greatly reduce USA influence.

http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/iran-official-permanent-russia-base-syria-strikes-41447307

Russia is also pressuring Turkey for access to its airbase to bomb IS in Syria and the primary motive is to create ramification in NATO since Turkey is one of NATO members.  With burgeoning supports from Iran, Syria, Turkey and China, Russia will become a major decision maker in Middle East.

Economic crisis is developing in South Korea.

An economic crisis is developing in South Korea because of the establishment of THAAD system.

China has started to whip South Korea for being a bad neighbour because it is threatening China's national security with THAAD.

China starts with anti-dumping tariff for steel imports from South Korean and has moved on to ban Korean TV contents and talents.  South Korea's economy is heavily dependent on 10 conglomerates such as Samsung, LG, Hyundai, etc.  Therefore, China will start to attack these 10 conglomerates so that South Korea will back down on THAAD. 

http://variety.com/2016/biz/asia/china-confirms-ban-on-korean-content-talent-1201830391/

http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2016/07/24/business/beijing-slaps-duties-on-japan-eu-south-korea-over-steel-imports/

China has started to aim its missiles at THAAD site in South Korea for self-preservation purpose.  Is THAAD really a safety measure for South Korea or THAAD a danger?

THAAD is used for protection against high altitude missiles but North Korea has mostly low altitude missiles and low flying rockets.  THAAD cannot be used for those low flying missiles and rockets such as scuds.  Therefore, only patriot missiles can protect South Korean against low flying missiles, rockets and artillaries.

http://38north.org/2016/03/jlewis030716/

It is estimated that North Korea has more than 10,000 mobile rocket launchers and these will be used to attack South Korea during the war.  Therefore, South Korea's main threat is these 10,000 mobile rocket launchers which the THAAD system cannot detect and destroy.  Many analysts know this and know that the true purpose of THAAD is to suppress China & Russia's ICBMs.

UN has publicly declared that PCA is not related to UN.

http://news.xinhuanet.com/english/2016-07/15/c_135515304.htm

USA can make a mockery of PCA because PCA is not part of UN.  USA dares not manipulate ICJ because UN won't allow anyone to undermine its credibility and reputation.  For example, USA sought UN's approval for Iraq invasion but UN disapproved it and US & UK invaded Iraq without UN's mandate.  This incident showed that UN would still protect its own credibility and reputation when any motion was illegal and inappropriate.

The truth about South China Sea ruling

Philippines has deceived the whole world intentionally and USA is the mastermind behind this farce.

Philippines filed the case under the instruction of USA in Permanent Court of Arbitration (PCA) and not in International Court of Justice (ICJ) because it could manipulate the outcome easily with USA as PCA is not a court and is not a UN agency.  Therefore, the outcome of PCA is not legal binding.

This is the reason why Singapore and Malaysia went to ICJ instead of PCA for Pedra Branca judgement because PCA is not a court and can be easily manipulated.

China is building a port in malacca so that its ships will bypass Singapore.

http://en.people.cn/n3/2016/0705/c90000-9081726.html

China is building a port in malacca so that its ships will bypass Singapore.  As 70-80% of ships passing through straits of malacca come from China, this will badly affect Singapore port and our port volumes will decline significantly.  This is the price we have to pay for being too close with USA and giving USA the right to berth its naval ships and P8A spy plane in SG.

China also has a port and oil pipeline in Myanmar so that its imported crude oil can bypass straits of malacca which can be under the control of USA through SG during war time.

This one belt one road economic plan which consists of railway will help china to bypass SG port because it can download all goods in malacca and transport them to China by railway.

No wonder we have lost our world busiest port status and we will lose more in the future when malacca port is up and running.

The 2.6m words in the chilcot report conducted by UK revealed that the Iraq war was started with flawed intelligence (fabricated by US).  The iraq invasion notion was rejected by UN but US still defied and went to attack Iraq with UK without UN approval.

The quality and quantity of this chilcot report were so much better than US's own report that its veracity couldn't be refuted and this led Tony Blair to apologise to the world.  However, USA still refused to provide any apology and insisted that it's right to attack Iraq.

USA is trying to create trouble in South China Sea now and it will fabricate intelligence again to achieve its own heinous and sinisterness goal.
