So he is forever bitter and for at least ten years he has been waging a public verbal war against those he has an issue with. It seems to have consumed his whole life for all those years. So justice is important if people are going to be able to move on from a nasty experience.

Me: Hmmm. Sounds familiar, somehow. Q1: I wonder when I will be able to move on, and Q2: when the Iraqis may taste justice? A1: To the first, only possible after B, B & H stand before a Nuremberg[1] style trial. A2: To the 2nd, only possible after all the oil is pumped away into US tankers. Or, by a stroke of sheer good fortune, the rest of the world wakes up and takes effective action; see A1.
The failure of the Japanese Government to fully admit to what was inflicted on those women will be stain on that country. And it raises questions about the Japanese even today. If they cannot acknowledge the atrocities committed and genuinely apologise and make amends, then it tells me that it could all happen again.

Me: Ahhh... and so may the sins of the fathers be visited endlessly upon the sons, down to the x-th generation...
OK, possible exaggeration for effect. But: When will we in Orstray-lee-ah 'fully admit to what was inflicted on those' poor Iraqis?
Empathy can be very emotionally draining. If we identify with all those suffering people in the world, or around us, then we risk becoming an emotional wreck, or at least emotionaly burnt out. We cannot single handedly solve the world's problems so one should concentrate on what one can change.
[ibid.]
Me: Noble words. Have you tried looking in a mirror?
Oh, sorry! A rhetorical feint!
I didn't mean you, honest! I only wanted to say "Orstray-lee-ah, have you tried looking in a mirror?"
Quite obviously, if no-one says anything against these filthy criminals we'll never get the faintest whiff of justice.
And: every journey begins with a 1st step - I took mine when I first heard of the murderous "Shock and Awe" threat, which progressed to an illegal and murdering invasion, and is now a foul and brutal (I expect permanent) occupation, predicated on oil theft. And I have hardly paused my calling for justice since; hopefully, I won't have to die on the job.
Regards.

Epilogue:
I do not expect peace and tranquillity to break out until the sheople® wake up and realise that their TV-soma induced coma is an actual nightmare, and the propagandists of all stripes, be they the 'profis' in the corrupt and venal MSM, or the disgusting amateurs amongst us, all cease cheering the criminally murdering thieves on (or simply ingoring the crimes; which is worse?), the propagandists (and quislings) desist with their undermining of all that we (perhaps the true empathisers?) hold dear. Like, for example, truth, justice and the fair moral way.

[1] Crime against peace
A crime against peace, in international law, refers to the act of military invasion as a war crime, specifically referring to starting or waging war against the integrity, independence, or sovereignty of a territory or state, or else a military violation of relevant international treaties, agreements or legally binding assurances.
The definition of crimes against peace was first incorporated into the Nuremberg Principles and later included in the United Nations Charter. This definition would play a part in defining aggression as a war crime.
