Anti-Korean sentiment in Japan

Anti-Korean demonstrations in Japan reminds me of Nazi Germany in the 1930s. Germany, however, has apologized for their ancestors’ war crimes, and are willingly educating their descendants about the historical facts so that they would not repeat their predecessors’ mistakes. However, the Japanese society is moving backwards. I would be more understanding if Koreans held Anti-Japanese demonstrations since they were victims of the 36 year long occupation by Japan. However, it is Japan that is holding anti-Korean demonstrations that makes me laugh. Japan has still not given a sincere apology to the war victims. It is outrageous that Japan still believes that they have done nothing wrong and that they are the victims.
