Their “feelings” are stirred up because they hate their own country.

Ironically most of the people “upset” about this are OK with us selling our country to China.

Edit: For those that don’t know, the Chinese were an important part of the raids. The Chinese people were instrumental in hiding our pilots and keeping them safe from the Japanese. The Chinese helped because the Japanese were brutal toward them - even more so than they were toward US fighters.

I would bet actual money that if you surveyed the people who are complaining none of them could describe the mission. I further posit that they are confusing this with the fire bombing raids which were actually pretty damn hard core in retrospect.

I think one of the issues that people are MAINLY upset about are the fact that this caused the Japanese to kill 250,000 Chinese that helped Americans. That in itself does raise eyebrows, although it's not like the Japanese said "hey if you do something we're gonna kill all these people."

They bombed Pearl Harbor and declared war on the US, not the other way around.

they didn't need much incentive, I suppose the rape of Nanking was in preemptive retaliation to us just in case we were going to enter the war?

Caused? I don't think this means what you think it means.

They've been programmed to believe everything prior to their lifetime has been white people running amok.

It kind of proves how ignorant they are, pretty much every society on earth has been created through war and competition.
