It's interesting that we go to great lengths to punish ex-nazis, but do nothing when comes to the soldiers of Stalin and Mao.

Even the ex-Japanese soldiers that participated in horrific war crimes got to live a peceful life afte the war.

Germany chased the nazi war criminals out.

Did Russia, Japan or China chase out their war criminals to the same extent? I doubt it.

Haven’t seen it yet but The Emperor's Naked Army Marches On is an ‘87 doc about a Japanese WWII vet tracking down Japanese war criminals, confronting them and then beating the shit out of them. Here’s Bill Hader talking about it:
