America was the enemy, but now for most Japanese people America is not an enemy or governor who dominates Japan any more. All of the interviews answered that war is destructive, and we should never do it again. The veterans had a really hard time during war. They had to separate from their family's, they lost their loved one's, houses, and belongings. They described it as hell, and now their life is almost like a heaven.
War makes everything crazy.
The personal experiences expressed in these interviews touch hearts directly. Now in Japan we can eat enough food, live in houses, and wear nice clothes. We can say and do anything we want. Most Japanese forget how lucky and happy they are. We have to remember and appreciate our non-war world.
