...weren't nearly as hard core or indoctrinated as the ones running Germany. They mostly lived in remote countries. They actually believed that the Japanese were acting in an uncivilized manner and that any decent country wouldn't/couldn't act that way. They were 'good will' guys sent out to make friends with other countries and to put on a good face. They were as surprised as anybody at the extent of the horror the NAZIs perpetrated on Europe.
