Just comparing this to the looted car dealerships in Egypt or looting of Iraq Museum or Katrina looting in New Orleans... we're may be not all the same underneath after all.
There was a time not too long ago where the Japanese considered them selves a superior race to the rest of the world (it was fashionable at the time to think so). They might have been the one who was right.

A society that survives so long (we are talking nearly an ancient civilization here) intact is bound to be more advanced in some way.

If they weren't so darn conservative and traditionalist they would have conquered the universe by now...
