The Japanese had no compunctions against committing the most barbarous acts against Chinese, Koreans, and other Asians, as recently as World War II. Some of the things they did were incomprehensibly horrible, on a par with the German concentration camps and medical experiments on prisoners. The History Channel had a series of shows about human atrocities, one was devoted to the Japanese in World War II, personal interviews with men who were young soldiers, describing what they did, shaking their heads in amazement at what they had done while acting in group-think. And I believe the Chinese have a similar record, look, for example, at Tibet. In Africa, it's also nation against nation, tribe against tribe, Hutu against Tutsi. I am not aware of any genocide committed against one's own except for Cambodia, and even then I believe the murdered people were considered "other."
