Military leadership was convicted. Outside of the Tokyo Trials, 5,600 Japanese personnel were prosecuted, including in the Philippines!
You can't guess history, Cynth. You actually have to do the research.

If you're so well read on this stuff you'll then know that the Japanese were very careful in making sure that they didn't create any war criminals. They were very carful of that since the San Francisco Treaty was the actual court remedy.
Of that court justice you tout, it restored nothing to our family businesses, loss of family member, and little justice served to my great grand father or the widowed wife.
yes, will, justice was served according to your beliefs. Make 'em pay with the wallet even though they killed your family and took your family livelihood away from you. Yes, courtrooms and money solves everything.
