There is a difference. Germans themselves (at least most of them) are aware that ww2 was a terrible thing and German guilt is recognized. Go to Berlin and look at the HUGE memorial in plain town centre to the memory of the dead of the Holocaust. A picture for you (On the top left corner you see the Reichstag-building):



Another perspective:


Where are your memorials on the dark spots in British history?

Remember: one can only be forgiven when one recognizes one's guilt.
