Of course the Japanese commited horrible acts in Nanjing and in general many cities they occupied...but as has been said, they are not the only ones to have done such things.
On the other hand, from what i've read online, it's not that the Japanese don't mention these atrocities in their textbooks at all, just that they tend to downplay them somewhat or not specify all the details...A bit of revisionism perhaps but not total amnesia, from what I can tell.
For example, see this site.
