JAPANESE WAR CRIMES: SURGICAL EXPERIMENTS CONDUCTED ON FILIPINOS

The disgraced ex Prime Minister Abe should be reading this. The man who kept on insisting that Japan was never a World War 2 bully, the man who brazenly tried to revise Japan's war history, should be made to listen to a recording of this man's confession, again and again. According to Akira Makino, they cut the throats of Filipino hostages and performed brutal medical experiments on a number of others. The entire article is featured below.

ABE'S ELECTORAL SETBACK

Japan's recent upper house elections showed that Prime Minister Abe's conservative camp miserably lost . However, his party holds overwhelming majority in the lower house so there is little chance that he can be forced to resign. In addition, Abe bowed to remain in order to push for the revision of Japan's constitution and a reform of the country's educational system. To the non Japanese, Abe is mostly known for the recent improvement of ties with Korea and China. However, he is also widely known for his denial of the existence of Asia's comfort women- Thousands of young girls and adults who where forced to provide sexual R & R to Japanese troops during World War 2.

COMFORT WOMEN: THE CONTINUING SAGA

I didn't want to write about this anymore but it seems that some people wouldn't stop until they have cleansed their countries history by erasing their past wrongdoings. " A group of Japanese lawmakers and conservatives on Friday protested US congressional demands for a clear apology over wartime sexual slavery, saying the women were not slaves but just making money. The group, which included 13 national lawmakers and more than 200 local politicians, intellectuals and journalists, gave the US embassy a protest letter saying they were "surprised and shocked" by the US pressure for a fresh apology to so-called "comfort women." They denied sexual slavery ever existed at front-line brothels during World War II, saying the women were generally paid." Please read the rest of the article here . In addition to my past opinions, I believe that the best way to stop this historical revisionists will be to flood them with overwhelming evidences. Before they p...

KAMIKAZE? NOT AGAIN!

Named after the typhoon that stopped Kublai Khan's invasion of Japan, the young warriors that were sent to slam their planes into American warships are being resurrected and hailed as heroes. A new movie written by Tokyo's Governor, the "Kamikaze" is once again being proclaimed as warriors worthy of emulation by today's Japanese youth. Of course, when noticed and criticized by the foreign media, the Japanese "Nationalists" quickly attempts to soften their message. Despite that, a different message seems to come out when the film's director was asked about the Kamikaze and the war itself. "While insisting to reporters that the movie's message is anti-war, director Taku Shinjo said Japan launched the war in Asia in self-defense, and that the decision to send young men on suicide missions was the only option left as the conflict neared its end. "When you get to the roots of the Japanese soul, I think they are embodied in the kamikaze pi...

DOHA round. GMA. Shinzo Abe. Comfort Women.

My warm regards to US educated Philippine President Gloria Arroyo for taking the cudgels of the developing states and hitting at the US for its discriminatory trade policies. She's always been known as a US ally, owing to her close association with Georgetown University classmate Bill Clinton. In the aftermath of 9/11, President Arroyo was also one of President Bush's strongest supporters. Let's enjoy her some portions of her yesterday's speech in Japan. Philippine Sta r : “When trade served their interests , it was the green light. Now that they might have to give up certain subsidies or markets, the yellow light of caution is up,” Mrs. Arroyo said of rich nations. Philippine Daily Inquirer: "The Doha Round was called the development round because it was supposed to bring the benefits of the global trading system to developing countries, she said at the opening of the 13 th Future of Asia conference here. Arroyo said the developed countries let the developing ...

Para que, Abe?

"Unless an acknowledgement of the war crimes become permanent, Japan shoul d never be allo wed to build its military, as a preventive measure. Its troops in Iraq should immediately be sent home, joint m ilitary exchanges/programs with other countries should be cancelled and their involvement with the UN in military programs should be permanently banned. Martial knowledge and enhancement through foreign experiences and technology t ransfers should be stopped. The unrepentant villains of World War II should not be given the chance to re-arm and strengthen. For once again, it might use it's sword, as a tool for military conquests and oppression. Abe, never again. No mas. N UNCA! " Newsweek's International Periscope discussed Japan's determined lobby to purchase F-22 Raptors, the most advanced and lethal fighter plane today. In addition, the same column mentioned that the country has previously acquired AWACS, a powerful surveillance/radar aircraft. Other than that ...
