If it should become the case that this body of water would become officially designated as "The East Sea" I wonder how any other country than the two Koreas would regard it as of any significance. I doubt most of the uyoku in Japan would be prejudiced by such change…

??? I think I can tell which way you're leaning towards! So genocide is an acceptable form of politics in Japan? I'm just wondering if you'd feel the same if it was Korea, or China that came to "massacre rather than enslave the native population"... Think before you step, you…

This day IS korea's liberation/independence day. What else would you call the beginning of the end of 40years of occupation, subjugation and oppression? A day of sadness to see our dearly beloved brethren leave our shores after giving us 40 years of joy???

Yeah and I bet the non-white Commonwealth…

“face up to history and refrain from making the foolish mistake of repeating the unfortunate past again today.”

He's right, if Japan should colonise Korea again it should massacre rather than enslave the native population. This method worked well for securing Hokkaido, where you don't see Ainus protesting because they…

Disagree.....This principle force is Japanese self-interest not nationalism. This picture is nothing more than a far right wing nutbag and not even close to your average Japanese and their opinions, the photo is on the same plane as if the subject was a radical Japanese communist party member, we are…

Interesting how Germany can honor their dead without a backlash from Europe. Why cant Japan do the same?

The answer is there are very distinct differences between the way the Germans and Japanese handled themselves prior to, during and after the war.

Once you look into those differences, its easy…

Sheesh....What does Iraq and America invading HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THIS? Can people actually have a rational discussion on this board without bringing Iraq and Bush into the conversation????????

I'm just saying bro, would you support Japanese Nationalism (where Yasukuni is an inseparable institution) if you know that…

If you think a bunch of old men from the LDP visiting Yasukuni shrine is perniciously cynical, you might be right. Remember that these are the same lot who whimisically cast their vote in favour of supporting the invasion of Iraq. On the contrast you don't see their German counterparts…

I can only feel pity for the donors and patrons of this organisation, who must now be kicking themselves if they have decent minds.
