Come on YuriOtani, you are surely not suggesting that Japanese forces only killed enemy soldiers and never laid a finger on foreign civilians? Why not take a trip to Changi beach in Singapore and see the monument to Singaporean citizens killed by the Japanese (with text in Japanese to avoid…

It's incredible that someone who beats his own mother to death with a baseball bat is released after only four years. I'd like to know who authorised the release and on what grounds. Get the guy on TV and make him explain himself.

Child support payments are quite common around the world, so there's nothing particularly dumb about them. It will probably lead to a higher birth rate, which is something the LDP supposedly wants yet do nothing to achieve.
