He wants to apologize to the US, but he won't take back what he said about comfort women. Just goes to show how scummy he is. Sorry buddy, but the rest of the world is more mad at you for making comments about comfort women being necessary than saying anything about the US soldiers.

Idiotic comments above... The REAL reason for the violence is that these guys are frustrated due to a sense of injustice, racism, being excluded, poverty, etc, not immigration. Violence doesn't just happen for no reason.

As horrible were the bombings were, the bombings were a last resort, otherwise more Japanese who were forced to fight the allies with bamboo sticks would have been brutally killed. The situation in Okinawa was so bad that Truman was forced to drop the two a-bombs as a last resort in order to convince the Japan to surrender.

The Japanese criminal "justice" system needs a complete overhaul... The citizens must stand up against this highly corrupt and institutionalized mess. The prosecutors and the judges team up to arbitrarily decide the prosecuted "guilty", because apparently the prosecutors getting it wrong is "shameful" and is a "loss of face". Even after losing, the prosecutors will do what ever they can to "right the wrong and restore the dignity" of the infallible prosecutors.
It is not exactly known how many are actually sent to the death row and executed since the system does not even reveal all of them. Who knows if one of them will be arrested, tortured, forced to confess and sent to the death row just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time? It has happened to many people.

nigelboy, CH3CHO, Upgrayedd, denying, defending and excusing this terrible, horrible war crime, as Hashimoto is doing, is clearly misguided and indefensible. It has nothing to do with patriotism or love for your country or having loyalty to your country. Nobody else in the rest of the world would excuse, defend or deny the existence of comfort women, ever. It was clearly an unjustifiable war crime.

Only in Japan will you find people actually denying, defending and excusing the existence of "comfort women", as if they were neo-Nazis denying, defending and excusing the Holocaust, Auschwitz, etc. Unbelievable.

It's a shame that the right-wingers and nationalists even on this site knowingly or unknowingly defend war crimes out of supposed "loyalty" for their country. Or is it just about covering up their national embarrassment, like Hashimoto? These people have no concept of justice...

Well after Hashimoto's remarks and apologists like you... we're not so sure...
lol... I don't know why some of the Japanese people (i.e. right-wingers) tend to take this at a face value... Oh, and just because Japan is respected, doesn't necessarily mean that YOU are respected.

Upgrayedd, what's written on piece of paper and what actually occurred are two different things. I guess in your mind, something written on a piece of paper makes it true.
