    Inflation is like taking a heroin. A drug that makes you high and comfort only for a while. You will eventually die overdose from it.

    As opposed to deflation?

    By the way, who are those people whose photos are stuck on the flag? Can't recognise some of them. Any ideas anyone?

    I can't see the other pictures clearly but I'm pretty sure the woman is Tomomi Inada, Minister for Administrative Reform.

    you're asking me to look for something the Japanese government burned records of and completely denies?

    There's no evidence so the Japanese must have burned it excuse? There's plenty of evidence of other Japanese war crimes but nothing on comfort women. Very strange.

    And yet former Imperial soldiers have admitted to kidnapping and raping women "despite their cries". This proof as opposed to your non-proof about something not happenening.

    Yasuji Kaneko lied about when he joined the Japanese army, about murdering Chinese people in the Nanjing massacre, and about being in Unit 731 yet you believe his testimony about comfort women?

    Upgrayedd. Japan has been running deficits since the mid-nineties or earlier. The deficit in 2009 was 32 trillion Yen. Seems to me the nuclear reactors were humming along just fine then.

    You must be mistaken. The balance of trade in 2009 was +2.6 trillion yen.

    Perhaps you are confusing trade deficits with budget deficits?

    Or you can have a 100 more years of this....

    100 more years of Japan being the world's most respected and well regarded nation?

    I can't remember where I read it but something like 65% of global smart phone components are supplied by Japanese companies. For example, the iPhone is more than 50% Japanese.

    @Chin4Sailor Perhaps you should have made it clear what you meant when you said no one protests Germany.

    Upgrayedd. So why did Japan have a deficit while the nuclear plants were running? Was that just a 20 year anomaly?

    Japan didn't run trade deficits while the nuclear plants were running. There might have been a few but it was mostly surpluses. The recent spat of trade deficits started 3/2011.

    I guess Japan will never fully become a productive member of the international community, because they keep changing and obfuscating their Dirty Past....

    Japan is the most positively viewed nation on Earth.

    The deficit would disappear tomorrow if the government turned on the nuclear plants.

    In summary, the only physical evidence about comfort women in existence is Japanese government orders to not recruit anyone against their will and to arrest those that do. Meanwhile, there is testimony that Japanese soldiers frequently violated orders.

    Agreed?

    More testimony? Testimony of actions in violation of Japanese military orders?

    The Japanese document that Mr. Yoshimi discovered in the 1990s makes it clear that the Japanese military had orders to not kidnap women.

    From the original - 受領番号 陸軍省受領 陸支密受第二一九七号 起元庁(課名) 兵務課 件名 軍慰安所従業婦等募集ニ関スル件 兵甲第一八号 昭和十三年三月四日 陸支密 副官ヨリ北支方面軍及中支派遣軍参謀長宛通牒案 支那事変地ニ於ケル慰安所設置ノ為内地ニ於テ之カ従業婦等ヲ募集スルニ当リ故ラニ軍部諒解等ノ名儀ヲ利用シ為ニ軍ノ威信ヲ傷ツケ且ツ一般民ノ誤解ヲ招ク虞アルモノ或ハ従軍記者、慰問者等ヲ介シテ不統制ニ募集シ社会問題ヲ惹起スル虞アルモノ或ハ募集ニ任スル者ノ人選適切ヲ欠キ為ニ募集ノ方法誘拐ニ類シ警察当局ニ検挙取調ヲ受クルモノアル等注意ヲ要スルモノ少カラサルニ就テハ将来是等ノ募集等ニ当リテハ派遣軍ニ於テ統制シ之ニ任スル人物ノ選定ヲ周到適切ニシ其実施ニ

    Why would the Japanese military order Army units in China to not deal with brokers who kidnapped women and to arrest those that did? Could it be possible that sexual slavery was not sanctioned Japanese policy in WWII?

    Mr. Yoshimi went to the Defense Agency’s library and combed through official documents from the 1930s. In just two days, he found a rare trove that uncovered the military's direct role in managing the brothels, including documents that carried the personal seals of high-ranking Imperial Army officers.

    Mr. Yoshimi discovered China Area Army Document No. 745

    The document is an order for the Japanese military to only hire/recruit volunteer women to be comfort women. Have you ever read it?

    You just posted testimony again.

    There is a difference between testimony and physical evidence.

    Another reason to turn back on the nuclear reactors.

    Thomas, post the rest of the paragraph that says they were charged with violating Japanese orders to hire only volunteer women.

    No one is denying that massive amounts of war crimes were committed. We are arguing if it was state policy to kidnap women into sexual slavery or not. The evidence supports that it wasn't policy but it frequently happened against orders unsanctioned by govt leadership in Tokyo.
