    Congratulations to the DPJ members on their victory! Thumbs-up also to the LDP members for putting up a courageous fight in the face of tremendous opposition -- these are true Japanese samurais!

    I'm all in favor of what Alphaape said -- PM Taro Aso has the right to visit the Yasukuni shrine if he wants to.

    However, I'm curious about one thing -- isn't PM Aso a Roman Catholic? Why does he have to visit a Shintoist shrine?

    He died at the age of 50 years, when his hit album, "Thriller" (the best-selling album of all time), has sold an estimated 50 million copies, and as he was rehearsing hard for a comeback with an unprecedented 50 concerts scheduled. Strange how "50" keeps recurring.....

    Interrogations of all suspects should be recorded in their entiety. This is to protect both the police and accused so that the accused cannot later retract the confession and claim he/she was forced into admitting that he/she committed the crime.

    goodDonkey,

    Well said! History and belief systems aren't one and the same thing -- they're two separate issues. Nobody has the right to force his or her will on another person's belief system -- that's almost the same as slavery.
