yukotojo: Can you select and play another track on your record? You've labored aka cut and pasted the same point three times now. Good for a laugh but not much else? Yawn...

True, there's no country free from war crimes, not a single one. The question isn't one of parity, rather excess. And excess is what the Japanese Imperial forces excelled at. Bayonet practice on decapitated heads, pregnant women singled out for bayoneting, the sheer savagery of their rabid excesses is what the word can't forget... Nor forgive until Japan comes clean which is unlikely of course. So we'll see everyone again when the next Yasukuni forum comes around.

seansezso: We're not that much apart on the issue and I suspect pathat isn't either. Here's some reference on Hirohito's decision to quit visiting Yasukini in as early as 1975

seansezso: How would the Emperor have felt? Don't you read? He'd gone on record through his secretary's revelations of his notebooks that he hated the fact that his wishes hadn't been adhered to, and that their remains be interned elsewhere. That revelation was made about two years ago.
So at the time he shuffled up to the microphone and squeaked out 'We must suffer the insufferable, bear the unbearable....' etc., Tojo was lamenting that the war couldn't go on. That's the degree of lunacy we're discussing here. One wonders how little Japan has changed as they still put trust in idiots from the LDP to run affairs, even if the course is straight ahead into financial ruin. In other worlds, the populace has always been 'lead' and never thought much about their lot by themselves.

yukotojo: Like your nomdeplume and the lunatic grand daughter living in Tokyo, Tojo himself was a complete nutter. I'm reminded of the Monty Python skit with the knight losing limb after limb and wanting to continue the fight. So it was with Tojo. Even after two nukes, the idiot wanted to drag the entire country into a sea of fire and for what? His outrageous stupidity and ego. I cannot verify your data just yet but it sounds a little whacky.
Tojo was never enshrined at Yasukuni but the workers at the crematorium gathered up a few remaining ashes and they are buried under a boulder in the grounds of Yasukuni, which is the same thing as any formal enshrinement of course. An in house secret amongst the staff and the frequent visitors at the cursed place.

"Let us just say that if you cannot understand my logic then there is every chance that you might in fact be in agreement with me, but not realise it." Nuff said...

imagawa: Sorry, your logic is hard to follow. "When the 'truth' just keeps hate(red) alive"? I thought it was the collective failure to look at truth that was at the heat of this matter? But seriously, your sentences are so overworked and convoluted I can't figure out what it is you're trying to say? Start again and with simple sentences, please. OssanULTRA; Ditto.

"Truth is not always that useful & when truth is twisted & used as propaganda as we have seen with the Chinese, why do you feel a need to add to that?"
Huh? Truth is not always that useful? Just run that one by me again.... Since when isn't it 'useful'?
I suppose the recent revelation that Tojo, now a memorial tablet in Tokyo, wanted to ignore the Postdam Declaration (in spite of two atomic bombings at Hiroshima and Nagasaki) is a part of the "twisted propaganda" you are referring to? Tojo's lunatic granddaughter in Tokyo running for election and to reclaim 'respect' for her grandfather also another part of the same 'twisted propaganda?'

The crux of the entire issue is the 14 (or however many it really is) memorial tablets enshrined later, as they were never intended to be. I see nothing wrong with any politician paying respects to the war dead, even for political mileage as they certainly wouldn't go without cameras around. No one has commented yet that in fact, the old boy Hirohito himself quit visiting the place on principal which speaks volumes.
Until the memorial tablets are removed this will be a serious problem for Japan for we can be sure the Chinese and others won't forget the rabid, sub-human species known as the Imperial J forces. They were really something these sub primates, bayoneting and lopping heads their way across Asia... And what's more they're still with us aka the dorks in the big trucks.

"But we are doing this for the people of Japan" He says. Yeah right... 'Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel.' Never truer words spoken, SJ

Call me a bad sport, call me whatever but there is just something about this kid that makes me want to puke. From the little yelps and squawks while pumping the air every time she wins a point, the ridiculous and affected 'beyond cute' way of talking, the multi-million dollar endorsements... Wait? It's the endorsements that get to me. I'm jealous! Anyway, I'm gonna squeal with delight and do cartwheels around the living room when she loses. Crash and burn Ai chan, crash and burn!

Most tuna goes into cat food. The cat excrement then finds its way into either land fill or the oceans mixed with all the bugs in kitty-litter where it gets back into the food chain. Think this worrying? I sure as hell do. Pretty soon if not right now, the only fish doing well in the oceans are jellyfish and we're all gonna have to get a taste for them as that's what we'll be eating before long. Try Googling 'The Rise of Slime' .Then again maybe not as it's too unsettling...

Gee, the past come to life for a moment? I had a real doll of a girlfriend many, many years ago. 38 and a real bombshell. Divorced, two kids almost grown up and she had marriage in mind and much worse; a key to the apartment... There was just this "something" I couldn't put my finger on and despite the presents, beer stocked refrigerator and good times I pulled the plug and elected separation.
That's when the serious stuff started. I came home once and found every shirt, tie and pants razor shredded. Hey, I looked like a Fijian traffic cop! Kinda funny if it hadn't been so expensive. Another time the phone was off the hook after a weekend away and when I picked it up I heard: " The current time in NY is and the forecast for today is..." The bill was horrendous and then after finally wizening up, changing the lock, the 1:00 am silent phone calls for years.
So yeah, the psychos are still out there still it seems.

So somebody else thinks like me about this brat... she's made millions, dollar millions from endorsements, Miki House for one and there's just something insufferable about the false modesty that reeks from brat that annoys from the start. I also hope she gets wiped out in Beijing.
