I am republishing this.
A must-read not only for the Japanese people but also for people around the world.
This column has published many chapters concerning the United Nations and other matters, and from among them, I will compile and publish recent chapters, using approximately 10,000 characters as a guideline.
Trump is the greatest trickster of the postwar era, in the proper sense that the word ought to have.
The following single remark he made when he was President of the United States is more than sufficient proof.
“Why doesn’t Japan have nuclear weapons? (Why doesn’t Japan arm itself with nuclear weapons?) If one considers what lies behind that remark (even though Japan has countries in its immediate neighborhood that could not be more dangerous, and two of them have not only made anti-Japanese propaganda a national policy but also continue to expand their nuclear arsenals).”
At the outset, I described him as a trickster.
With this single remark, he turned the United Nations, the pseudo-moralists, and everything Asahi Shimbun-like into clowns in the truest sense of the word.
With that single remark, he revealed that they are, in fact, fools who are nothing more than clowns.
Passage omitted.
The same was true when the Kyodo News opinion poll conducted on January 30 and 31 asked about the government’s policy of relocating the U.S. military’s Futenma Air Station in Okinawa Prefecture to Henoko in Nago City.
On this question, too, contrary to the left-wing media’s opposition to the Henoko relocation, “support” (47.8%) exceeded “do not support” (43.0%), yet this point received little attention.
*Households that subscribe to the Asahi and similar newspapers and watch news programs on their subsidiary television stations must have been completely unaware of this fact as well.
Although Okinawa Governor Onaga had won a closely contested election, he employed the sophistry of “All Okinawa,” went so far as to appear at the United Nations, and repeatedly made statements that disgraced Japan; his conduct was so appalling that it would not be an exaggeration to say he had acted in accordance with the wishes of China and South Korea, which wanted to divide Japanese public opinion.
How, then, did TV Asahi’s “Hodo Station,” which had given him such prominence, report this?
On reflection, allowing people who call themselves the hosts of that program and the like to continue shaping Japanese public opinion brought about the growing arrogance and tyranny of China, a state under one-party Communist rule, and of South Korea, a Nazi state that had continued anti-Japanese education for seventy years since the end of the war.
They halted the advance of “The Turntable of Civilization” and created Japan’s prolonged deflation, which diminished Japan’s national strength by some 1,400 trillion yen.
What makes them pernicious is that, while their own annual incomes exceeding 100 million yen did not decrease in the slightest during this period, while the annual incomes of employees at their parent company, the Asahi Shimbun Company, did not decrease by even a single yen, and while their pensions did not decrease either, they created a reality in which one in six children grows up in a poor household with an annual income of 1.8 million yen or less.
What, then, are the Japanese government, politicians, mainstream media, and academics who raise no voice whatsoever in protest against the Chinese government over such outrageous education—that is, Nazism in the name of anti-Japanese education?
Are they citizens of Japan, or subjects of a Chinese vassal state?
What, then, is the United Nations, which has continued to leave this unchecked?
The person who left such outrageous Nazism unchecked and alerted China and South Korea—which has continued to practice not merely the same but even worse Nazism in the name of anti-Japanese education from the postwar period to the present—to visits to Yasukuni Shrine, a place of remembrance for the war dead, something entirely natural for the people of any country, thereby prompting them to criticize our country, was Yoichi Kato, a reporter for the Asahi Shimbun.
Kato proves the validity of the argument I have continued to make ever since I first appeared: “Everything begins with one person.”
The Asahi Shimbun, which continues Kato’s conduct as though it were company policy, can hardly be called a newspaper of Japan.
It is a newspaper of China and South Korea.
What kind of Japan-China friendship is this, while continuing to allow China to carry out such outrageous education—that is, Nazism in the name of anti-Japanese education!
What have the lawmakers who have belonged, and who currently belong, to the Japan-China Parliamentary Friendship Association been doing!
Could the reality be that they have been visiting China frequently and indulging in honey traps!
