Beginning with the deliciousness of Fukushima peaches, this essay criticizes South Korea’s import restrictions on Japanese agricultural and marine products, reputational damage against Fukushima, anti-nuclear reporting by The Asahi Shimbun and NHK, remarks by Toru Hashimoto, the hate-speech issue, incidents involving Zaitokukai, Yoshifu Arita, the Kan Naoto administration, and Masayoshi Son’s nuclear-energy propaganda.
It argues for the safety of Japanese produce and seafood while sharply criticizing the South Korean government, Japanese media, and political figures.

This is what I thought while eating truly delicious, large peaches from Fukushima.
That the Korean people are the lowest in the world: base, malicious, and ignorant.
Since Mitsubishi Corporation became a major shareholder of the large supermarket I regularly visit, the quality level of the food products has risen remarkably.
The peach season begins with peaches from Wakayama.
Now the Wakayama peaches have ended, and peaches from Fukushima are lined up.
Both are so delicious that it is hard to say which is superior.
Come to think of it, when I was a child growing up in Yuriage, in peach season I ate peaches from Fukushima and Yamagata.
This is what I thought while eating truly delicious, large peaches from Fukushima.
That the Korean people are the lowest in the world: base, malicious, and ignorant.
A hydrogen explosion created by a once-in-a-thousand-years great earthquake and tsunami, GE’s defective design, and the mistaken on-site intervention of Kan Naoto, who was then the worst defective prime minister in history—one often sees comments on the internet suggesting that Kan Naoto may be a Korean resident in Japan, and that too is probably no mere coincidence.
The Asahi Shimbun and NHK seized it as an opportunity to attack Japan, which had been at the top of the world in nuclear technology,
and as an opportunity to cause Japan’s nuclear technology and industry to decline and reduce Japan’s national strength, and began ferocious anti-nuclear reporting.
That this continues even now, and that it has caused Japan’s electricity prices to soar and astronomically increased the cost of purchasing fossil fuels, is an unmistakable fact.
It is also an unmistakable fact that The Asahi Shimbun and NHK are organizations controlled by agents of China and the Korean Peninsula.
As readers know, the book published by Lee Young-hoon, professor emeritus of economics at Seoul National University, who displayed an intelligence rare among Koreans, also proved the simple fact I have mentioned many times.
There can be no true scholarship in countries such as China and South Korea.
Korean universities are factories for manufacturing lies.
That is why they are the most ignorant people in the world.
Fukushima is not contaminated with radiation.
The Korean people, the lowest in the world: base, malicious, and ignorant, do not even know that Fukushima’s radiation level is lower than the natural radiation levels in many places around the world, including China and Europe.
If they were merely foolish, that would still be one thing.
But they, unbelievably, are exploiting Japan, which suffered one of the greatest disasters in human history, and saying that they will continue import bans because Japan’s agricultural products and seafood are contaminated with radiation.
In response to the lies and nonsense they have persistently spread, Japan, truly belatedly, and entirely naturally, removed from South Korea the same preferential treatment it had given to Western countries.
This was a natural measure against South Korea, which had continued smuggling important materials to North Korea and others through ship-to-ship transfers and other means, deceiving the eyes of the international community and violating United Nations sanctions.
Toru Hashimoto made an outrageous remark on BS-TBS the other day, as if Osaka were a prefecture and city sustained by the travel spending of Koreans.
It goes without saying that this remark was below toilet paper.
That is because Japan is absolutely not a country that exists on the basis of whether Koreans come to travel there or not.
Now that things have come to this, the Japanese people should decide not to provide Japanese food to Koreans.
For Koreans who nevertheless visit, only ingredients from their own country and only dishes from their own country should be provided.
Japanese cuisine must absolutely not be provided.
No restaurant that uses Japanese agricultural products or seafood should provide meals to them.
“The Japanese food products used in our restaurant have been announced by the South Korean government as producing radiation for Koreans, so we ask Korean customers to refrain from entering.”
All restaurants should post this at their entrances, warn Koreans, and refuse them entry.
The attacks by that Zaitoku-something group against Korean schools, which were staged by them themselves, or the street demonstrations and counter-demonstrations against them, began in places unknown to the majority of ordinary citizens.
For some reason, Yoshifu Arita immediately appeared at the scene and filmed what was happening.
He then rushed to the United Nations with that video and spread the propaganda that Japan is a country of hate speech.
To begin with, Hashimoto was the first to jump onto this propaganda, issued a hate-speech ordinance in Osaka Prefecture, and played a major role in helping enact the national hate-speech law.
It was also Toru Hashimoto who was the first to rush to join the movement supporting Kan Naoto and demanding the immediate shutdown of nuclear power plants, which began with Masayoshi Son’s propaganda under the Kan Naoto administration that “Japanese nuclear power plants are no good, but Korean nuclear power plants are good.”
I will write about him on another day, but there is no doubt that, for the Korean Peninsula and China, he is an extremely convenient and ideal person.
Although he is clearly lacking in true intelligence and culture, he possesses a lawyer’s qualification and, moreover, is a popular figure who frequently appears on television and elsewhere.
For the intelligence agencies of totalitarian states, where propaganda is everything, manipulating him without his noticing would probably be easier than twisting a baby’s arm.
Someone whispers so that their propaganda seeps into every corner of his words.
He did not read the books he ought to have read, spent his time at Kitano High School absorbed in rugby, and at Waseda was overwhelmed with studying to pass the bar examination.
That is probably why he behaves as he does.
Because he serves as a television geisha, that defect is further accelerated.
For television stations such as Asahi and TBS, which want by any means to attack the Abe administration, it is more than enough if they can draw out, from fragments of his words, criticism of the government’s response to South Korea, or effective criticism for the purpose of continuing to keep Okinawa in their hands.
Enduring his arrogant behavior for the sake of those fragments is probably their specialty, but for me, who happened to be watching, nothing but discomfort remained.
I believe I have also written part of where that discomfort originates.
