What Is IMADR? The Reality of an Anti-Japanese Human Rights Organization That Uses the United Nations to Denigrate Japan

Published on January 30, 2020. This is a revised republication of a chapter originally posted on August 27, 2018. It introduces IMADR, the International Movement Against All Forms of Discrimination and Racism, and its officers, criticizing the organization’s little-known activities in connection with anti-Japanese propaganda from China and the Korean Peninsula, U.N. human rights mechanisms, Japan’s lack of counterintelligence institutions, and the reporting stance of the Asahi Shimbun and NHK.

On January 29, 2020, a Harvard University professor, while receiving large amounts of research funding from the U.S. Department of Defense, was arrested for allegedly receiving $50,000 per month from China and $1.5 million as expenses for establishing a research institute.
If this were China, it goes without saying that all of them would immediately be arrested and detained for treason and subjected to severe punishment, including the death penalty.
I am republishing, after correcting typographical errors and the like, the chapter originally posted on August 27, 2018, under that title.
What kind of person is this man named Komatsu Taisuke, whom 99.99 percent of the Japanese people did not know about, and what kind of organization is IMDR, the organization to which he belongs?
They were not satisfied merely with continuing to reap, so to speak, excessive profits from the Japanese national government and local governments as a pressure group colluding with organized crime groups.
Perhaps because their true nature was exposed domestically in Japan through an incident in Osaka quite some time ago, they then went to the United Nations and devoted themselves to activities aimed at denigrating Japan.
Like me, 99.99 percent of the Japanese people knew absolutely nothing about this.
It goes without saying that this organization is an ideal organization for anti-Japanese propaganda from China and the Korean Peninsula.
If Japan had, like other advanced countries, a strong counterintelligence agency, or an organization related to national security such as the FBI or the CIA,
it would surely be thoroughly investigating whether sources connected to China or the Korean Peninsula are included among the funding sources for this organization.
If this were China, it goes without saying that all of them would immediately be arrested and detained for treason and subjected to severe punishment, including the death penalty.
On January 29, 2020, a Harvard University professor was arrested for allegedly receiving $50,000 per month from China and $1.5 million as expenses for establishing a research institute, while receiving large amounts of research funding from the U.S. Department of Defense.
Although it claims to be a human rights organization, this is an organization that has not raised a single voice of protest against the simultaneous arrests of hundreds of human rights lawyers in China,
nor against the extreme suppression and persecution of human rights and religion inflicted upon the Uyghurs and Tibet.
No one has ever come across any report saying that this organization raised a voice of protest at the United Nations against the outrageousness of South Korea’s courts or against North Korea’s tyranny, which is now known throughout the world.
Yet this organization has continued to say truly outrageous things at the United Nations in order to denigrate Japan, such as that Japan discriminates against the Ainu or discriminates against Okinawa.
In the end, it had a woman named Sasaki Kumi, whose background is unknown, publish in Paris a truly ridiculous and utterly false publication claiming that Japan is a country full of gropers and a major violator of women’s human rights.
She plainly appears to have undergone cosmetic surgery and plainly appears to be Korean or a Zainichi Korean.
This organization is probably the hidden force that had foolish, low-intelligence, racist French people criticize Japan.
There is also no doubt that this organization is connected to Shin Sugok, an intractable Zainichi Korean woman who went into exile in Germany as soon as the Anti-Espionage Law was enacted.
How terrible the media such as the Asahi Shimbun and NHK are, having given importance to such people.
Did the Süddeutsche Zeitung quote Asahi articles while knowing such realities?
This newspaper company, too, is truly the lowest and most base kind of newspaper company.
