The following is from an article by Mr. Ara Kenichi, an exertion that rebukes society, which appears in the current issue of the monthly magazine WiLL.
As mentioned in this column, I am very proud that Mr. Ara is a senior at my alma mater.
It is a must-read not only for Japanese citizens but also for people worldwide.　
Emphasis in the text other than the headline is mine.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs should erase the “Nanking Incident” from its homepage!
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which continues to tell lies without evidence, is fooling the people of Japan.

Strange Answer by Yoshimasa Hayashi　
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs website describes the Nanking Incident.　
“It is undeniable that there were killings and looting of non-combatants after entering Nanking.”
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been describing the incident since 2005, but there are no documents on which to base this description, according to the Ministry.

At an April 3 meeting of the House of Councilors’ Accounts Committee, Councilor Masamune Wada again asked the question, to which Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi responded.
How about Wada’s question?
“Are there any documents within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that serve as the basis for this statement?”　
Hayashi answered.
“We have not confirmed that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs prepared this document.”　
Foreign Minister Hayashi admitted that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had described the statement as undeniable without any basis.　
That is not all.
At this point, a further problem was exposed.　
In his answer, Foreign Minister Hayashi cited two documents.
The first was the “Government’s Answer decided on April 24, 2007,” and the second was the “Military History Series, Army Operations during the Second Sino-Japanese War (1),
The former is described on the website, and the latter has the corresponding description on the website.
However, the former was a government response two years after the description on the homepage, so there is no way it could have been included.
The latter is nowhere to be found.　
Not only does the Ministry of Foreign Affairs state this on its website without any evidence, but it also responded similarly to the Japan-China Joint History Study and the UNESCO Memory of the World Heritage registration and is still lying at this juncture.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs should immediately correct its homepage to show how much danger this attitude is putting Japan in.
