This essay examines how UN bodies, particularly the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women and UNESCO, have been influenced by communist regimes and ideological operatives, while Japan continues to fund them on an unprecedented scale. It argues that correcting this reality is a fundamental duty of Japanese politicians.

At a time when the United States has suspended its financial contributions, Japanese politicians—whose country continues to pay the world’s largest and extraordinarily massive operating funds—must understand their responsibility.

The following is a paper that I disseminated to the world on 2016/11/29.

“Even Somerset Maugham was a member of British intelligence, so the fact that Herbert Norman may have been manipulated by communist forces and acted as a spy is hardly surprising…”

When Japan’s current situation is considered from this perspective, anyone with true insight should feel a chill run down their spine.

Last night, as I read news distributed on the internet, I was made to vividly recognize this reality once again.

Wondering what kind of country South Korea really is, I searched the internet—the largest library in human history—and, as already noted, was able to confirm the true nature of that country in just one hour.

In the course of this process, I learned of an astonishing individual: Etsuro Totsuka, a man who graduated from Rikkyo University, became a lawyer, and served as a Special Overseas Research Committee member of the Japan Federation of Bar Associations from 1993 to 1997 (according to Wikipedia), who repeatedly visited UNESCO in connection with Asahi Shimbun’s comfort women reporting and helped entrench in international society the notion that they were “sexual slaves,” not comfort women.

However, the opening news made clear that this was not his deed alone.

Considering that even S. Maugham was an intelligence agent, it would be elementary work for the intelligence agencies of South Korea or China to conduct operations on individuals who studied Marxism, graduated from university, and became lawyers.

Below is that news. Asahi Shimbun subscribers would have had no idea that the chairperson of the UN Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women was a Japanese woman named Yoko Hayashi (affiliated with the Japan Federation of Bar Associations).

Even so, how could the Ministry of Foreign Affairs be so incompetent as to recommend such a person as chair? Sakurai Yoshiko—without exaggeration one of the most outstanding women in postwar Japan and truly a woman of the 21st century—has often criticized the Ministry of Foreign Affairs harshly, and here again I was reminded that her criticisms are entirely correct.

In March of this year, the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women released its final observations criticizing last year’s Japan–South Korea agreement on the comfort women issue.

Claiming this to be an unjust view that ignored the Japanese government’s explanation, the “National Movement for the Truth about Comfort Women” (headed by Hideaki Kase) submitted by the 28th a petition with 11,532 signatures demanding the immediate dismissal of Chairperson Yoko Hayashi (Japan Federation of Bar Associations) to Foreign Minister Fumio Kishida.

“The Japanese government bears responsibility for recommending Ms. Hayashi as a committee member. Public anger is immense. We demand her immediate dismissal.”

This was stated by Nobukatsu Fujioka, Visiting Professor at Takushoku University and secretary of the national movement.

The petition was handed to Kyoko Kitago, Director of the Gender Equality Promotion Office at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in the presence of House of Councillors member Satsuki Katayama, Acting Deputy Chair of the LDP Policy Research Council and Acting Chair of the International Information Review Committee.

In February, the Japanese government dispatched Shinsuke Sugiyama, then a senior MOFA official (now Administrative Vice Minister), to the committee’s review of Japan, where he explained in detail that “government-discovered materials did not confirm forced recruitment by the military or authorities” and that “sexual slavery is contrary to fact,” including reference to Asahi Shimbun’s major false reporting.

Yet these explanations were not reflected in the final observations.

The petition stated that “the committee completely ignored the Japanese government representative’s detailed explanation of the facts” and that “it also engaged in domestic interference by demanding that comfort women issues be included in Japanese textbooks.”

Furthermore, the committee even included in its draft final observations a recommendation calling for revision of the Imperial Household Law, claiming that limiting imperial succession to male-line males constitutes discrimination against women, and it harshly criticized Ms. Hayashi as follows.

“It shows no respect for Japan’s national polity, traditions, or culture, and gratuitously demeans the Imperial Household.”
“This is an outrageous act that exceeds the mandate of a UN committee and is absolutely unacceptable.”

“We strongly demand the immediate recall of Ms. Hayashi by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that recommended her to the United Nations.”
“We demand that the Diet summon Ms. Hayashi to clarify the facts and responsibility.”

This represents intense anger toward a committee that disregards Japan’s national character, history, traditions, and culture.

Ms. Katayama stated, “Although committee members are not subject to Diet approval, this is an extremely important post. Blindly believing that the United Nations is a perfectly transparent and objective organization is itself a mistake. Even if dismissal is difficult, we must ensure that similar individuals are not selected in the future.”

Ms. Katayama must not content herself with such commentary-like remarks.

It is already common knowledge that today’s United Nations—particularly UNESCO—has become an organization completely manipulated by communist states.

In response to this situation, now that the United States has halted its funding,

Japanese politicians—whose country continues to pay the world’s largest and extraordinarily massive operating funds—

must engrave in their minds that correcting the present state of the United Nations is their responsibility.

Because everything done at the United Nations directly affects our national interest.
