This article introduces the latest WiLL magazine essay by Professor Riki Nishioka, revealing that the impeachment of President Park Geun-hye was in fact a “people’s tribunal” led by radical pro-North Korean forces seeking the withdrawal of U.S. troops, abolition of the National Security Law, and federal unification. It exposes the core of a silent war directly affecting Japan’s security, the media’s misinformation, and the struggle of conservative forces to defend South Korea’s democratic system.

① the true identity of the force leading the demonstrations, the “People’s General Uprising Struggle Headquarters,” and ② the theme song of the demonstrations, “Is This a Country?”
January 5, 2017
The following is from this month’s issue of the monthly magazine WiLL.
If Professor Riki Nishioka of Tokyo Christian University had not clarified the issue of the so-called comfort women, it is doubtful whether the honor and credibility of Japan and the Japanese people, which were damaged by the Asahi Shimbun in the international arena, could ever have been restored.
In light of this, Japan and the Japanese people should bestow upon Professor Nishioka the greatest postwar commendation for his achievements.
From his three-column, ten-page essay, I will introduce only the opening portion here.
For the rest, one must go to a bookstore with just 800 yen in hand.
It is filled with essays well worth purchasing.
All emphasized text in the body other than the headings, and all passages between asterisks, are my own.
“A Gunshot-Less War Engineered by Pro-North Forces”
Riki Nishioka, Professor at Tokyo Christian University
“The President Is Already a Criminal Despite No Investigation or Trial!”
“With the Red-ization of Korea, What About Japan’s Security?”
Truly a People’s Tribunal
It is a people’s tribunal under the name of impeachment.
That was my impression upon seeing the South Korean National Assembly pass the impeachment motion against President Park Geun-hye on December 9.
The Japanese mass media, without conveying the essence of the situation, delight in the scandal of the so-called “anti-Japan president” who had continued “announce-and-accuse diplomacy” aimed at criticizing Japan.
However, what is now taking place in South Korea is a fierce “war without gunfire” that directly affects Japan’s national security.
In this article, I would like to discuss the true nature of the situation, which the Japanese mass media have failed to report.
Put simply, the present situation is a “people’s tribunal” led by radical pro-North leftists who collude with North Korea, and their objective is to establish a pro-North leftist regime that will carry out “the withdrawal of U.S. forces from Korea, the abolition of the National Security Law, and federal unification,” thereby realizing red unification under North Korean leadership.
Any man of foresight should immediately recognize that these slogans of “withdrawal of U.S. forces, abolition of the National Security Law, and federal unification” are exactly the same as those advocated by the two Okinawan newspapers, the Onaga faction, and the Asahi Shimbun that supports them.
What is truly critical is that the core of South Korea’s conservative camp, consisting of the ruling party and conservative media, is turning away from the essence of the crisis and avoiding a fight against leftist agitation.
Conservative newspapers such as the Chosun Ilbo, JoongAng Ilbo, and Dong-A Ilbo took the lead in attacking Park Geun-hye and continued to incite mass mobilization for demonstrations led by radical pro-North forces.
Spurred by this agitation, large numbers of ordinary citizens who are not leftists also joined the anti-Park demonstrations.
Terrified by the volume of anti-Park reporting and by the number of people gathering in the streets, the ruling party split, and, citing the media’s agitation as evidence, allowed the impeachment motion to pass.
However, civic conservative forces and a small number of ruling party lawmakers are now raising their voices to defend South Korea’s liberal democratic system.
Although this is hardly reported in Japan, more than 100,000 citizens have gathered for rallies and demonstrations opposing the impeachment.
The essence of the situation is whether conservative forces can unite to defend South Korea’s liberal democratic system and prevent the establishment of an extreme leftist regime.
Hereafter, I will examine ① the true identity of the force leading the demonstrations, the “People’s General Uprising Struggle Headquarters,” ② the dangerous background of the revolutionary singer Yoon Min-seok who composed the main theme song of the demonstrations, “Is This a Country?”, ③ the mass media’s false reporting on the number of demonstrators and why the impeachment constitutes a “people’s tribunal,” ④ the claims of conservative forces striving to defend the liberal democratic system, and ⑤ the future scenario and what Japan must do.
