Facts like this MSNBC poll showing 94% of the people thinking that Bush with his cabal's pack of lies steered the United States into the Iraq war disaster. A tsunami of dissent rolls...

【緊急】8.15抗議運動で、不当逮捕!支援のお願い

Emergency Statement by the Supporters Group of the Four Unlawfully Arrested

8月15日の靖国事件に抗議する声明

               救援会声明

 2005年8月15日、軍国主義と民族排外主義を
掲げる右翼団体が靖国神社にあつまり、6千人の大集会
を行いました。核武装を主張する安倍晋三、石原慎太郎
をはじめとして、複数の閣僚と多くの国会議員が、右翼
団体とともに靖国神社に参拝し、戦没兵士への「哀悼」
の意を表しました。それは、かつての東アジアへの侵略
戦争から現在のイラク戦争に至るまで、他国の民衆への
虐殺行為を不問にし、自らの加害と被害を無関心の淵に
沈めることで、戦争を容認するものです。
 正午の時報を合図に、軍国主義者たちが黙祷を捧げ、
そこから数百メートル離れた路上で、戦争反対を訴える
私たちの友人が警察官に逮捕されました。かれらは、
戦没兵士への「追悼」がさらなる戦争を準備するもの
であることをうったえ、戦争と軍国主義に反対する
プラカードを掲げていました。プラカードを持った
約50名の市民が靖国神社に向かって足をすすめよう
とするなかで、おおぜいの重装備の警察官が彼らを
取り囲み、たまたま通りがかっただけの人々をも
まきこんで、暴力的に圧迫しました。

On August 2005, Japanese right-wing groups who hoisted banners proclaiming support for militarism and Xenophobia had a big conference with six thousand participants at Yasukuni Shrine, Tokyo. At the same time as these rightists, politicians arguing in favor of Japan’s nuclear armament, including Shinzo Abe and Shintaro Ishihara, and a number of Cabinet and Diet members visited the shrine to offer their “condolences” to the war dead on the 60th anniversary of the “end” of the war.

Collectively their actions are tantamount to acceptance of wars ranging from Japan’s past aggression in East Asia to the recent Iraq War, overlooking Japan’s responsibility for bloodshed and the massacre of people in other countries, pushing Japan’s own history as perpetrator and the lives of its victims into the abyss of forgetfulness ofindifference.
