Hello everyone!
My name is Ysuhiko Yamazaki, Japanese independent journalist in web-media.
I am also a social and political activist.
I broadcast in Japanese edition of "YYNewsLive" everuday by TwitCasting at 13:00 to the Japanese time.
I am also doing the issuance in french edition every Saturday since July 6, 2013.
Tonight is the first issuance in english editon.
The purpose of the issuance in english is to adress myself directly to 500 millions of english speakers in the world and try to let them know the real Japan.
★Here is the title of tonight.(今夜の放送のタイトル)
■ Prime Minister Abe would be the first Prime Ministry after World War II using the Hitler Nazi plot! (安倍首相はナチスヒットラーの謀略工作を使った戦後初めての首相だろう！）
I show you the 3 photos.
The first one is an illustration pulished with the article of title " A gaffe-prone Japan is a danger to peace in Asia"in the newspaer of "The Financial Times." on 12th August 2013
I quote the article describing this illustration.
<Japan unveiled the largest naval vessel it has built since the second world war. The ship is nominally a destroyer -- but it is an aircraft carrier in all but name. Beefing up the Japanese navy is arguably a legitimate response to China's arms build-up. But, at a time of rising tensions in Asian seas, Japan should tread carefully. So what genius decided to call this new ship “Izumo”-- the samename as a Japanese warship that took part in the invasion of China in the 1930s.>
The second one is a photo taken on 12th May 2013 in Matsushima base of Army of Japan Air Self-Defence in Miyagi Prefecture.
I also quote the article describing this photo.
< The Japanese prime minister was photographed giving a thumbs-up from the cockpit of a trainer-jet with the number 731 painted prominently on the side. But 731as the number of a unit of the Japanese imperial army, notorious for carrying out biological and chemical experiments on humans being.>
The third one is a photo taken on May 5th 2013 at Kourakuen Stadium Tokyo of baseball when Mr Abe gave the People's Honor Award a Shigeo Nagashima famous director of baseball and Hideki Matsui popular baseball player. Nagashima and MatsuiI sent to Mr Abe an uniform jersey number # 96 in return.
The number of 96 is not just a coincidence.It is the article 96 of the Constitution which requirs to the each parlement two thirds of the number of legislatorsin norder to propose the constitutionaamendment.
Mr.Abe wants to change the number of legislators to half in palce of two thirds by resising the article 96.
This photo tells us the meaning of Prime Minister Abe's ambition.
It is to amend Article 96 of the ambition of 96 Amendments to be changed to half から two thirds the number of legislators required to proposal of constitutional reform in parliament first for constitutional reform that Prime Minister Abe meditate this photo tells us the meaning.
Ireprint below the full article of the Finanshal Times.Please3 read it.
▲ A gaffe-prone Japan is a danger to peace in Asia
August 12, 2013 Financial Times by Gideon Rachman
The Abe governments disastrous public diplomacy risks alienating not just China but also the US
Japan’s public diplomacy hovers between the ludicrous and the sinister. In recent months, the country has specialised in foreign policy gaffes that seem designed to give maximum offence to its Asian neighbours while causing maximum embarrassment to its western allies.
Last week provided another example. Japan unveiled the largest naval vessel it has built since the second world war. The ship is nominally a destroyer -- but it is an aircraft carrier in all but name. Beefing up the Japanese navy is arguably a legitimate response to China’s arms build-up. But, at a time of rising tensions in Asian seas, Japan should tread carefully. So what genius decided to call this new ship “Izumo” -- the same name as a Japanese warship that took part in the invasion of China in the 1930s.
China was quick to charge Japan with deliberate provocation. Such an accusation would be easier to brush aside if the naming of the Izumo was an isolated incident. But just a few days earlier Taro Aso, Japan’s deputy prime minister, was caught suggesting that the Nazis might provide a suitable model for efforts to revise Japan’s pacifist constitution. “We should proceed quietly,” Mr Aso mused. “One day people realised that the Weimar constitution had changed into the Nazi constitution. No one had noticed. Why don’t we learn from that approach?” The unsurprising outcry that greeted these remarks forced an official spokesman to issue a clarification: “The Abe administration does not perceive Nazi Germany in a positive light.”
Just a couple of months earlier, it was Shinzo Abe who committed an offensive gaffe. The Japanese prime minister was photographed giving a thumbs-up from the cockpit of a trainer-jet with the number 731 painted prominently on the side. But 731 was the number of a unit of the Japanese imperial army, notorious for carrying out biological and chemical experiments on humans. I was in South Korea at the time the photo appeared in May -- and almost every Korean I spoke to was convinced that it was a deliberate provocation. At the time I dismissed that view as paranoia. But now I am not quite so sure. Since then, Park Geun-hye, South Korea’s new president, has pointedly paid a state visit to Beijing before visiting Tokyo -- breaking with a precedent set by her four predecessors.
The Japanese government’s attitude to its wartime past will be further tested this Thursday: August 15 is when conservative politicians often visit the Yasukuni shrine in Tokyo to pay tribute to Japan’s war dead. The shrine contains the remains of 14 convicted war criminals, so these visits invariably cause great offence elsewhere in Asia. This year it appears that Mr Abe and his most senior cabinet colleagues will resist the temptation to visit Yasukuni, although many junior members of the government are likely to go.
But relative restraint on Yasukuni cannot undo all the damage that has already been caused. Japan’s western friends are alarmed. One longtime resident of Tokyo, with good contacts in the government, calls this “Japan’s most nationalistic government since 1945”. He adds that some of those in Mr Abe’s circle give the impression that “the only thing wrong with the second world war was that Japan lost”. This kind of thinking risks alienating not just China, but also the US -- upon whose protection Japan relies. Indeed, senior American officials now seem just as concerned by Japanese nationalism as by the Chinese variety. In a recent article, Kurt Campbell -- who was US assistant secretary of state for Asia in President Barack Obama’s first term -- expressed worry about the risk of war in the Pacific, and noted that “both Tokyo and Beijing are determined to ... play to nationalist domestic sentiments”.
The Abe government’s disastrous public diplomacy must be a nightmare for the country’s many able diplomats, as they seek to protect Japanese interests in an increasingly dangerous region. It is particularly regrettable because some of Mr Abe’s ideas for reviving his nation point in the right direction. “Abenomics” is a risky but long overdue initiative to tackle Japanese deflation. There is even a decent argument for revising Japan’s post?-war constitution to allow the country to do more for its own defence.
As Chinese power grows, it is increasingly anomalous for Japan -- the world’s third-largest economy -- to be so utterly dependent on the US for its security. The current arrangement places strains on both Japan and America. It makes Japan neurotic and resentful about the extent of its reliance on the US. And it makes the Americans anxious that a government in Tokyo could drag them into a war with China.
A better-balanced arrangement would see a loosening of America’s security guarantee to Japan so that minor territorial disputes in the East China Sea could no longer pose a risk of provoking a world war. In return, Japan could be allowed -- and even encouraged -- to build up its own military forces.
Any such shift in the strategic balance in Asia would be bound to cause palpitations from Beijing to Seoul, and beyond. As a result, it would have to be handled with the utmost diplomatic skill and delicacy. Instead, we have ministers in Tokyo who specialise in unconstructive ambiguity about Japan’s imperial past and bizarre gaffes about Nazis and torture squads. It would almost be funny, if it were not so serious -- and so dangerous
