This paper deserves a Nobel Peace Prize.

The following is an excerpt from Mr. Sekihei's column in the monthly magazine Hanada, published on the 26th.
I have been writing about the facts revealed by this unmistakable and authentic paper, especially in the international community and the United Nations.
As you know, I have been the most severe critic of the international community, the United Nations, the media, and so-called intellectuals, who have continued to ignore these obvious facts that even a kindergarten child can understand.
It is no exaggeration to say that this paper is worthy of the Nobel Peace Prize.
It clearly shows that one of the most significant obstacles to peace is a reality of the 21st century.
It is a must-read not only for the Japanese people but also for people worldwide.

The Real Nature of Chinese "Anti-Japanese Sentiment"
In light of recent incidents such as the case of the Chinese man who committed an insulting act against Yasukuni Shrine and the case of the Japanese mother and child who were slashed by a mob in Suzhou, I will consider the issue of "anti-Japanese sentiment" in China.
In this column, I have explained that so-called "anti-Japanese sentiment" was almost non-existent in China before the 1990s.
In particular, the 1980s was a period when Japanese popular culture, from films to anime, swept the nation.
The prevailing sentiment of the time was "Learn from Japan."
Most Chinese had a generally positive impression of Japan and a sense of admiration for it.
It suggests something vital about the "historical issues." 
The Chinese government consistently explains that the reason for the rise in anti-Japanese sentiment in China is due to the brutal acts committed by the Japanese military in China during the Second Sino-Japanese War, but this is a blatant lie.
If events during the war were the cause of anti-Japanese sentiment, then there would have been stronger anti-Japanese sentiment in the 1980s or earlier, when memories of the war were fresher than they are today.
However, as mentioned above, the facts are entirely different.
In other words, the events during the war had nothing to do with anti-Japanese sentiment in China.
So, when and what triggered the anti-Japanese sentiment of the Chinese people?
The trigger was the massive killing of young people by the Chinese Communist Party during the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989.
The then-Jiang Zemin administration promoted anti-Japanese education on a nationwide scale to divert the resentment and hatred of the Chinese people toward the "foreign enemy."
It gave rise to and nurtured the monster of "anti-Japanese sentiment" (as detailed in my book, "Why Do Chinese People Hate Japanese People?" (PHP Research Institute, 2002)).
Furthermore, the anti-Japanese education promoted by the Jiang Zemin administration and subsequent Communist Party administrations was not limited to school education.
For several decades from the early 1990s, the Communist Party government used all media and methods at its disposal, including television, film, newspapers, and publishing, to carry out a genuinely nationwide "all-round anti-Japanese education" on an ongoing basis for all Chinese citizens.
One example is the mass production and almost daily broadcast of television dramas based on the Second Sino-Japanese War.
By repeatedly showing and emphasizing scenes of Japanese soldiers savagely killing women and children in China, they instilled hatred toward the Japanese people. 
As a result of years of vicious anti-Japanese education being carried out in all directions, intense anti-Japanese sentiment, or more accurately, "hatred of Japan" with no basis whatsoever, was created and took root in the hearts and minds of many Chinese people, especially the generation that received their schooling from the 1990s onwards.
It is the "true nature of anti-Japanese sentiment" among the Chinese people to this day. 
As a result, for example, in 2005, there were large-scale anti-Japanese demonstrations and riots throughout China.
The incident at the beginning of this article, in which a Chinese national insulted Yasukuni Shrine, as well as the attack on a Japanese mother and child that occurred in China, both stemmed from the Chinese people's national anti-Japanese sentiment and feelings of hatred. 
Although the Suzhou incident, in which a man attacked a Japanese mother and child, was barely reported in the Japanese media, at one point, the Chinese internet was full of comments praising the assailant, saying things like "Well done! You did the right thing" and "The person who did it is a hero of the nation!"
One Chinese woman called the Suzhou Public Security Bureau, where the assailant was being held.
She demanded that he be released, spouting out her violent rhetoric, such as "Japanese are animals, and it's only natural to kill animals."
I think you can see just how extreme and crazy the anti-Japanese sentiment and hatred of the Chinese people can be. 
What we, as Japanese, in particular, need to be aware of is that this anti-Japanese sentiment and hatred is not just prevalent at the level of ordinary citizens but permeates the entire Chinese Communist Party regime.
That is why the Chinese ambassador to Japan, whose job it is to maintain relations with Japan, can openly spout outrageous remarks such as "the Japanese people will be dragged into the fire." 
Furthermore, the Xi Jinping administration not only tolerates the existence of distorted anti-Japanese sentiment within the country but also deliberately encourages and preserves it.
China's economy is in collapse, and there are a large number of unemployed people, mainly young people.
People's dissatisfaction and resentment towards the government are increasing. 
Just as the former Jiang Zemin administration created anti-Japanese sentiment and directed the people's resentment towards Japan, there is always the danger that the Xi Jinping administration will use existing anti-Japanese sentiment to direct the "explosion of resentment" towards Japan to avert a domestic crisis and take steps to further incite anti-Japanese sentiment. 
One of our most important issues is how to deal with this dangerous dictatorship, where the majority of the people and the entire nation have become "anti-Japanese."
