日本の時間、世界の時間。
The time of Japan, the time of the world

Last night, around bedtime, I watched a movie on wowow for the first time in a long time.

The following is written as a reminder for a paper that I will be submitting at a later date.
Last night, around bedtime, I watched a movie on wowow for the first time in a long time.
It was a Dutch film about Jews overrun by the Nazis.

Japan is in the path of a typhoon. 
I remember coming home as a child feeling relieved when my school was closed or canceled early because of the typhoon.
However, the typhoon that recently hit Osaka was not at all like that.
It was the first violent and dangerous typhoon I had ever experienced.
Japan's skyscrapers are second only to the most robust nuclear power plants in human history and to bridges and other structures built with Japan's world-class bridge technology.
These buildings shook for around an hour when they landed in Kobe.
The building had experienced the Great Hanshin Earthquake, so even though it was a skyscraper, I wondered if the piles in the ground had been damaged.

If this skyscraper collapsed, I wondered if I would survive.
The next day, the Nakanoshima Center Building in the center of Osaka City was shaking so much, probably because it was so high up, that many people felt seasick, and some even got sick, according to newspaper articles.

From here, I would like to write about what I want to let the people of Japan and the world know and remind them of.
On the first floor of my apartment building, there is an open green space where trees are planted and children play.
Two trees planted in the green space were brutally felled.
The glass at the entrance was also broken...something solid must have flown in.
Osaka that day looked like a tornado had hit it.
At first, I thought, "Oh, this typhoon is powerful," but then something like a metal plate disappeared at a tremendous speed.
For the first time, I knew this was out of the ordinary, so I moved away from the window. 
If I were to be hit directly by something like that, it would be a big problem.
In addition, the high-rise buildings were shaking, and the shaking did not stop. 
On the news the next day, a lady said, "I did not feel alive..." which must have been true for everyone.

Well,
What was excellent, however, was how quickly the Japanese people acted.
Two days after the earthquake, the first floor of my apartment building was tidied up as if nothing had happened.
The same thing happened after the Hokkaido earthquake that struck Japan.
Even with such terrible damage, the Japanese people began to rebuild on the same day.
Needless to say, the best players are the members of the Self-Defense Forces.
It is the Self-Defense Forces that the Asahi Shimbun, NHK, the so-called culturists, and the opposition parties such as the Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan and the Communist Party have been hating on.

People worldwide are well aware that this attitude of the Japanese is the best in the world.
Then, why are the Japanese able to move in this way?
Comparing this attitude of the Japanese with that of the countries that have been repeatedly telling off the UN CERD with anti-Japanese propaganda, it is even more apparent.

I have mentioned several times that I once learned the truth about the Korean Peninsula in one hour.
What is remarkable about China and the Korean Peninsula, both countries of "abysmal evil" and "plausible lies," is the harsh system of class discrimination.
The Korean Peninsula was evil...Even prostitutes were classified into public and private categories.
First, women on the Korean peninsula did not have names until Japan made it a part of a commonwealth.
The Korean peninsula was one of the worst male-dominated societies in history.
The country was ruled by a king and a yangban (which I immediately recognized as a prototype of the Japanese yakuza, as I have already mentioned) who lived off "protection money" from their neighbors and did not work.

Women were the property of the yangban.
The yangban could rape, humiliate, and even kill women without being charged with a crime. 
It was the reality of the Korean peninsula before the Japanese took over.
That was the reality of the Korean peninsula before the Japanese took over in 1910.
It still runs in the veins of the Korean people.
In Korea, those who fail to get a job at Samsung are losers.
It is no different from the ancient system of the national examination.
It would be even more intense.
With the incredible amount of studying for exams = competition, young Koreans do not spend their days reading and engaging in various activities that Japanese youngsters read about in their teenage years.
Becoming a white-collar employee of Samsung is the goal of the Korean elite.
It can be said that they are thoroughly selfish.
In Korea, workers are despised.
It is precisely what proves that the traditions of both groups are still alive and well in this country.
According to Professor Hiroshi Furuta, one of the world's leading experts on the Korean peninsula, it is "as it was in ancient times."
I agree.

What about Japan, on the other hand?
The people of the Korean Peninsula, one of the world's most discriminatory nations, and China, the world's largest violator of human rights and oppressor of ethnic groups, have joined together to repeat anti-Japanese propaganda in the UN CERD, calling Japan a discriminatory nation.
Some truly despicable people call themselves scholars and the like who must be suffering from their money traps and honey traps.
They have many problems in their own country.
They are from a racist group of countries whose people are so poor that they cannot even be compared to Japan, and yet they continue to talk nonsense about Japan as a nation that violates human rights!

I assert here and now,
For example, some say Japan is a discriminatory nation because of the distinction between samurai, farmers, artisans, and merchants during the Edo period.
Or, there are those led by the Asahi Shimbun who claim that Japan is a discriminatory nation because of the Buraku system that accompanied the Buraku system.
China and the Korean Peninsula have used this as an opportunity to attack Japan throughout the postwar period.
The Chinese and Koreans absolutely cannot act like the Japanese.
It is because they are people who have discriminated against and still discriminate against workers.
Japan, however, is different.
The difference in status is common to all countries, both East and West.
As a result, enslaved people existed in the West, China, the Korean Peninsula, and elsewhere.
Japan, however, is the only country in the world where enslaved people did not exist.

In Japan, we sometimes hear stories of slavery; usually, when a mentally feeble child is born to a wealthy family in the countryside, the family takes advantage of their wealth to build a luxurious detached house like a tatami room and raise the child there.
Sometimes, these people become adults and walk the streets.
The bad children I encountered would make merry.
I have had such an experience in my hometown.
In Japan, mentally feeble children who come from wealthy families are usually isolated in their compound so as not to cause trouble outside.

In other words, they do this not for others but for their people (so that others will not be inconvenienced) when something abnormal occurs in their own family.

I see it clearly now.
No discrimination in Japan remains in the rest of the world today.
Even when there was status discrimination, everyone looked up to each other, each at a glance.
That is why Japanese artisans are in every field and at every level.
Once a problem arises, everyone quickly shows their craftsmanship by taking action, helping others, and repairing the land.
In other words, in the true sense of the word, there has been no discrimination in Japan since ancient times.
From the emperor on down, it has been the standard system of human beings throughout the ages.
There has always been a sense of respect for all people among the Japanese people since ancient times.

Last night's movie was terrible.
The heroine, Elise, a Jewish girl, had not only her family brutalized by the Nazis but also all her gold and silver stolen right in front of her eyes.
The lone survivor, Elise, vows revenge against the Nazis, becomes a spy, and succeeds in becoming the mistress of the targeted German officer.
Unlike the officer, however, the officer's superior, who was the embodiment of Nazi evil, knew of her true identity and kept her in the dark.
As a result, the Resistance went to the prison to recover the prisoners, but this was a complete trap set by the superior, and most of them were killed.
Ellis was branded a traitor by his people.
The story is set on the eve of the end of the war.

After Germany surrendered, the terrible reprisals began.
Many of you may have seen the women's hair being cut off and exposed in public in the documentary films of the time.
Last night's film, produced by Holland, depicts the jail where Ellis and the others were held.
In the morning, many of the people who had been locked up in their respective prisons were found crammed together in the same room, where buckets of filth were placed.
All are taken out of their prisons and gathered in the assembly hall, where each jailer is made to carry their filth bucket and put it in a large container.
Then, a vengeful and violent mob arrives and strips the men and women naked.
Ellis resists but is helpless.
As punishment for her defiance, she is thrown naked in front of the filth bin, and her whole body is covered with filth.

I was convinced after watching this film that the 21st century is also the century of war.
I was convinced that the 21st century was also the century of war, that World War II resulted from World War I, that it all started in Europe, and that Japan was merely involved in it.
Japan was never the leading actor in the century of war.
In other words, Japan's war was not like that at all.

If the wars in Europe were lumped together with the Nazi wars, Japan's wars were nothing like the Nazi wars.
It is the brainwashing of the occupying forces that has continued to portray the Japanese military as the villains that they are,
They wanted to cover up the fact that they were the ones who incited the 'Americans and English people are satanic animals that is the Great Satan' 'Suicide attack of honor by one hundred million people' 'A soldier must never suffer the disgrace of being captured alive.' 'I will not ask for it. Until I win. Luxuries are your enemy.',
These are lies created by these people under the banner of the idiotic cultural figures who have been selling anti-Japanese propaganda at Iwanami Tower.

If you think about your father and grandfather, you will instantly understand that they created this lie and spread it to the world.

Needless to say, in times of war, military discipline was much stricter than in times of peace.
War is the exact opposite of things like TV talk shows.
It is a battlefield where a momentary lapse of action or a mistake can be fatal.
It is not a world of "easy" and "so-so.

But that does not mean that what has been said since the end of the war about the atrocities of the Japanese military is a lie and a fabrication of the Asahi Shimbun and others.
