It is said that 116 members of the "Concerned" assembly of the Liberal-Democratic Party gathered and formed "the Bright Japan" Parliamentarians' League.

The notorious reactionary former Minister of Justice Okuno and Itagaki of the member of the Diet are placing the name in the line.

The purpose is to review "the education of history" etc.

That is, "We cannot side with the self-torment history recognition to see Japan as the aggressor nation with guilt feeling and the mean apology diplomacy. We regain the important thing that we lost after the war and aim at the promotion of the healthy Japanese."

What kind of race is "the Healthy Japanese" of they say might be clear because, for instance, Itagaki and Okuno talked openly as follows, that is, "There were the war correspondent and the nurse for the military, but there were not the comfort women 'for the military'.

They are the persons who participated as the commercial activity.

There were not the compulsive taking though the benefit of traffic might have been proffered (by the country and military) in the battlefield" etc.

We cannot consider such races to be "the Healthy Japanese" in any meaning.

Because, it is from the simple reason that they misinterpret or are denying the fact.

Of course, the workers are unrelated to "the self-torment history recognition" and "the mean apology diplomacy", etc. Even if there are these kinds of things, it has been done so to speak by liberal powers (that is, the companions of the reactionaries) and is not taking part completely of the workers.

The workers pursue the past "sin" and "crime" of the ruling class trough entirely different method, through entirely different road.

The reason why the workers do not know "the self-torment history recognition" etc. is that they have confirmed that the past war and crime are not basically "the Responsibility" of the working class but "the Responsibility" of the bourgeoisie and the reactionary and what they committed.

The ruling class must deny own "Crime" and conceal it.

However, the workers do not have such necessities at all.

Contrarily, the workers are interested in the thorough exposure and prosecution of the crime (even though it is the present one or the past one) of the ruling class.

What the workers regret and reflect was that the huge "Crime" of the ruling class, that war to the first on the list, has not been pursued thoroughly and has not been "Punished" until now.

However, this might be impossible until the working class win the victory and have powers.

As long as the bourgeoisie rule and are having powers, their crimes continue.

The necessity is not to demand them "the apology" but to overthrow their powers.
