I read a post of yours on another thread yesterday and don't remember where but you made a good point regarding the sanctity of honoring the Chinese victims who were fallen by Japanese soldiers first and foremost. I actually agree with you but I disagree about removing Tojo and the 14 other soldiers who were branded by the Tokyo criminal court as war criminals. Justice was served albiet not to the satisfaction of 12 million asians and allied forces including the citizens of JREF.

Remember, this ruling went back and forth on more than one occasion and more than a hundred law makers and politicians visited the shrine the other day so something needs to be addressed regarding Japans legal system which is another argument for another day.

So at least we can agree on one thing Lexico and that is, is that Japan should keep Yasukuni and that the war dead should be honoured and the Chinese should also be remembered and honoured for being victimized during Nanking.

Maciamo...I don't know what to say to you. Can we remain on topic next time ?

Everyone else...Tojo had a voice too and he deserves to be heard as well.
