An infuriating scene
Taiwan's first bronze statue of "comfort women" was unveiled in Tainan on August 14, when former Taiwan leader Ma Ying-jeou attended the unveiling ceremony, and the Japanese side was highly concerned about the matter at that time.
Unexpectedly, not long after the unveiling of the bronze statue of the "comfort women", an angry scene occurred.
According to a revelation by Xie Longjie, a public opinion representative of the kuomintang's tainan city local legislature, 16 groups, including Japan's "National Movement Organization for the Truth about Comfort Women," sent representative Shihiko Fujii to Tainan to discuss the issue of "comfort women" materials with the chairman of the Kuomintang party department, and to the Tainan City party department to submit a letter of public questioning.
According to information, the "Comfort Women" Truth National Movement is a Japanese right-wing group founded on July 29, 2013, to defend the so-called "japanese reputation" on the issue of "comfort women."
Xie Ryusuke said that at that time, he thought that Fujii was only discussing with himself about the "comfort women" related materials on display, but afterwards some people reflected to him that he saw Fujii kicking the bronze statue at the scene that day.
On Facebook, Xie Ryusuke solemnly condemned the Japanese representative for insulting the bronze statue of comfort women↑
Regarding the practice of Japanese representative Shihiko Fujii, Xie Ryusuke posted on Facebook criticizing it bitterly, "It is tolerable, it is intolerable."
After the incident, the media condemned his behavior, and netizens also left messages denouncing Japanese representatives.
Angry Taiwanese poured into Fujii's social media messages, calling him shameful and demanding an apology. Fujii, on the other hand, blocked Facebook's basic information section and closed a large number of public posts. The people of Taiwan then turned to Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Facebook message, asking Fujii to immediately go to the bronze statue of the comfort women to apologize to the Taiwanese "comfort women".
Seeing that the anger from all walks of life in Taiwan was getting louder and louder, Fujii Shihiko finally issued a statement against the "bronze statue kicking incident" through the "Comfort Women's Movement" at 8:20 p.m. on the 10th after disappearing for a few hours. In his statement, he claimed he "did not kick the bronze statue of the comfort women." He argued that he had traveled from Japan to Tainan and maintained the same posture in his seat for a long time, so he would have some bad luck and numbness in his feet, so he stretched his feet many times, but he was unexpectedly smeared by screenshots.
However, the monitor images clearly recorded Fujii's picture. In the picture, Fujii's movement of raising his leg and kicking the bronze statue is clearly visible. ↓
In response to Fujii Shihiko's statement, Li Zhenghao, the founder of the Kuomintang Youth Sub-League Grass Association Alliance, pointed out on Facebook that justifying such bad lines is an insult to Taiwan's IQ, or is it the IQ of the Japanese? But it is not surprising that Fujii Shigehiko would argue in this way, because he is the representative of the group of people in Japan who have the least courage and commitment.
Such acts are by no means isolated
In fact, this is not the first time that japanese people have disrespected the statue of "comfort women".
Last year, yasukisa Tsutsui, the original author of the theatrical version of "The Girl Who Traveled Through Time" and a well-known Japanese writer, sent a tweet, exposing him to the collective bombardment of Japanese and South Korean netizens.
The Twitter translation reads as follows:
Ambassador Changling went to South Korea again, which means acquiescing to the comfort women's statue. That girl is very cute, so everyone goes to her ** (to do indecent behavior).""
South Korea's "comfort women" girl statue is a statue set up to commemorate the comfort women of World War II, although Tsutsutsui has always been very mouthless, known for its satire of various political current affairs, but this blatant call for the public to make indecent behavior against the comfort women statues, or he in Japan and South Korea have become the target of netizen attacks in Japan and South Korea.
Some people think that Tsutsui's remarks are "dirty and despicable.". Some Japanese netizens feel that Yasuro Tsutsui is simply a scum.
Some netizens commented that "in Japan, many people regard the statue of a girl who symbolizes peace as a symbol of 'anti-Japanese', and there are many men like Yasutaka Tsutsui, so we need a peaceful girl statue more." ”
As for the "comfort women" issue, the Japanese government does not recognize, apologize, or compensate! When this concept had to be discussed in diplomatic settings, the Japanese government frequently made grotesque remarks intending to steal the concept of "comfort women".
In an interview, Abe once referred to "comfort women" as "victims of human trafficking" and did not mention that Japan was the perpetrator of the "comfort women" problem; the Abe government also openly demanded that the author of the United Nations "comfort women" report remove the Content of the Japanese Government's relevant responsibilities, apologies and compensation to the victims.
In Japanese high school history textbooks, the expression "comfort women" is hardly found.
What are comfort women?
That's a national wound!
It has been 73 years since the victory of the War of Resistance Against Japan, and the wounds of the nation are still bare, and the wounds left in people's hearts are still far from healing.
The most painful point is undoubtedly the atrocities committed against Chinese women and the Japanese military's sexual slavery system, and it can be said that the heinous crimes committed by Japanese soldiers against Chinese women during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression were also the ugliest, dirtiest, and darkest pages of World War II.
After the all-out war of aggression against China, everywhere the Japanese army went, whether in cities or villages, there were a large number of rape incidents, and the number of Chinese women killed was uncountable.
In November 1937, after the Japanese army occupied Suzhou, it raped 1,320 Chinese women and drove more than 230 women to a large mansion for their general-level officers to rape en masse. In December, when the Japanese army occupied Yangzhou, it raped 350 Chinese women in one day alone on the 19th. On December 21, the Japanese command announced "free movement", and more than a thousand women were raped by Japanese officers and soldiers.
With the expansion of the war of aggression against China, sexual violence has also increased dramatically.
The crime of rape of Chinese women in Nanjing reached its peak. Europeans and Americans in Nanjing at that time used diaries, photos, and film films to truly record the japanese army's bestiality. Rough estimates show that more than 80,000 women were humiliated in Nanjing, of whom 65,000 were killed.
During World War II, at least 400,000 women around the world became sex slaves in the Japanese military, with victims in China, the Korean Peninsula, across Southeast Asia, Japan, and a small number of white women in Asia. Of these, 70 per cent were Chinese women, who had suffered humiliation and suffering unprecedentedly.
The Global Times published an editorial on the 10th, pointing out: We do not believe that societies in East Asia need to continue to feud with today's Japan for historical reasons, and that the development of friendly relations with Japan has today's legitimacy. However, this does not affect everyone's memory of history and respect for historical facts. Japanese society, in particular, should respect the memory of that painful history in East Asian societies and not actively stimulate this memory by radical actions such as denying history.
Such evil deeds as Fujii's kicking and kicking of comfort women are not only angry among the public on both sides of the Taiwan Strait, but should also be condemned by the Japanese side and morally cut off from them. This clown must not be allowed to stir up trouble in creating new wounds and wounds between East Asian societies.
Some people, some history, some pain,
We can't avoid it.
It is also resolute not to be blasphemed by others!
