Constitutional Revision Leads to Warlike State

Japan has buckled down to modifying the constitution after the presidential election of the Liberal Democratic Party.

The clique of Abe, who was re-elected as LDP president, is openly billing "constitutional revision in 2019 and enforcement of the new constitution in 2020" as its goal.

At a news conference after the election Abe said "he would make safe Japan and push ahead with constitutional revision together with the lawmakers from LDP."

He is about to form the Cabinet and the LDP leadership with ultra-right conservatives supporting the projected constitutional revision and denying the crime-woven past, and submit a bill on constitutional revision to the Diet.

LDP broke the precedent of having a prior discussion with the coalition New Komeito Party before submitting a bill, and decided to submit independently the above-said bill, the backbone of which is specification of the grounds of having the "Self-Defense Forces" and a paragraph related to emergency situation in the constitution, during an extraordinary session of the Diet which will open on October 24.

Abe, who is crazily pursuing the wild ambition for modifying the constitution, blustered while reviewing SDF troops at its drill ground on October 14 that it is the duty of every politician at present to make an environment for all SDF members to complete their missions with much pride and that he would do his bit to do so. He thus openly revealed again his ulterior design to specify SDF in the Paragraph IX of the constitution.

This sheds light on the sinister design to materialize the old dream of the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere", which failed to come true in the past century, by making Japan a "normal country" with the belligerent right after discarding the deceptive cloak of a "pacifist state" with the existing constitution.

Not only the opposition parties and the public of Japan but also south Korea and other countries are bitterly criticizing LDP's independent project for constitutional revision aimed at reviving militarism.

Japan should make a right choice.

Its only way to become a "normal state" is to seriously reflect on its past crime-woven history of aggression and atone for it at an early date.

Constitutional revision will only make it a "warlike state."

The Abe cult, which seeks to make a "state capable of going to war" by modifying even the constitution for the reason that it puts the brake on the pursuance of its wild ambition for launching invasion, had better not forget the disgrace and humiliation Japan met 70-odd years ago.
