Chinese Anti-Japan Protests
Chinese Anti-Japan Protests
04/19/2005 03:56 AM
There is a good blog post
by Andrea about bloggers in China talking about the anti-Japan
protests.
As a Japanese who has a great deal of sympathy and empathy for
China, what I find difficult is trying to understand the various
threads and how Japanese people can try to make a difference. In
particular, the hateful and extreme actions of some of the Chinese
make it difficult, if not scary to even try to open a dialog. At the
same time, the extremes in China are fueling the nationalists in Japan
and not helping the cause for the more moderate voices. I believe hate
will never help communications.
One of the biggest problems is that most Japanese don't understand
the issues. Another point is that most Japanese are not great
supporters of the military. When I think about the military in Japan,
I don't think dirty nationalist thoughts. Rather, I think about May 15, 1932
when Prime Minister Inukai was
assassinated by the military which ended party-based politics in Japan
until after WWII. I think about the Japanese military taking over the
government and sending Japan into one of the worst periods in its
history. I think about the small children being sent off to war as
Kamikaze or human torpedos and I think about the letters homes from
them that are enshrined in Yasukuni Shrine. There are letters from
terrified little boys writing about how scared they are about going to
war. Most Japanese do not trust the military and most Japanese believe
that the military run government of the 30's was an illegitimate
government as a result of a coup. Many Japanese believe that the
Japanese people were victims of the military.
Having said that, I do think that the text books and teaching in
Japan underplays the actions of the military in China and I believe
the Japanese text books are a real problem that should be addressed. I
really think that the Japanese don't understand how victimized the
Chinese and Koreans were and I believe this education needs to occur.
I would point out that it is not just this aspect of Japanese
textbooks that is broken. Japanese text don't use the word
"revolution" or "civil war". It was the "Meiji Restoration", "The
American fight for independence", the US Civil War is the "North South
War" etc. There was a move to simplify Pi to just 3. In other words,
the Japanese ministry of education needs an overhaul. Maybe they
should use Wikipedia instead.
I'm not trying to trivialize the issues that are being protested by
the Chinese, but if they are trying to cause change in Japan, maybe
some of them can try to talk to their allies in Japan like me instead
of trying to force or scare into submission their enemy. A reasonable
bridge building effort between activists and experts on both sides to
try to address the issues through tactical maneuvers might be
useful.
Or am I missing the point completely?

Reports of recent
Anti-Japanese demonstrations in China lack any details about
the content in the disputed history text books. Is it related to the
Nanjing Massacre, which
Iris Chang wrote about in her much contested book
"
The Rape of Nanking"?
The Chinese government is certainly not acting as a shining example of
upholding
human rights by any
means, but does that deprive its people from the right to have part of
their history at least adequately remembered ?
And is the Chinese Government using this collective wound to further
its own
national interests such as keeping
Japan from
joining the UNSC?

Xeni Jardin:
Following up on yesterday's BoingBoing posts (
one,
two) about opposition to the MPAA's ridicule-inspiring "
respectcopyrights
.org" ad campaign, we have an update from
blogger provocateur
Defamer -- in-theater civil disobedience!
Yesterday's "call to arms" to resist the MPAA's cloying "Respect
Copyrights" PSAs is off to a great start. In fact, some readers took
the protest to the next, completely awesome level, leaving us somewhat
ashamed that we didn't think this up in the first place. Pirate
taunts! [One reader says:]
"So we took the 'put an end to piracy' portion of the Manny Perry ad
and ran with it..... Imagine twenty coeds and their gentlemen friends
standing in their seats hurling archaic curses and 'ARRRRRRRR's at the
screen for the duration of the clip. Surprisingly, we drew chuckles,
not Diet Cokes to the head, from our fellow patrons. Viva La
Resistance!"

Bush's plan to invade Iraq.
You people are some of the most disgusting examples of a waste of
protoplasm I’ve ever had the displeasure to hear about.
Sean Penn, you’re a traitor to the United States of America. You
gave
aid and comfort to the enemy. How many American lives will your
little, ”fact finding trip“ to Iraq cost? You encouraged Saddam to
think that we didn’t have the stomach for war.
You people protect one of the most evil men on the face of this
earth
and won’t lift a finger to save the life of an unborn baby.
Freedom

choice you say?
