@RedbananaTH @Big_Hat_L0gan @RagnarFurup @BadWWIITakes Your magic words are all refuted.

It was Soviet that attacked Japan with Biological Warfare first.
The cover up was done by Soviet with a fake trial, Khavarovsk Trial blaming Japan.

@RedbananaTH @Big_Hat_L0gan @RagnarFurup @BadWWIITakes KOREAN scholars say
#comfortwomen were prostitues.

Some poor women were sold/deceived by their parents or brokers(Not Japanese military).
But they changed testimonies blaiming Japan.
Japan was cracking down bad human traffickers.

#AGT talent #GONZO believes Asian #comfortwomen who were subject to #sexualenslavement during WWI were NOT #forcefullyrecruited by the #JapaneseImperialArmy (even with local help) and expresses support to the #revisionists who are pressuring an established encyclopedia publisher.

https://twitter.com/gonzotambourine/status/1490887734000439297

#GONZO appears to base his assertion on dozen of newspaper articles that #Asahi retracted in 2014 about false testimonies of a novelist who claimed to have participated in raids that #forcefullyrecruited Korean women, which was considered only one of many sources by historians.

https://twitter.com/gonzotambourine/status/1490909973886369792

As indicated in #Asahi’s independent committee report & other media reports, Asahi only retracted the articles that pertain to these false testimonies and did not retract their conviction that #comfortwomen were #forcefullyrecruited one way or the other. asahi.com/shimbun/3rd/20…

Anti-Japan Tribalism on the Comfort Women Issue
Inconsistent court rulings are a reflection of Korean thinking.By Lee Wooyoun November 14, 2021
____
In December 2015, the governments of South Korea and Japan reached a “final and irreversible” resolution

https://twitter.com/Diplomat_APAC/status/1460411391425265666

to the comfort women issue. Then-Prime Minister Abe Shinzo expressed anew his “most sincere apologies and remorse” and agreed to donate 1 billion yen (10.8 billion won at the time) from the government budget to support the victims. The Reconciliation and Healing Foundation was

established, and the donation was paid to 34 of the 45 former comfort women who were alive at the time.
In 2017, the Moon Jae-in administration effectively abandoned this agreement made by the Park Geun-hye administration, citing the fact that the wishes of the former comfort

[FYI]Some claim that these dead bodies are of #ComfortWomen that were massacred by Imperial Japanese soldiers, but please be informed that the official gazette of the Philippines actually says that this photo is a photo that comes from the Philippine–American War in 1899🐰

[FYI]Interesting that even a TV show in S.Korea tells that these photos are actually nothing to do with #Unit731, many of which come from #ManchurianPlague in 1910 or come from Jinan incident that Chinese soldiers massacred Japanese civilians in 1928🙄

Some claim that these women are the victims of #SexSlaves by Imperial Japanese Army, but this photo actually is of Jewish women who are forced to wait in a line before their execution by Nazi Germany, which is nothing to do with Japan or #ComfortWomen🐰

私たち西洋人は奇妙な「物語」を受け入れてきました。1930年代と1940年代の日本軍は
慰安所と呼ばれるレイプキャンプに、主に韓国の10代の少女20万人を強制的に徴用した
誰かがその話に疑問を抱いた場合、私たちはその人を「拒否者」と一色単にラベル付けしてきた

③これは奇妙な現象です。強制的に徴用されたと主張する慰安婦はごくわずかであり、
日本に対する賠償運動が始まる前に、彼女らの何人かは前言を翻した。
極左派系の人々は養老院を運営し、彼女らを入所させ監視し、違ったことを言う女性を非難した。

Rebuttal to #CarterEckert #AndrewGordon statement on #MarkRamseyer 's #Comfortwomen article.
dataverse.harvard.edu/dataset.xhtml?…

1️⃣Since legally speaking Koreans were treated equally as Japanese, one may describe Korean Comfort women by citing the contracts with Japanese Comfort women'sign.

Some Japanese Comfort women served higher class soldiers compared to Korean Comfort women, but that is about their skills and their legal status was the same.

Also note that Japanese name sign doesn't necessarily mean Japanese signed it, since some Koreans had Japanese names.

2️⃣The statement pointed out one of sources in his paper was about not Comfortwomen 慰安婦 but 酌婦 Shakufu.
But in a diary of Comfort woman station employee below, he made no difference in using these names to describe its entity.

WTF!? Footage of Lee Yong-soo filmed in 1992 is now found, in which she testified that she became #ComfortWoman just because she followed a man who gave her a dress and shoes, NOT because she was tricked or abducted by force by Imperial Japanese Army??🙄
mediawatch.kr/news/article.h…

Here is the footage filmed on Aug 15th, 1992 at KBS. That seems a little bit ironic that the announcer reconfirmed that she became #ComfortWoman NOT because she was abducted by force by Imperial Japanese Army, but she just followed a man by her own will🐰

I want you to remember that Lee Yong-soo has once revealed when she was having infighting with the Korean Council that #ComfortWomen are not #SexSlaves, and the term "sex slave" is used for the women because they wanted to draw more attention from the US🙄

@RWPUSA You are MISLEADING people!!🤬
I read only Japanese translation ,but

1️⃣That's NOT about #Comfortwomen at, all, but about just individuals who work for business men!

2️⃣10years girl only worked as a MAID, not sex! she was happy at host family

3️⃣That's quote part from novelist.

@RWPUSA I think you own us to show, which part did you mean that?

Cuz your tweet, anybody reads it, gets the impression that 10 years old girl was told to have sex with Japanese military as a Comfort women, which is totally not the case here!🤬

Is this how a lie about CW spreaded?🤬

If you look into the subject of #ComfortWomen you'll find victims who were kidnapped minors, others deceived yet others previously in prostitution knowing they'd be entering a brothel. This doesnt make the latter group immune to the extreme violence & exploitation that occurred.

https://twitter.com/heinzsight2020/status/1358810725674717185

On the one hand definitive victims of military sexual slavery are being labelled "sex workers" on the other hand the harmful myth is propagated that such brutal military brothels didnt particularly harm women who were "experienced hardened sex workers". That is dehumanizing.

The exact same dynamics play out in modern prostitution: Those groups are all in the modern brothels next to each other and all subjected to the same brutal market forces, at risk due to the presence of organized crime and facing danger and abuse by the same men who pay for it.

🇯🇵Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary Kato expressed “regret” that a #comfortwomen statue representing the plight of Asian women who were sexually enslaved during WWII has been erected in 🇩🇪Berlin. Secretary Kato said that GoJ will work in every way possible to remove the statue.

https://twitter.com/tkatsumi06j/status/1310820352075816961

According to Kyodo, top GoJ spokesman said it was “extremely regrettable” that the statue was erected in Berlin’s city-owned property, saying he would “engage with various stakeholders to explain our position towards the removal” of the statue to rectify their global reputation.

Now you would wonder what 'reputation' is there to rectify if they are constantly destroying it themselves. Like how they did it here, way back in
2015, which resulted in severing the 60 years of sister-city relationship with the city of Osaka.

Those Koreans need to remember the fact that over 800,000 Korean men applied to join the Imperial Japanese Army by their own free wills during WW2, that some of the applicants even committed suicide because they failed to be Japanese soldiers🙄#CancelKorea

Those Koreans always blame everything about #ComfortWomen on Japan, but they need to remember that there were actually thousands of Korean women abduction cases done by Koreans. Japan was busy cracking those criminals down to save the women🙄#CancelKorea
archive.is/4aX7W

Remember the fact that the testimony later became one of the sources of "200,000 of Korean girls were forced into #SexSlaves by the Japanese Army" has already turned out to be #FakeNews, that was officially retracted by Asahi Shimbun with apology in 2014🙄

I want you to learn that #JapaneseRisingSun ban campaign as "#JapaneseRisingSun is equivalent to #NaziSwastika for Asian countries" is never a protest that comes naturally out of victims of Japan, but a made-up protest led by S.Koreans on purpose ITFP🐰
news.naver.com/main/read.nhn?…

A Korean proves with sources that a view that "#JapaneseRisingSun is a war crime flag" is a newly made-up view that No Korean has mentioned before. Interesting to see that they didn't see #JapaneseRisingSun even as a symbol of Japanese militarism in 1968🐰
archive.is/cMtcy

We can see that views that "#JapaneseRisingSun is a Nazi Swastika for Asian countries" or "#JapaneseRisingSun is a war crime/war criminal flag" were newly made-up views since around 2012. Even none of S.Koreans had seen the flag as a controversial flag🐰
