Japan denies "comfort women" during World War Two once again, this is not right.  email this discussion to a friend?

No countries are perfect, I do not know why japan refuses to admit the "comfort women" (forced sex slaves) that were provided to their occupying military forces during the second world war. These womwn were from philippines and korea and maybe other places. Many are still around, their whole lives being ruined, not just during the wartime.
Of course the whole thing is sad and there are many crimes of war, but the innocent young girls of the time should have at least got the respect of the offenders to admit this shameful past.

Japan has a problem dealing with the modern militaristic Tokagawa. Honour demands that the modern Japanese must either whitewash their past or appologise for it. The fact that the Japanese language has no term for appology, and Japanese culture no room for the concept, the only avenue open to them is to deny as much of the past that they can get away with
blessed be

How can they have a choice for either whitewash the past or apologize? if there is no such thing as apology... that makes no sense.

It does not matter if their culture has contradictions, the modern world calls for a recognition, whether it appears to be an apology or not, they need to eat crow sometimes.

after all, they dont walk around in Kimonos and sandals, carry swords and ride horses do they?... things change.

dont misunderstand either, the japanese are wonderful folks, its those poor women that must be in a state of shock when that government denies a past, its all so tragic.

unfortunately, although it may make no sense to you and I, it remains the situation.
