Right-wingers use pretenses to remilitarize Japan

Pretending to be "victims" is an art that Japanese militarists and right-wingers mastered long ago and still manipulate repeatedly to veil their aggressiveness.

While people across the world are celebrating the 70th anniversary of the defeat of fascism, Japanese right-wingers say, thanks to the atomic bombs, they are the real victims of World War II, without mentioning "why" .

On Dec 7, 1941, Japanese militarists used the pretext of being under threat from the US military in the Pacific to launch the sudden attack on Pearl Harbor even though America was playing neutral in WWII until then.
