Nippon Kaigi, or the so-called Japan Conference, is the country's most influential conservative lobby. Its members deny Japanese wartime atrocities and want to create a new nation centered on the Imperial family. Now they oppose plans to allow Emperor Akihito to abdicate, possibly in early 2018.

Japan is a beautiful country and has an amazing culture, no one denies that. But imperialist Japan did many outrageous things to say the least during the war, and denying that would be ignorant. It's not like the world is treating Japan like post WWI Germany, so I do not understand where the nationalist sentiment is coming from

    Malinkadink Well, when civilians commit ritual suicide during surrender you’re sure to lose a lot more lives, not to mention the population was starving. Soldiers in Okinawa used the women and children as shields from soldiers as well. They even enslaved Koreans, Chinese and Filipino women as sex slaves during the war. Seems pretty bad to me. I get Japan was only doing what Europe and America were doing with colonization and expansion in the past but they were a part of the League of Nations at that time which forbid that practice. You commit an act of violence against a country you can’t be surprised when they retaliate in such a fashion in war.

    Malinkadink Do you think Japan wouldn't have hesitated for a second to do the same to us if they were smart enough to come up with the atom bomb themselves? They lost the race and paid for it. I feel pity for the innocent people who died but they would have probably killed even more given the chance. I wish it hadn't happened, but they wouldn't refuse. The Japanese resisted furiously to give up when we warned them. They kept killing our citizens so we had to take extreme measures. You look out for your own. In the end, the more dominant country won. I love Japanese culture, but to deny something like Nanking is just embarrasing. It was useless loss of life because they had the power even though they gave up. The Japanese wouldn't even respond after the FIRST nuke. It took a second to make them stop. It is their own stubbornness that did it to them.

    The people who denies those things aren't major in Japan. Well, we do deny some of the things we think it's wrong, though. But that kind of people is more smaller in numbers. Nanjing = some people STILL denies it, although even the Japanese Commander heard of the news and cried, except that China is raising the numbers every year Comfort women = Even I want to completely deny it, as even the US army's research those days say that they were prostitutes. Death March(Bataan) = Who denies it is extremists. Most of us doesn't deny it. It was one of the Japan's worst mistake, failing to prepare enough supplies for the POW, thinking that the POWs would be able to take on the march(cuz Japanese soldiers already got used to it), etc. Also, Korea is starting to say something about Drafting workers. They say that Japan abused them by burning them alive after they did the work. Funny thing is that Japan doesn't have torturing techniques on burning people alive, but it exists in China and Korea.

You say Japanese and Germans committed too many atrocities in WWII for their descendants to ever feel pride. How about all millions of people killed horribly by the Brits, French, Turks, Chinese, Russians? If what you say is true no-one would be allowed to feel pride. I don't understand why are Germans and Japanese especially singled out. I believe they did no worse than other humans throughout history and they should equally be proud of their ancestors as any other person anywhere else in the world.

Rome decimated entire populations and made up fictive stories about celts and Carthage. As to sway public opinion. What happened in WW2 is no different than what happened in any war of that magnitude all over history. Yet the Axis were made into the boogieman. The true backlash on Germany and Japan and the rise of far rightwing ideology is exactly that, what is caused by pointing the finger at these people by the allied powers.

    It is an organization created by gathering people from all walks of life, including politics, economy, culture, religion, and art. Its goal is to deny the current post-war system represented by the Peace Constitution and restore the Japanese system and ideas before and during the war. To this end, the constitutional amendment, revisionist history education, and preservation and revival of legislation during the imperial period are being promoted, and much of them have already been realized. Tracking down all the right-wing activities and controversies in Japan, there is always this organization at its peak. If the center point of the right wing of the Japanese religious community is the Shinsa headquarters, there is this Japanese conference in the political-social world.About 270 of the Japanese lawmakers are said to be members of the Japanese Parliament. This is 40% of the number of the Japanese House of Representatives. In addition, it formed a meeting of members of the National Assembly of Japan under the National Assembly Federation and currently includes the Constitutional Democratic Party, the National Democratic Party, and the Japanese Restoration Party, and more than 95 percent are the Liberal Democratic Party. In addition, local councilors and businessmen's associations were formed, and there is also a think tank called the Japan Policy Research Center. As of the 4th Abe Cabinet, including former Prime Minister Shinjo Abe, the founding member of the Japanese Conference, 15 out of a total of 20 ministers were members of the Japanese Conference. Taro Aso, who often speaks far-right, is a member of the Japanese Parliament, and Fumio Kishida, chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party, and Yuriko Koike, governor of Tokyo. Hideaki Kase, Japan's representative right-wing officer and son of Toshikazu Kase described above, also served as a representative member of the organization. Even Shigeru Ishiba, known as a relative moderate in the LDP in Korea, belongs to the Japanese Conference, and there are surprisingly quite a few members of the LDP, other than Ishiba. As it is a large-scale organization with 40,000 official members alone, it wields huge funds. It is said that simple annual membership income alone earns about 400 million yen a year, and donations and sponsorships from partner organizations are also considerable. In the mid-1970s, before the Japanese Conference was launched in earnest, the Meiji Shrine was so powerful that it sprayed hundreds of millions of won without any conditions to succeed in the Wonho legislation movement

    Japan's "weakness" is a myth put out by the imperialists. Japan has had a great Air Force for 40+ years. It's full of F4 phantoms, F15s and now F35s. Japan's huge helicopter transport vessels are actually carriers that the VTOL F35 can operate from already. Japan had the most powerful armed forces in Asia since about 10 years ago when China finally surpassed them. Japan after it's economic bubble burst in the 1990s is in the same situation like they were in the 1930s. They want to expand to get more markets for Japan but their pacifist constitution is stopping them. The conservatives' stopping the emperor from retiring is just like in past when the militarists bossed the emperor around. That is about to repeat their history.

    In a strange position of being a fan of Japanese Culture, as well as a generation that still has quite a few survivors of that era (albeit children then), of which many lost their loved ones. To be sure, I lost three great-grandparents on my mother's side, one water-boarded, the other two disappearing and never returning, in a campaign known as 'Sook Ching' where I come from (Singapore). As a nation, we keep strong ties economically and so forth with Japan, as we do other nations, but we never forgot the pain that the regime that is now history caused us. We can only hope that while there are those that condemn liberalism, sometimes rightly so, in a socially conservative nation as Japan is, we cannot simply rush into the opposite direction of ultra-nationalism. To me, Patriotism means loving one's country, accepting all its strengths, and also its flaws and mistakes, while striving to make it better.

We would not need the military like USA by adding more debt with this wabbling economy. second, spending to the defense = better country? Give me a break.

    There are 100s of documentaries about Unit 731, where live experiments, often without anaesthetic, were conducted on Chinese soldiers and civilians. These include dozens of interviews of the Japanese involved at the time. Some of the interviewees admit unashamedly that the horrors happened (if you understand Japanese you will understand that these interviews were not faked). Many admit what happened but feel ashamed, saying they were terrified but acting under orders. And a small number deny that they ever happened. It's hard to believe the deniers, given the evidence from their own colleagues. But it isn't hard to believe why they would lie. Nearly all this generation is now dead and people who never experienced the war, such as most of Nippon Kaigi, want to rewrite history as if they know what they are talking about. Japan could so easily be a beautiful country if it would only be honest, as Germany is and is admired worldwide for this. Admit that horrific things happen in war. (No need to apologise if you were not involved yourself, just simply face up to reality.) And then you can move on and people will respect you and your beautiful country. But until there is honesty, can there really be beauty?

Japanese never really forgot the bitterness of defeat and that they are the only country suffered nuclear bombs, it’s not hard to convince any Japanese that Japan is the victim rather than inflictor.!For now they remain pacifist most because they are still not strong enough to oppose US, once they are stronger, they may surprisingly show their hostility toward US not to mention China and Korea.

It would probably be the equivalent of germany denying the holocaust, or the united states denying the drop of the atomic bomb over japanese civilians and holding japanese american internment camps during the war.

Japan was highly nationalistic during WWII and they invaded China, Vietnam, the Philippines, Singapore, and many other countries, committing brutal atrocities along the way.

For example, during the Tang Dynasty of China, they had everything that Japan had minus the feudalism. Geisha, bonsai, katana-styled weaponry, paintings, poetry and kimonos have flourished there and been a huge source of influence for Japan. It's a running joke that if somebody wanted to see Tang Dynasty China now, Japan would be their best bet ever since the Cultural Revolution damaged China's cultural heritage and legacy.

    Restoring Japan's ability to organize a military is necessary in an age of global uncertainty, but more importantly is a right every nation holds. It is also valid to promote and protect one's culture. Japan has always had an issue with recognizing history as it happened and accepting the atrocities carried out by the Imperial Japanese Army. Shinzo Abe is a moderate within Nippon Kaigi saying such things as: “We have the responsibility to inherit the past, in all humbleness, and pass it on to the future.” while also saying: “we must not let our children, grandchildren, and even further generations to come, who have nothing to do with that war, be predestined to apologize.” It is unlikely, however, that Nippon Kaigi will moderate itself after Shinzo leaves office.

But a bit later, he says "What our ancestors did in Spain and Germany was righteous, they been there to help Spanish and German, and the massacre was exaggerated" in Panthéon. If you look at the Japanese congress, you can find numerous grandson of war criminals serves as congressmen. Approval rating got higher just after they said "Our ancestors invaded Asia to help Asian. It was a righteous thing" in the temple devoted to war criminals. Sometimes Japanese Prime minister said, "We have bad feelings about what happened." on August 15th, V-J day just because the US government pushed him to do so.

If they want to play a bigger role in international politics they need to show they're an modern democracy with a dedication to peace and freedom. They need to take example from Germany. Germany instead of denying their past has done all that could be expected of it to make amends. That's the mature thing to do, and in my opinion the Germans can be proud of that. Japanese pride is admirable, but the denial of warcrimes by a part of it's population is a shamefull display indeed.

Otherwise I don't think it's wrong to consider the modern day Japanese complicit in the war crimes of their ancestors, even if only to a very minor degree. Same goes for the Turks btw. And no, germany is not denying it's past. If you speak to modern day germans about the subject you will far more often find them feeling ashamed of their past. Anger toward the Nazi's as if they were a small group is very uncommon. They fully understand Hitler was elected.

    It is an organization created by gathering people from all walks of life, including politics, economy, culture, religion, and art. Its goal is to deny the current post-war system represented by the Peace Constitution and restore the Japanese system and ideas before and during the war. To this end, the constitutional amendment, revisionist history education, and preservation and revival of legislation during the imperial period are being promoted, and much of them have already been realized. Tracking down all the right-wing activities and controversies in Japan, there is always this organization at its peak. If the center point of the right wing of the Japanese religious community is the Shinsa headquarters, there is this Japanese conference in the political-social world.About 270 of the Japanese lawmakers are said to be members of the Japanese Parliament. This is 40% of the number of the Japanese House of Representatives. In addition, it formed a meeting of members of the National Assembly of Japan under the National Assembly Federation and currently includes the Constitutional Democratic Party, the National Democratic Party, and the Japanese Restoration Party, and more than 95 percent are the Liberal Democratic Party. In addition, local councilors and businessmen's associations were formed, and there is also a think tank called the Japan Policy Research Center. As of the 4th Abe Cabinet, including former Prime Minister Shinjo Abe, the founding member of the Japanese Conference, 15 out of a total of 20 ministers were members of the Japanese Conference. Taro Aso, who often speaks far-right, is a member of the Japanese Parliament, and Fumio Kishida, chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party, and Yuriko Koike, governor of Tokyo. Hideaki Kase, Japan's representative right-wing officer and son of Toshikazu Kase described above, also served as a representative member of the organization. Even Shigeru Ishiba, known as a relative moderate in the LDP in Korea, belongs to the Japanese Conference, and there are surprisingly quite a few members of the LDP, other than Ishiba. As it is a large-scale organization with 40,000 official members alone, it wields huge funds. It is said that simple annual membership income alone earns about 400 million yen a year, and donations and sponsorships from partner organizations are also considerable. In the mid-1970s, before the Japanese Conference was launched in earnest, the Meiji Shrine was so powerful that it sprayed hundreds of millions of won without any conditions to succeed in the Wonho legislation movement

For if the leaders had been condemned, then logically their highest lord, in whose name they acted, would have had to receive the same punishment. However, in order to take Japan to the side of the US in the burgeoning Cold War, the US leadership rejected it and put the criminal prosecution in the hands of the Japanese. Unfortunately, they have all pardoned very quickly. Incidentally, the Nanking massacre is very well documented by diplomats. At that time there was the message of the Third Reich. The leading German diplomat wrote his superiors in Germany and described the conditions and Greul. He also set up a protection zone in which tens of thousands of Chinese sought refuge.

    It is an organization created by gathering people from all walks of life, including politics, economy, culture, religion, and art. Its goal is to deny the current post-war system represented by the Peace Constitution and restore the Japanese system and ideas before and during the war. To this end, the constitutional amendment, revisionist history education, and preservation and revival of legislation during the imperial period are being promoted, and much of them have already been realized. Tracking down all the right-wing activities and controversies in Japan, there is always this organization at its peak. If the center point of the right wing of the Japanese religious community is the Shinsa headquarters, there is this Japanese conference in the political-social world.About 270 of the Japanese lawmakers are said to be members of the Japanese Parliament. This is 40% of the number of the Japanese House of Representatives. In addition, it formed a meeting of members of the National Assembly of Japan under the National Assembly Federation and currently includes the Constitutional Democratic Party, the National Democratic Party, and the Japanese Restoration Party, and more than 95 percent are the Liberal Democratic Party. In addition, local councilors and businessmen's associations were formed, and there is also a think tank called the Japan Policy Research Center. As of the 4th Abe Cabinet, including former Prime Minister Shinjo Abe, the founding member of the Japanese Conference, 15 out of a total of 20 ministers were members of the Japanese Conference. Taro Aso, who often speaks far-right, is a member of the Japanese Parliament, and Fumio Kishida, chairman of the Liberal Democratic Party, and Yuriko Koike, governor of Tokyo. Hideaki Kase, Japan's representative right-wing officer and son of Toshikazu Kase described above, also served as a representative member of the organization. Even Shigeru Ishiba, known as a relative moderate in the LDP in Korea, belongs to the Japanese Conference, and there are surprisingly quite a few members of the LDP, other than Ishiba. As it is a large-scale organization with 40,000 official members alone, it wields huge funds. It is said that simple annual membership income alone earns about 400 million yen a year, and donations and sponsorships from partner organizations are also considerable. In the mid-1970s, before the Japanese Conference was launched in earnest, the Meiji Shrine was so powerful that it sprayed hundreds of millions of won without any conditions to succeed in the Wonho legislation movement

After ww2 many Japanese troops in Indonesia they don't want to back to their country. Instead, they help Indonesian created their own forces and give some assistance to Indonesian leader to declared Indonesia as Independence nation. Those Japanese troops even fought together along with Indonesian against the dutch millitary agressions. Japan also one of the first foreign country who put their money in Indonesia, thousands of Japanese corporation already operated bring millions of jobs to Indonesian. That's why most of Indonesian has a positive view towards Japan, eventhough thousands Indonesian men died as slave worker in 40's and many women tortured or get raped by Japan army.

Tracking down all the right-wing activities and controversies in Japan, there is always this organization at its peak. If the center point of the right wing of the Japanese religious community is the Shinsa headquarters, there is this Japanese conference in the political-social world. As the most financially and politically influential organizations among the major right-wing groups in Japan were created in cooperation, they have a strong influence on Japanese society and have numerous front organizations in the lower part, so their scale is very vast. Close ties with Japan's Abe administration and the LDP are suspected. Foreign media often evaluate this organization as a highly conservative nationalist lobby. It is a private organization founded on May 30, 1997 by integrating two organizations: the National Assembly to Protect Japan and the Society to Protect Japan. As of August 2017, the chairman was Takubo Datae. As of 2017, the number of members was about 40,000, and it has its headquarters in all 47 prefectures in Japan and branches in 241 municipalities. Brazil also has an overseas branch. About 270 of the Japanese lawmakers are said to be members of the Japanese Parliament. This is 40% of the number of the Japanese House of Representatives. In addition, it formed a meeting of members of the National Assembly of Japan under the National Assembly Federation and currently includes the Constitutional Democratic Party, the National Democratic Party, and the Japanese Restoration Party, and more than 95 percent are the Liberal Democratic Party. In addition, local councilors and businessmen's associations were formed, and there is also a think tank called the Japan Policy Research Center.
