靖国参拝 Visiting Yasukuni

終戦記念日になると靖国参拝である。

戦争で命を落とされた方を参るのは当然だとしても、何故靖国か。

兵士は皆靖国で会おうと言って死んだというが、それは兵士の本心だったのか。天皇陛下のために本当に死んだのか。

私は靖国神社と天皇は日本人をマイン ドコントロールするための装置として機能したと考えている。天皇と日本人を守るための自衛戦争だという人がいるが、なぜ68回もの戦略爆撃に日本人はさら されたのか。もっと早く降参すべきだったが、できなかった。これをどう説明するのか。

明らかに結果を考えない戦争指導者の怠慢と無責任だと言えないか。特に政治家はなぜ靖国を参り、何を思うのかを語る義務と責任がある。靖国へ参る彼らに、行為の結果を考えない戦争指導者の怠慢と無責任を見る気がする。

We can see people visiting Yasukuni Shrine every summer. 


It is so natural to pay respect to the war dead, but why Yasukuni Shrine? 

The soldiers said on the battle field, 'Shall we meet in Yasukuni?', and were killed, but was it really in their mind? Was it for the Emperor that they died? 

I think that Yasukuni and the Emperor were used to work for controlling Japanese minds. Some say that the aim of the war was to defend the Emperor and the Japanese, but if so, how should the fact that Japan suffered from 68th times of strategic bombing be explained? Japan should have surrendered earlier, but it didn't. How is it explained? 

It can be said that it is kind of laziness and no sense of responsibility of the war leaders who didn't consider the ends that caused the suffering. I don't care whether to visit Yasukuni, but the congress people should have some responsibility to explain why they visit. I feel many of them as lazy and irresponsible as the once war leaders who had no idea of the result of their acts.
