Malala and the Article 9th

Considering the 2014 Nobel Peace Prize for Ms.Malala, I am sure that keeping the world peace costs much.

In contrast, the Article 9th, disarmament of Japan, which was nominated for the 2014 Peace Prize, is the outcome of the dealing with the US; Then the US disarmed Japan, instead promised Japan to protect its land and the Emperor system.

This is, what is called, the Yoshida Doctorine, and Japan could become the 3rd largest country in the world thereafter without paying any cost of security.

Some Japanese claim that the Article 9th is worth the prize, but I doubt them and I would say to such people that there are the dead in the battlefields under the Article 9th.

マララさんの受賞から思うのは、「平和には大きな代償 (The Price of Peace) が必要だ」ということ。日本はその代償を免れる条件として、日本は「九条」を受け入れた。これがいわゆる、吉田ドクトリン(Yoshida Doctorine)というもので、「九条」は「日本の再軍備」を警戒したアメリカとの取引であり、日本は天皇制を維持すること、安保条約で守ってもらう ことを前提にこれを飲んだ。お陰で日本は超大国になれた。「九条」はいわばアメリカに『武装はしないから、代わりに安保で守ってね』という「取引」に過ぎ なかった。
