"The so-called gcomfort womenh controversy is humiliating, not only to Japan and the Japanese people but also to Korea and the Korean people. If the outrageous accusations against Japan were true, they would show the Japanese people in an extremely bad light. But at the same time, the accusations would also greatly insult the Korean people. For even though there were supposedly some 200,000 Korean girls snatched from their homes, there were no instances of resistance, to say nothing of revolt, in Korea. Would not this make the Korean people look bad? Would we have ever encountered such cowards at any other time in world history?"

False Accusations of Nanking Massacre
Brief Summary
I wonder whether the writer has sufficient evidence to support such invective remarks. No one should make such slanderous remarks without sufficient supporting evidence.
Yes. There were comfort women and comfort stations, as all armies of the world did have. (One example is RAA for US Occupation Army of Japan).
However, there was no forcible recruitment by the Japanese military, police authority, or officials in a way as so viciously accused by finger-pointing Koreans and their American collaborators.
What is the reasonable basis of the accusation?
Baseless accusations without supporting evidences constitute perjury. Perjury is a serious crime in any civil or criminal court!
The U.S. media often describe: gHistorians estimate that as many as 200,000 so-called comfort women were forced into sexual slavery in the Imperial Japanese Armyfs brothels before and during World War Two.h
In fact, the author believes the recurring issue of the Comfort Women Sex Slavery is part of propaganda campaign to defame Japan perpetrated by Koreans. I believe that Comfort Women Sex Slavery is totally groundless and false allegation because of the following reasons:
Mr. Shinsuke Sugiyama, Deputy Minister for Foreign Affairs, clearly stated the same at a public conference of UN CEDAW on Feb. 16, 2016.

Document Source: Japan-Korea: Were Korean Men Cowards during World War II ?
It took 14 years of negotiation before the signing of the 1965 Treaty between Japan and South Korea. During the early years of negotiation, staunch anti-Japan President Syngman Ree presented 8 demands that were to be compensated, for 35 years of Japanfs Annexation of Korea (both North and South Korea). The 8 demands did NOT include anything about the comfort women issue. Syngman Ree was ousted and President Park Chung-hee, father of the former South Korean President Park, later signed the treaty. President Park Chung-hee said nothing about the comfort women either.
Moreover, since the day the comfort women issue first came to light in early 1990s,
not a single evidence (e.g. newspaper articles, notification of abduction or missing family members to the police, parliamentary discussion minutes, personal memoirs, etc.)
that indicates systematic recruitment of such a large number of women and girls has been presented by the Korean Government up to today.
These Japanese/Korean joint efforts to crackdown abduction of girls clearly indicate that the Korean Police during the Annexation Period was not involved in the alleged abduction (round-up, coerced or forced recruitment, etc.) of a large number of girls and young women.
Some Koreans say Japanese Military/Police burnt all pertaining documents.
It is absurd since many of those Korean lawmakers must have survived the war (No B29 bombings were carried out on the Korean Peninsula) and they could reproduce the alleged gtragedyh in their memoirs.
No such claim of mass-abduction was made during the negotiation process, which commenced in 1951, for signing the 1965 bilateral treaty.
This fact clearly shows that the practice of comfort women was considered part of normal way of life in Korea.
These ads appeared in 1944 on the major newspaper gKeijo Shinbunh in Seoul by local private employment agencies.
These ads clearly mean that comfort women were openly recruited in public views and nothing to hide.
The left ad offers the salary pay of 300 yen or more with advance loan payment of up to 3,000 yen.
This is the salary level of a Major or higher ranking soldier, when the salary of female factory workers in Korea was 20 yen/month.
Mun Ok-chu i•¶‹ÊŽìjstated in her biography, gI Was A Comfort Woman of the Burma Shield Divisionh (interviewed by Morikawa Machiko, Nashinoki-sha, Tokyo, 1996) that she delighted in successfully saving 500 yen at the field postal service office; she could buy a small house in her hometown of Taegu i‘åç·jat the cost of 1,000 yen (p.76).
Based on these data, the ad on the left says that
it offers 15 times greater the average salary of female factory workers
with advance loan payment worth about 3 houses and
therefore, after working for 10 months, the comfort girl is free to go home.
How can one call the comfort women system a form of gsexual slaveryh?
Available memoirs and documents indicate that the average income of comfort girls varies, from 250 yen/month
(memoir of a Japanese nurse whose monthly salary was 90 yen) to 1,500 yen/month (US Army Report) or even more
depending on the severity (near battle fronts or rear supply depots), popularity and workload of the individual.
Generally, it was a highly-paid job.
For example, Mun Ok-chu earned 1,400 yen/month in average, while Prime Minister TOJO Hideki could earn 800 yen/month.
She bought a diamond in a market of Rangoon, remitted 5,000 yen to her home, and her savings account at the end of the war amounted to 26,145 yen,
which is worth the money to buy 26 houses in her hometown unless Japan lost the war and subsequent hyperinflation made her passbook a worthless piece of rubbish.
The intention of this statement clearly indicates that the Japanese Military during the Annexation Period was not involved in the alleged abduction (round-up, coerced or forced recruitment, etc.) of a large number of girls and young women.
The report says: gA ecomfort girlf is nothing more than a prostitute or professional camp followers attached to the Japanese Army for the benefit of soldiersc. This report however deals only with the Korean ecomfort girlsf recruited by the Japanese and attached to their Army in Burma.h
The report also says: gThey lived well because their food and material was not heavily rationed and they had plenty of money with which to purchase desired articles. They were able to buy cloth, shoes, cigarettes, and cosmetics to supplement the many gifts given to them by soldiers who had received gcomfort bagsh from home. c While in Burma, they amused themselves by participating in sports events with both officers and men, and attended picnics, entertainments, and social dinners. They had a phonograph and in the towns they were allowed to go shopping.h
Can you call it slavery?
18. All Korean prostitutes that the PoWs have seen in the Pacific were volunteers or had been sold by their parents into prostitution. This is proper in the Korean way of thinking but direct conscription of women by the Japanese would be an outrage that the old and young would not tolerate. Men would rise up in rage, killing Japanese no matter what fate they may suffer.
Since there was no uprising to resist rounding-up of women and girls recorded throughout the Annexation Years, there should have been no direct conscription of women by the Japanese.
Did they just stand back and look on the round-up/forcible recruitment?

For example, written testimony shows that Ms. Lee Yong-soo gives different testimony at different occasions and Ms. Kil Won-ok had gone to Manchuria twice out of her own free will.
It is very unfair and constitutes gross violation of human rights that
NO chance is given to the accused party (Japanese-side) to cross examine the accusing partyfs testimonies,
and accusers continue to assert one-sided opinions all over the world.
Lee Yong-soo changes every time she opens her mouth.

In essence, US and UK mass media spread baseless rumors and one-sided views,
take part in a smear campaign against the nation and people of Japan, and shout gSilence!h in order to deprive the chance for refutation from the accused party.

Of cource, the Army needed to get involved in administration of brothels in the occupied territory, such as providing medical check-ups as the photo below shows, because spread of venereal diseases would cripple the Army's fighting capability. |
All military organizations, from the ancient Roman Army to today's modern U.S. Army, had many brothels nearby their camps because prostitution has been and still is necessary evil. Otherwise there may be rapes in your neighborhood! Porn and prostitution are better than rapes. If you disagree, you should go to a church to become a monk and never come out of it.

This newspaper article reports that when the volunteer military system was first promulgated in Korea in 1938,
over 3,000 applicants rushed to the police stations, which acted as the induction/reception center, just in one week and after examinations and health check-ups, 1,900 applicants were qualified for enlistment. (April 12, 1938, Asahi-Shimbun Osaka, West Korea edition)
Where were those 3,000 applicants while their female compatriots were allegedly dragged away by the Japanese Imperial Force to which they wished to join, or by the police to which they must have submitted their application documents? Even a simpleton can understand that NO government can raise an army force from the place where you are rounding-up women and girls for forced prostitution. |

Conscription was applied to Korea from Sept. 1944. According to the diet meeting minutes dated Nov.14, 2002, the Imperial Japanese Army had at least 240,000 Korean soldiers and civil employees mobilized for war effort.
Should the story of rounding-up 200,000 women and girls for forced sex slavery is true, you would wonder why those Koreans males are joining the same Army doing such atrocity.
In other words, where were you, young Korean men, when your sisters and girl-friends were allegedly being rounded-up by Imperial Japanese forces?
If you sat back and just looked on the scene, you deserve contempt of all men in the world.
Korean people expressed their desire for Conscription Order by holding the Oath of Allegiance Ceremony at the Korean Shrine in Seoul on May, 11, 1942. At peak-time, a little over 240,000 Korean soldiers and civilian employees were enlisted by the Japanese Imperial Army and Navy. |

If the Japanese Imperial Army soldiers were rampaging through the Korean towns or villages for rounding-up of women and girls for "forced sex slavery," do you think those women had shown such support of war ?
Guess who is telling the truth and who is telling a lie.
Therefore, Otherwise, people around the world will one day know the truth and consider South Koreans are shameless liars.
Are you saying that Korean men are sissy weakling cowards
who were standing idly by
while their sisters and girl friends were rounded-up and forced into sex slavery ?!!
For example, former comfort woman Lee Yong-soo (below) tells different story as to the circumstance of getting out of her home every time she testifies. False allegation and perjury are considered the serious crime in any civil or criminal court.
Before you blindly believe anything, investigate!
gA narcissistfs weapon of choice is often verbal --- slander, lies, playing the victim in flipped tales of who was the victim and who was the abuser, gossip, rage, verbal abuse and intentional infliction of emotional pain.
It is a systematic dismantling of another personfs relationships, reputation, emotional, physical and spiritual health, life and very soul.
This is why narcissists are so often called emotional vampires.h

Park Yu-ha, a Sejong University professor, wrote in her book gComfort Women of the Empireh that some Korean women who were taken to comfort stations overseas were volunteers and there were cases of having some comradeship or even romantic relationships with Japanese soldiers. She was sued by the former comfort women of the Sharing House for defaming them and indicted by the local prosecutor. The appeal court in Seoul overturned the lower courtfs acquittal, found her guilty of charges for gdefaming victims of Japanese wartime sexual slavery,h and fined her 10 million won (approx. US$8,876-), on November 5, 2017.
Comfort Women frenzy is out of control to the point that
there is no freedom of expression in South Korea.
These former comfort women often play tear-jerkers and you may feel some sympathy for those "poor old women."
However, due to anti-Japan sentiment prevalent in the South Korean society,
those "poor old women" turned out to be some sort of despotic monsters
against whom nobody can present different opinions on the Comfort Women Issue today.

If the statue is truly the symbol of universal human rights issue as promoters of the statue such as Lillian Sing and Julie Tang of the Comfort Woman Justice Coalition say, where is the comfort women memorial of Korean women who were forced to become comfort women for the United States Army during the Korean War and thereafter? Also where is the memorial addressing the Vietnamese women forced to provide sex services for South Korean troops during the Vietnam War?

Most of these women died during their wartime captivity. This dark history was hidden for decades until the 1990s when the survivors courageously broke their silence. They helped move the world to declare that sexual violence as a strategy of war is a crime against humanity for which governments must be held accountable.

On Sept. 22, 2015, the City Hall of San Francisco was full of arrogant, self-righteous hypocrites.
Korean participants were overjoyed to hear that the Supervisors had passed the legislation calling for building a Comfort Women Memorial in the city, or acquired another weapon to denounce Japan.
When one of the Japanese residents in the city expressed his opinion that former comfort woman Li Yong-soo had made different testimonies at different occasions, Supervisor David Campos called it gan attackh against her and yelled gShame on you!h several times.
Why do Americans lose their cool and ignore the other side of the story when it comes to the comfort women issue, although there is a reason to doubt the authenticity of the testimonies of the former comfort women? It appears guilty verdict is determined from the very beginning and due process of laws such as cross-examination of testimony, chance for refutation, or presumption of innocence is grossly denied for the Japanese. Basically this is a Kangaroo Court and you are saying, gNo one is guilty without hard evidence except for the Japanese.h It is what you call the gRacial Prejudice.h |

Herbert Ziegler, professor of history at University of Hawaii, seems unable to identify the line that exists between freedom of speech and freedom to abuse and defame others.
Among many disagreements the author finds in his writing as quoted by McGraw-Hill Textbook, the following part is particularly outrageous and cannot be overlooked.
gThe Japanese army forcibly recruited, conscripted, and dragooned as many as two hundred thousand womenc..At the end of the war, soldiers massacred large numbers of comfort women to cover up the operation.h He is in essence branding the Japanese race a bunch of rapists and murderers. This is not any sort of academic work but just malicious slander intended to defame the nation and people of Japan. In response to the demands of 19 Japanese historians to provide supporting evidences (16 March, 2015) for the above statement, he has made no reply and still continues to spread the baseless lies. His complete disregard of the truth deserves contempt of all historians. No scholars with any sort of conscience or integrity should take such a cowardly approach.

However, pushing young people into a swamp of lies, distortion, and baseless rumors is is a serious problem. All community leaders should stick to the factual truth of history and avoid racial biases arising out of lobbying of a specific group of population. | |

Diplomatic Compromise Has Nothing to Do with Historical Facts
The author is indignant about and strongly opposed to the 2015 Japan-Korea deal as it is another insult on the nation and people of Japan.
However, the author also believes that PM Abe had to have the deal under the growing U.S. pressure urging Japan to keep the three party (Japan. S.Korea, and the U.S.) security alliance against the threats arising from North Korea and China.
S. Korea has successfully torn off one billion yen during the diplomatic negotiation process.
Vice President Joe Biden said, gI donft negotiate the agreement, but the end result was, because I had a personal relationship with both of them (President Park and Prime Minister Abe) and they trusted me, I could be an interlocutor, that was more like a divorce counselor, putting a marriage back together.h (Aug. 28, the Atlantic) |
The Comfort Women Issue is also a ghit producth Koreans can use in a diplomatic negotiation. As it is an obstacle Japan has to remove for forming a three-party alliance vis-a-vis North Korea and/or China, the more the U.S. puts pressure upon Japan, the more Koreans raise the hurdle for compromise.
The U. S. should stop putting pressure upon Japan in order to keep the three-party security alliance at the expense of Japan. Instead, the U.S. should choose either Japan or South Korea for its economic and/or security partner in the East Asia. We Japanese have our own limits of patience and we are already sick of the ungrateful, anti-Japan religious cult nation.
S. Korean football fans formed these letters at 2002 FIFA World Cup. Quite like we have Christianity, Islamism, and Buddhism in the world, S. Korea is an anti-Japan religious cult nation. |
