Only the rightwing elites of Japan can understand Japanese history. The Yomiuri Shimbun has published another editorial denying that the Imperial Japanese Army was responsible for forcing women into sexual slavery when it invaded and occupied China in WW2. They sound just like Abe.
See Pro-Con: Should Japan apologize to "comfort women"? No.
Why does the US media insist on the Japanese phrase "comfort women" instead of sex slaves?
Do we also refer to the fire bombing of Tokyo as "overheating?" (Maybe we should just deny it happened. Firebombs? What firebombs? The US gov't and military were directly involved, it was oil interests.)
