The following is from Masayuki Takayama's serialized column that marks the end of Weekly Shincho, released 2023/6/8.
A long time ago, an elderly female professor of the Royal Ballet School of Monaco, who prima ballerinas around the world highly respect, visited Japan.
She spoke at that time about the significance of an artist's existence.
She said, "Artists are important because they are the only ones who can shed light on hidden, concealed truths and express them."
No one would dispute her words.
It is no exaggeration to say that Masayuki Takayama is not only the one and only journalist in the postwar world but also the one and only artist in the postwar world.
On the other hand, many of those who call themselves artists, such as Oe, Murakami, and Hirano, do not even deserve the artist's name.
They have only expressed the lies the Asahi Shimbun and others created rather than shedding light on hidden truths and telling them.
Their existence is not limited to Japan but is the same in other countries worldwide.
In other words, only a minimal number of actual artists exist.
This paper also keenly proves that I am right when I say that no one in the world today deserves the Nobel Prize in Literature more than Masayuki Takayama.
It is a must-read not only for the Japanese people but for people worldwide.
NHK and others have yet to inform the Japanese people of the historical facts he reveals in this paper.
On the contrary, NHK reports that the Japanese military committed atrocities and that the Japanese army is evil in its special programs.
It is no exaggeration to say that the people who control NHK's news department, with their masochistic view of history as brainwashed by GHQ, are governed by the propaganda of China and South Korea, the only two anti-Japanese nations in the world.
Both countries are totalitarian states that continue to practice Nazism in the name of anti-Japanese education, and it is no exaggeration to say that they are nothing but propaganda.
The same goes for NTV, TBS, TV Asahi, Fuji TV, and TV Tokyo.
As I mentioned the other day, they have sympathy for the Constitutional Communist Party, which only has the support of around 5% of the Japanese people.
It is what has brought Japan to a standstill.
The manner of their reporting is one of the major causes of Mr. Abe's assassination.
Their stupidity has blindsided the foolish Kishida into passing the LGBT bill, which is the height of folly.
It is no exaggeration to say that they and the other politicians who support the LGBT bill are either agents or puppets of Klaus Schwab, Kissinger, and Xi Jinping.
Of all things, they are complicit in the division and destruction of Japan.
This country has boasted the highest intellectual, educational, cultural, etiquette, and behavioral standards since the dawn of history.
Their sins are irredeemable because of their low level of intelligence.
Japanese who detained and used
The Russians were still sane during the imperial period.
During the Russo-Japanese War, when they found wounded Japanese soldiers, they treated them well and sent them to the Medvedev camps.
There were 1,592 Japanese prisoners of war.
After their repatriation, they reported that they were treated well.
Forty years have passed since then.
Communized under Stalin, they had ceased to be human beings.
They waited for Japan's defeat and invaded Manchuria, looting and raping all over.
They promised "speedy demobilization" in the Potsdam Declaration, but 600,000 generals were sent to Siberia to work as enslaved people.
Stalin also attempted to occupy Hokkaido but was beaten to death by the Japanese on the island of Shushu.
In revenge, he torpedoed a salvage vessel off the coast of Rumoi, killing 1,708 Japanese.
Putin will not return the four northern islands he gained from this criminal act.
He will not apologize for the sinking of the salvage vessel.
Once human beings become communists, they all lose their morals and decency.
What about the Chinese?
During the Sino-Japanese War, the Japanese had the opportunity to meet the Chinese before they became communists.
In Japan, we thought that since the time of Ogyu Sorai, Shina was a country of virtue, and Shina people were the students of Confucius, but we were mistaken.
They were even worse, more brutal, and vile than the communist Russians.
The Japanese were surprised by the behavior of the enemy cruiser Jejuan during the Battle of Teshima in the early stages of the war.
When this ship was hit, it raised its white flag and stopped.
When a Japanese ship went to capture her, she suddenly released a torpedo and fled.
The Chinese could not distinguish between cheating and resourcefulness.
Even more surprising was the exchange of prisoners of war after the war ended.
The Japanese had released nearly 10,000 soldiers under oath during the war, and in addition, they repatriated 1,644 who had been treated in hospitals in the interior.
In contrast, China returned only one person.
Japanese POWs, of which there must have been several hundred, were actually killed on the spot by "barbaric and poisonous acts" (Aritomo Yamagata) in which their ears and noses were shaved off, eyeballs were gouged out, and limbs were cut off.
It was the appearance of the Shina people before they turned red.
Half a century later.
In the Second Shanghai Incident, the Japanese army faced the Shina army again, but half of them had become communists.
They had a sponsor.
In the United States, which had designated China as its final "Manifest Destiny," Secretary of State Stimson told Chiang Kai-shek, "I will give Manchuria and Mongolia to the Chinese. In return, drag Japan into the war.
Thus began terrorizing Japanese residents in Japan, and 250 people were slaughtered in Tongzhou.
Next, Chiang had his 60,000-strong army attack the Japanese concession in Shanghai and attempt to kill all the Japanese.
It was the beginning of the Second Sino-Japanese War.
Japan had just poured most of its forces into mainland China when the U.S. provoked it.
Japan was forced into a two-front war with the enemy.
When Japan ran out of strength, the Red Russians began kidnapping Japanese POWs in the north, and on the Chinese continent, the Chinese and the Red Russians began fighting over Japanese POWs.
They did not even read the Potsdam Declaration.
In Shanxi Province, Yan Xishan put an entire 2,600-strong Japanese army under his command to fight against Mao's Red Chinese.
Five hundred fifty were killed in battle here.
They were making POWs fight. It was an atrocity that not even Spartacus would have done.
The Eight Roads Army was even worse.
They conscripted civilian men and women from pioneer villages and sent them to the battlefield as Transportation soldiers and nurses while carrying out the usual looting.
Even after Chiang Kai-shek's army was defeated, there was no demobilization.
The Korean War, which began five years after the war's end, also mobilized 30,000 people, half of whom died of war-related illnesses.
The Red Chinese captured pilots, mechanics, and others in the Kwantung Army and engineers from the Manchurian Railway Company. They forced them to work on the establishment of the Chinese Air Force and the construction of railroads.
One Japanese engineer recruited to manage a coal mine was executed without trial after being accused of running errands for his Chinese boss.
On National Day in October 1954, Zhou Enlai referred to the tens of thousands of Japanese who were forced to remain in China as "Japanese who detained and used" and said, "They cooperated in the construction of New China of their own free will.
Red Chinese are not afraid to tell even the most blatant lies.
