Japan Will Perish in Flames of Neo-Militarism: KCNA CommentaryPyongyang, August 24 (KCNA) – Dignitaries again flocked to the Yasukuni Shrine on the day of Japan's defeat.
High-ranking politicians of Japan, buoyed up by the wild ambition for continental aggression, frequent there on different occasions every year. It is the fact well known to the world already that what they seek is just to secure a spiritual pillar for proactively supporting their militaristic policy.
But this time the gravity of the issue is further highlighted by the group visit assuming so unusual colours.
Prime Minister Takaichi, who had made an offering to the shrine on August 15, made a bow toward the shrine, on her way to the national mourning ceremony for the war dead. She was not far from the shrine at that time.
It is something rare to be seen that the incumbent prime minister made a bow toward the shrine on the day of defeat.
As foreign media commented it as "remote tribute" and "a quarter of a step forward to pay visiting tribute," it is not difficult to see Takaichi's militaristic ambition that has gone to extremes.
Since its emergence, the Takaichi regime has pursued such extremely dangerous military policy, never to be seen in the preceding regimes, as deployment of preemptive attack weapons indispensable for launching reinvasion, modification of the "Three Principles on Transfer of Defence Equipment and Technology" and its guidelines and attempted revision of the "Three Non-Nuclear Principles" for arming itself with nuclear weapons.
