KYOTO, Japan — The demonstrators appeared one day in December, just as children at an elementary school for ethnic Koreans were cleaning up for lunch. The group of about a dozen Japanese men gathered in front of the school gate, using bullhorns to call the students cockroaches and Korean spies.
Inside, the panicked students and teachers huddled in their classrooms, singing loudly to drown out the insults, as parents and eventually police officers blocked the protesters’ entry.
The December episode was the first in a series of demonstrations at the Kyoto No. 1 Korean Elementary School that shocked conflict-adverse Japan, where even political protesters on the radical fringes are expected to avoid embroiling regular citizens, much less children. Responding to public outrage, the police arrested four of the protesters this month on charges of damaging the school’s reputation.
More significantly, the protests also signaled the emergence here of a new type of ultranationalist group. The groups are openly anti-foreign in their message, and unafraid to win attention by holding unruly street demonstrations.
Since first appearing last year, their protests have been directed at not only Japan’s half million ethnic Koreans, but also Chinese and other Asian workers, Christian churchgoers and even Westerners in Halloween costumes. In the latter case, a few dozen angrily shouting demonstrators followed around revelers waving placards that said, “This is not a white country.”
But in a sign of changing times here, Mr. Suzuki also admitted that the Net right has grown at a time when traditional ultranationalist groups like his own have been shrinking. Mr. Suzuki said the number of old-style rightists has fallen to about 12,000, one-tenth the size of their 1960s’ peak.
No such estimates exist for the size of the new Net right. However, the largest group appears to be the cumbersomely named Citizens Group That Will Not Forgive Special Privileges for Koreans in Japan, known here by its Japanese abbreviation, the Zaitokukai, which has some 9,000 members.
The Zaitokukai gained notoriety last year when it staged noisy protests at the home and junior high school of a 14-year-old Philippine girl, demanding her deportation after her parents were sent home for overstaying their visas. More recently, the Zaitokukai picketed theaters showing “The Cove,” an American documentary about dolphin hunting here that rightists branded as anti-Japanese.
In interviews, members of the Zaitokukai and other groups blamed foreigners, particularly Koreans and Chinese, for Japan’s growing crime and unemployment, and also for what they called their nation’s lack of respect on the world stage. Many seemed to embrace conspiracy theories taken from the Internet that China or the United States were plotting to undermine Japan.
Protesting out in front of an elementary school is fucked up. Police opening fire on those fucktard protesters is ok with me.

Israel to declare Gaza 'hostile'
**Israel is to declare the Gaza Strip a "hostile entity" in response to the continued rocket fire from Palestinian militants, Israeli officials say.
The decision could lead to Israel cutting off vital water, fuel or electricity supplies to the territory.
Palestinians say such a move would constitute collective punishment.
Public pressure for retaliation has grown since an incident two weeks ago in which a rocket landed in an Israeli army base, injuring some 69 soldiers.
Palestinian militant groups say the rocket fire is a response to Israeli military action in Gaza and the West Bank.
International law
News for you Israel: Turning off their water and electricity won't stop the rocket attacks. How you convinced the US you were smart enough to handle a $300B gift is beyond me.
lol, collective punishment
I kinda agree. I can't imagine that this is going to work. I mean really, if you punish those who aren't responisble (the average palestinian) won't they hate you more? I mean I know I'd be able to see someone's point about other people after you make my life miserable. Or more likely, I'd just wanna punch you in the nose.
The Jews say "We were victims of international politics before. It's the reason to kill Arabian people now. We kill them like Germans killed us 60 years ago. We have that right".
This is what happens when shit tons of money are invested in stupid people! Israel won't be around for much longer.
Gonna laugh my ass off when the Arabs overrun it.
The Yomiuri Shimbun
More than 33,000 people killed themselves in Japan in 2007, the 10th year in a row that the number of suicides exceeded 30,000, the National Police Agency announced Thursday.
It was the second-highest rate since statistics were first kept in 1978.
Among the 33,093 people who took their own lives in 2007, suicides by people in their 30s and those aged 60 or older hit record highs.
According to the latest data, many elderly people killed themselves because they felt lonely. Many people in the prime of their working lives committed suicide because they were fatigued from work. Many elderly people and people who have heavier social and financial burdens apparently felt socially isolated.
The number of suicides by people in their 60s or older was 12,107, 36.6 percent of the total and up 8.9 percent from the previous year. This age group made up the largest portion of the 2007 figure.
It is a brilliant result of the Koizumi reform！
There are still many opinions to recommend Koizumi for the next prime minister.
Hmmmmm...interesting
That's twice as many suicides in Japan as murders in the US. Think about that.
I think the US will catch up soon enough. I suspect McCain is going to win the next "election" and after millions more are out of work and losing their homes. Likely another reason for the lower suicide rate is that pesky religion called Christianity. It says if you kill yourself you go to hell. But it also interpreted by Republicans to believe if you are not rich and do not support Israel, you go to hell as well.
Ok...sorry for the rant...I am done.
[What's the national sport in Japan? It's suicide.]
I'm fired. ---> I'll kill myself immediately.
I make mistakes in business. ---> I'll kill myself to take responsibility.
A painful event happened. ---> I'll kill myself of course.
I'm not an able worker. ---> I'll kill myself soon.
I'm worried about my future vaguely. ---> I'll kill myself nonsensically.
I have a secret. ---> I have to kill myself.
I'm hated by someone. ---> I can't stand it, so I kill myself.
Nobody loves me. ---> I have no reasons to live more.
I'm tired recently. ---> It's too painful to live more.
I'm disgusted with this world. ---> It's a time for suicide.
I'm young yet. ---> I should kill myself to be not late.
I'm old. ---> I sould kill myself. Better late than never.
No friends are mine. ---> So I kill myself.

> Pyongyang, August 19 (KCNA) -- An efficacious vaccine to prevent relapse and metastasis of cancer has been developed in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
> Its developer Ri Il Hun, a section chief of the Tumor Institute under the Academy of Medical Science, told KCNA that it had been developed to prevent liver, lung, stomach and other cancers from relapse and metastasis after operation.
> According to nearly ten years of animal experiments, its cancer growth suppression rate is as high as 68.8 percent, he said.
> The clinical examinations of some 600 patients operated for liver, lung and stomach cancers show that the efficacy of the vaccine is 54, 32.8 and 20.3 percent higher than other medicines in the five-year survival rate, he added.
> Ri Yong Il, a 48-year-old man who took the vaccine more than eight years ago after operation for hepatocellular carcinoma (10x9cm), is still in existence.
> Ri Ton Sop, a 66-year-old man who took the vaccine nine years ago after undergoing an operation for lung cancer, is still alive without any relapse or metastasis.
Dear Leader does it again!
Guess they should've thought about that before they made it so easy to leak.

Awesome. Too bad we'll never see this in US. Amazing...first-world country...no high speed rail. America is such a fucked place.
Read this article about a guy trying to sell his house that is next to Obama's in Chicago:
http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090911/ap_on_re_us/us_obama_s_neighbor
Ok...WTF...the Secret Service blocks off the street and now you need a "background check" to access your own home or sell it? So much for property rights and home ownership in America. What happens if I do not pass a background check? I have to move or sell or just give it to the govt? I am sure the limousine liberals just love the idea of "people must be cleared to live next to the magic black man" but as a "common person" this is a real pain in the ass for those poor bastards who live there.
Just my two cents, but seriously...who in their right mind would put up with this? So he is the president...so what? All that means is he was a better liar to get into office than the other guy and since America has rigged elections, does it matter he was the better liar?
Just my two cents, but you're a fucking loon.

I got 3 right out of 8...
It was a year and a half since I posted that, I haven't the slighest idea what I was referring to exactly. Looking at it again, I notice there are a lot of "a certain" and such vague phrasings in the questions, and several of them are "which out of these several options are NOT", both of which imply the questions are designed to make you fail them - I can tell you that mercury and sulphuric acid are both used to mine gold, but benzene or cyanide? I'd have to guess. Doesn't mean I know nothing about pollutants in gold mining, it just means I can't name ever last one of them.
Basically, the test is stacked against you to unsubtly hammer home some sort of accusation that you are a bad person for not knowing enough about pollution. That's the kind of attitude that is working against environmentalists everywhere.
I got 3 right

Lee Yong-soo, 78, a South Korean who was interviewed during a recent trip to Tokyo,
said she was 14 when Japanese soldiers took her from her home in 1944 to work
as a sex slave in Taiwan.

In the autumn of 1944, when I was 16 years old, my friend, Kim Punsun, and I were
collecting shellfish at the riverside when we noticed an elderly man and a Japanese man
looking down at us form the hillside......
A few days later, Punsun knocked on my window early in the morning,
and whispered to me to follow her quietly. I tip-toed out of the house after her.
A crime to relate to Korean sex prostitution and sex in the evidence holds most of world it.
korean is monkey
>>122
Actually, humans (including Koreans) are a member of the great ape family and genetically diverged from Old World monkeys about 25 million years ago. Now you know!
american is pig disgusting
The point is that the current Japanese generation has nothing to do with WW2. Obviously, Koreans and Chinese people(especially their governments)try to get the enormous amount of money from Japan.
>>125
You should elect a Korean/Chinese as your prime minister, it worked for America.
korean...
korean looks like japanese, they are similar difficult to discern.
I have always wanted a sex slave.
