我们加国华人，对此会不会问心有愧？

独立意志

但是，首先要多党竞选，然后再一党执政。

如此筛选出的执政党，才可能较廉洁、较奉公、较守法、较进取。而且，此党在执政期间，必须受严格监督。

战争--如何才能避免和改变这个人类古老而野蛮的对抗方式？

自从有了人类，在各个族裔发生利益冲突激烈到一定程度，就会发生战争。据说古猿人时代，就已经发生同类相残的战争，北京猿人和同期发现的七处欧洲猿人头骨化石全部发现被利器刮凿的痕迹。人类只有正视过去，放弃这种野蛮的处理冲突方式，才可能在核武器太空武器发达的未来不被自己灭绝。这个进化过程必须是走向文明，走向民主。

美国日本也必须正视自己在历史上犯下的罪行，人类也必须思考和建立新的非武力的国际次序。诉讼不仅仅是赔偿和道歉，还要加入国际监督和约束，头脑清醒的日本人民和世界人民应该能够理解和支持。

加拿大人民爱好和平，反对战争，应该在291号动议中加入反战的内容，才能够从一个更高的层次来看待慰安妇这个历史问题。大家应当理解：这不仅是一个历史问题，也是一个关系到未来世界和平的大问题。

当然从一个侧面波及到阿富汗撤军的问题，也可以争取到穆斯林和反战母亲们的支持。不知道代理律师康健女士、加拿大史维会会长王裕佳医生怎么看？

Netherlands Demands Japan Fully Recognises 'Comfort Girls'   http://www.nisnews.nl/public/091107_1.htm

THE HAGUE, 09/11/07 - The Lower House wants Japan to fully recognisethe fate of the so-called 'comfort girls' and offer compensation to survivors. All parties yesterday voted in favour of a conservative (VVD) motion aimed at this.

Foreign Minister Maxime Verhagen has said he is prepared to implement the unanimous motion. This means he will convey the wishes of the House to Tokyo."The motion asks from Japan that it fully recognises the fate of the comfort girls,offers apologies, takes full responsibility for this war crime, offers damages to the comfort girls still alive and sees to it that there is objective lesson material about Japan's role in WWII in general and in relation to the comfort girls in particular," according to VVD MP Hans van Baalen.
Three women who were forced into prostitution for Japanese soldiers before and during the Second World War began a tour of four European cities in the Netherlands in The Hague last Friday. They presented a petition to Lower House
standing committee on foreign affairs chairman Hans van Baalen, in which the House was asked to put pressure on Japan as has now happened.

During the Second World War, an estimated 200,000 girls and women from various Asian countries were systematically press-ganged, raped and abused by the Japanese army. This also happened in present-day Indonesia, a Dutch colony at that time. Japan officially apologised in 1993, but parliament never
approved this. According to the House, Japanese politicians have qualified or trivialised the fate of the comfort girls.

FACTS ON JAPANESE MILITARY SEXUAL SLAVERY
(Information provided by ALPHA)

Between 1932 and 1945, over 200,000 women and children of Korean, Chinese, Filipino, Indonesian, Burmese and Dutch origin were kidnapped or forced into the sex slavery system enforced by the Japanese Imperial Army. These victims, some as young as twelve, were systematically raped and tortured in so-called ‘comfort stations‘, and coerced to have sex with up to 40 soldiers a day...every day for years. Many of them died after suffering unimaginable abuses. Now after all these years, the Japanese Government still refuses to accept responsibility for their crimes...or acknowledge their guilt...or apologize to the hundreds of thousands of women who suffered from these shameful and inhuman deeds. Why? Why can a country that aspires to be a member of the UN Security Council be allowed to perpetuate this legacy of shame, abetted by the silence of countries such as Canada and the United States?


World recognition of the sexual slavery system

1987, Professor Jeong-Ok Yoon of Ehwa University in South Korea reported on the tragedy of Japanese Military Sexual Slavery, and brought an international awareness to the subject.

1991, a former Japanese Military sexual slave, Hak-Soon Kim, testified publicly that she was a “comfort woman” during WWII, and in the same year a lawsuit was brought against the Japanese government.

1992, Professor Yoshimi Yoshiaki of Chuo University in Japan found wartime documents in the Library of the National Institute for Defense Studies that confirmed the existence of “comfort stations.”

1993, ‘Kono Statement’ was brought up by Chief Cabinet Secretary Yohei Kono admitting that the military played a central role in coercing women to become sex slaves. The Kono Statement was never approved by the Japanese parliament.

1996, The U.N. Special Rapporteur on Violence Against Women, and the Special Rapporteur on Contemporary Forms of Slavery, Systematic Rape, Sexual Slavery and Slavery-Like Practices during Armed Conflict, reported on Japanese Military Sexual Slavery. They strongly recommended the Japanese government to take legal responsibilities for the violations of international law.

1998, UN Human Rights Commission criticized and called for Japan to compensate officially victims of the military sexual slavery system, and to prosecute the perpetrators who were responsible for the human rights violating system.

2000, Women’s International War Crimes Tribunal on Japanese Military Sexual Slavery

2006, Amnesty International criticized the Asian Women’s Fund and called on Japan to pay official compensation to former ‘comfort women’.

2007, UN Committee Against Torture reported that the victims are experiencing "continuing abuse and re-traumatization as a result of the state party's official denial of the facts, concealment or failure to disclose other facts, failure to prosecute those criminally responsible for acts of torture, and failure to provide adequate rehabilitation to the victims and survivors."

2007, The Japan Federation of Bar Associations dispatched members to the related countries to look into damage reports, and it publicized the results. Based on its findings, the federation has four times urged the prime minister to make a formal apology and extend compensation to individuals.

What are Japan’s responses towards these world condemnations?
• To this date, the Japanese government has offered neither public apology for implementing the “comfort system,” nor reparations to the victims of Japanese Military Sexual Slavery. All “comfort women” lawsuits have been rejected.

• The Japanese government hid relevant documents from public examination.

• [I]A private foundation, “the Asian Women’s Fund” was set up in Japan to evade its legal responsibilities[/I] .

• Under the pressure from the then Deputy Cabinet Secretary Abe Shinzo and the Economics and Industry Minister Nakagawa Shoichi, NHK altered the TV program about the Year 2000 Women’s International War Crimes Tribunal on Japanese Military Sexual Slavery. (http://japanfocus.org/products/details/2352)

• In 2001, a Japanese right wing nationalist organization, the History Textbook Reform Society, published high school textbooks which justified the role of militarism and colonialism in Asia before and during World War II.

• By 2005, the then Education Minister Nariaki Nakayama denied the existence of ‘comfort women’. Of the group of 8 textbooks approved by the Ministry of Education, 7 omitted references to ‘comfort women’. Mr. Nariaki Nakayama supported the omissions, stating that references to ‘comfort women’ in textbooks was an ‘incorrect description’

• In 2007, former Education Minister Nariaki Nakayama led a group of some 120 ruling LDP legislators to urge carrying out a study with the objective to water down parts of the Kono apology and deny direct military involvement.

• March 2007, the Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe openly denied that the military had forced women into sexual slavery during World War II and stated that "there is no evidence to prove there was coercion".

U.S. House urges clear apology

Editorial of Japan Times
August 2, 2007

The U.S. House of Representatives on Monday passed by voice vote a resolution urging Japan to "formally acknowledge, apologize and accept historical responsibility in a clear and unequivocal manner for its Imperial Armed Forces' coercion of young (Asian) women into sexual slavery."

Passage follows approval by the House Foreign Affairs Committee on June 26. The nonbinding resolution says in part that "the United States-Japan alliance is the cornerstone of U.S. security interests in Asia and the Pacific and is fundamental to regional stability and prosperity." But the fact that the full House approved the resolution carries great weight and is a political blow to Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Similar resolutions on the issue of the Japanese military's use of "comfort women" were submitted four times from 2001 to
2006. This is the first time that the full House has passed such a resolution.

In his April visit to the U.S., Mr. Abe said he sympathizes from the bottom of his heart with former comfort women who went through extreme hardships, and President George W. Bush accepted his apology. Mr. Abe should seriously
consider that the full House approved the resolution despite Mr. Bush's acceptance of his apology. He should realize that his own attempt in early March to dilute Japan's responsibility for instituting sexual servitude prompted the resolution. At that time, he said testimonies had not proven the existence of
coercion in a "narrow sense" — in which "government authorities" intruded into homes and took women away by force.

The resolution in part says that the U.S.-Japan alliance is based on shared vital values such as the preservation and promotion of political and economic freedoms, support for human rights and democratic institutions. But the approval of the resolution shows that many U.S. lawmakers distrust Mr. Abe's attitude toward Japan's human rights violations of the past. Mr. Abe should realize that the problem of perception of history exists not only with Japan's neighbors in Asia but also with the U.S .  and could undermine Japan-U.S. ties.

This following is an extract   originated from the Globe and Mail :


1.
"Why? Why can a country(Japan) that aspires to be a member of the UN Security Council be allowed to perpetuate this legacy of shame, abetted by countries such as Canada and the United States?


2. "Does Canada Have A Role In All This?

After World War II, Canada, along with the United States and 46 otherallied nations, at the exclusion of the major victim countries Chinaand Korea, signed the 1951 San Francisco Peace Treaty, which absolved Japan from paying any significant war reparation at thetime.

Today, the treaty is often used by the Japanese court and
government to reject all lawsuits   through which prisoners of war,forced labourers, victims of biological and chemical warfare, and ofcourse the “comfort women” themselves have sought justice.

Canada, through its silence, is abetting this injustice. Morally
and legally, as a signatory nation of the Peace Treaty, our country has an obligation to speak out and condemn these blatant human rights violation "

回复：问心有愧的是那些试图控制别人思想的人



你这是胡说八道!

以前中国历史上也曾有过共产党和国民党几次握手的时代. 最后怎么样呢? 死亡的人更多!

中国只需要一个政府, 一个政党!

你宣传的那种所谓的民主共和只能是使中国四分五裂. 走向衰落灭亡! 也正符合了你的主子美帝国主义和日本帝国主义的梦想.

你知道“国共合作”？请参看《维基百科》之“国共关系”：
对中共官方党史持异议的人批评，诸如国共第一次、第二次合作的说法完全是共产党单方面说词，所谓国共第一次合作的真相是孙中山联俄容共，根本谈不上与中共的对等合作，所谓第二次国共合作则是面临被剿灭危险的中共在国难当头的背景下向国民政府假意输诚，更谈不上什么对等合作。中共的历史解释目的是为其对中华民国政府的反抗行为寻找合法性。
支持中共官方说法的人则认为:国共合作对于两岸三地的中华民族来说都是民族融合、结束民族分裂的体现。
也有泛绿人士戏称，每次国共合作，国民党都以失败告终，国民党还没学到教训吗？

中国只需要一个政府, 一个政党! -- 你是一个完全的修正主义者，苏联行不通的，中国可以吗？

回复：我看得见的未必其他人可以看见


看样子你对共党有深仇大恨。有些人被叫做汉奸是错误的（如你文中的刘少奇），但有些人，他们出卖了祖国，确实是汉奸。要分清党和国家是不同的概念。不能因为你恨一个党，然后就恨那个党统治的国家。你的祖国和老百姓不欠你什么。

武断了，我对党没有深仇大恨，我是八十年代的学生党员，我们全家是党员，毕业后担任过三年的青年工作（二千多人国企的团委书记）。美国人也不是我的主子，家父打过鸭绿江的故事激励我在所有场合去战胜白人。每一个华人都愿意看到自己的祖国日益强大，祖国是我们的脊梁！

说起党，就不得不提及信仰。共产主义是每一个共产党人的信仰，是无数革命先烈抛头颅洒热血为之奋斗的理想。或许现在的大学生入党是为了好的工作，到了单位学生党员容易被提拔重用，但是八十年代不是这样子的。不过我们不得不看到党的章程不断再被修改，党的路线不断被修正。这种事实上的修正主义是不是违背了中华传统的“义”？把坚持独立自主改为洋务买办算不算“卖党卖国”？
