Summary / Abstract (Note) | The editorial chiefs of two major newspapers discuss Prime Minister Koizumi's visits to Yasukuni Shrine, noting that this shrine not only venerates class A war criminals but also operates a memorial museum that glorifies militarism. Both favor construction of a new memorial facility for the war dead and clarification of the responsibility among those who led Japan into war. |
