Neo-Nazi photos pose headache for Shinzo Abe

Barely a week after Japan’s prime minister, Shinzo Abe, overhauled his administration amid flagging popularity, two of his senior colleagues have been forced to distance themselves from rightwing extremism after photographs emerged of them posing with the country’s leading neo-Nazi.
Sanae Takaichi, the internal affairs minister, was among a record-equalling five women selected by Abe as he attempts to make his cabinet more female voter-friendly and to increase women’s presence in the workplace.
Takaichi, an Abe ally on the right of the governing Liberal Democratic party (LDP), was pictured posing alongside Kazunari Yamada, the 52-year-old leader of the National Socialist Japanese Workers party, on the neo-Nazi party’s website.
A smiling Takaichi and Yamada appear together standing in front of a Japanese flag.
Yamada has voiced praise for Adolf Hitler and the September 2001 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre. In a YouTube video Yamada’s supporters are seen wearing swastika armbands, while he denies the Holocaust took place and criticises postwar Germany’s ban on the Nazi salute, accusing the country of being “no different from North Korea”.
Takaichi met Yamada “for talks” at her office in the summer of 2011, according to her office. Confirming the photographs were genuine, a spokesman for Takaichi claimed her office had been unaware of Yamada’s extremist views at the time.
“[He] was an assistant to an interviewer and was taking notes and photos,” a member of Takaichi’s staff told AFP. “We had no idea who he was back then but he requested a snap shot with her. [She] wouldn’t have refused such requests.”
Media coverage prompted her office to request that the photographs be removed but by then they had already been widely circulated on social media.
“It was careless of us,” the staff member said, adding that Takaichi did not share Yamada’s views “at all … it is a nuisance”.
A second photograph shows Yamada standing alongside Tomomi Inada, another close Abe ally who was given the powerful job of LDP policy chief. Inada’s office was quick to distance the MP from Yamada, whose website celebrates the “samurai spirit” and proclaims that the “sun shall rise again”, saying it would be disappointed if the photograph led people to “misunderstand what she does”.
While there is no evidence that either politician shares Yamada’s neo-Nazi ideology their appointment has fuelled accusations that Abe is taking his administration even further to the right.
Takaichi and Inada have both visited Yasukuni shrine, which honours Japan’s war dead, including 14 class-A war criminals; last week, Takaichi said she would visit Yasukuni again, this time in her role as minister. “I’ve been visiting Yasukuni as one Japanese individual, to offer my sincere appreciation to the spirits of war dead,” she told reporters. “I intend to continue offering my sincere appreciation as an individual Japanese.”
China and South Korea view politicians’ pilgrimages to the shrine as evidence that Japan has yet to atone for atrocities committed on the Asian mainland before and during the second world war.

高市早苗・稲田朋美の露骨な右傾化は安倍政権を追いつめ国を滅ぼす?
高市早苗は右寄りどころか極右勢力とつながっていた？。天皇陛下さえ避けている靖国参拝を平気で続けている。右翼というより破滅主義者かも知れない。右翼は皇室の意志を尊重する。皇室まで手繰ろうとしたり、愚弄するのは右翼の風上にも置けないただの破滅主義者だろう。
稲田朋美？、確かこの人は勝手に民主党から鞍替えして問題になった不届き政治家ではなかったか。何の信条もない。あるのは目先の利益、個人の都合ばかりだろう。だからこのようなことも平気でやるんだ。
極右とされているこの人は誰だろう？
雑誌の紹介で会って写真を撮ったと二人とも言っているがどんな雑誌だったのか？。胡散臭い雑誌なのか反社会的雑誌なのか。相手も知らず会うことは損得を考える政治家にはあり得ないことだ。
この二人が問題なのは信条が極右なら堂々と振る舞えばよい。逃げ隠れするなら本当の信条は何か分からない。政治家として失格だ。まあ、稲田は何処にでも転ぶ日和見主義者だから痛くもかゆくもないのだろう。
