hawkmoon decamped voluntarily when found wanting just so ... siliconinvestor.com and as followup, per watch & brief ... the issue seemed so and would not go away ... truth is that way cnbc.com South Korea says 2015 agreement with Japan on WWII 'comfort women' is flawed South Korean President Moon Jae-in said on Thursday that a 2015 agreement with Japan over South Korean "comfort women" was seriously flawed and urged follow-up measures to resolve the contentious issue. South Korea on Wednesday said the 2015 deal with Japan over "comfort women" forced to work in Japan's wartime military brothels failed to meet the victims' needs, throwing ties into doubt as both countries seek to rein in North Korea. "The agreement cannot solve the comfort women issue," Moon said, calling the deal a "political agreement that excludes victims and the public" and violates general principles in international society concerning resolution of historical issues, according to a Blue House statement. Under the 2015 deal, endorsed by Moon's predecessor and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, Japan apologized to former comfort women and provided 1 billion yen ($8.8 million) to a fund to help them. The two governments had agreed the issue would be "irreversibly resolved" if both fulfilled their obligations. Japan said on Wednesday any attempt by South Korea to revise the 2015 deal would make relations "unmanageable," with Japanese Foreign Minister Taro Kono saying the settlement had resulted from "legitimate negotiations." Despite the divisive issue, Moon pledged on Thursday to normalize diplomatic relations with Japan and work toward "future-oriented cooperation" with the neighboring country.

I must admit that I find myself honored, and somewhat bemused, that my comments from 2011 are still being read/cited.. But my views have come true.. China is, illegally, militarizing the S. China Sea and attempting to encroach on other countries maritime economic zones. And the lies involving the "comfort women" fraud are still just a glaring.. If anyone doubts this, they should ask themselves why their former President, Park Chung Hee, attended the Japanese Military Academy? THAT indicates a HIGH DEGREE of integration into Japanese society on the part of Koreans living under the Japanese colonial period. They were hardly a "occupied" country or people. Colonized yes, but they had been colonized by the Chinese prior to that.. (which Tobago Jack would conveniently overlook).. Occupied people don't serve in the army of their conqueror.. They also don't permit those colonizers to sell their women into extensive sex slavery (unless it's to service Korean Soldiers serving in the Imperial Japanese Army).. Btw, Japanese soldiers considered it beneath their dignity to have sex with non-Japanese women.. Not saying it didn't happen, but they certainly preferred Japanese prostitutes.. (who were paid, not enslaved).. Maybe TJ would like to discuss the 30 to 45 million Chinese that died under "Great Leap Forward"? sjsu.edu
