Finally, the time has come for us
to be able to revise the constitution
-
But we can not prolong it
any further
-
(Former MOJ Minister, Jinen Nagase)
The draft of constitution has been
announced
-
To be honest, I'm not happy
with (the draft)
-
What it's saying, in the first of all, is...
-
popular sovereignty, basic human rights, pacifism...
-
it's saying that it will stick to them
-
If we don't get rid of those three things,
it won't be a true, independent constitution
-
Audience claps
-
For example, when we were told
"human rights are so and so"...
-
and how "peace is so and so"...
-
Don't we feel intimidated?
-
That's because we have been taught that
-
over and over since the elementary school!
-
To be able to restore it will be a
difficult task
-
So let us stand together and fight on.

(Former MOFA Deputy Minister Minoru Kiuchi)
What I think is the most important thing
in Japan is...
-
it is Imperial House of Japan, and it is
Kokutai (nationalist idea of a state)
-
We'd have to prepare to protect
-
our history, our tradition, our national
character...
-
(LDP Chairwoman of the Policy Research Council, Tomomi Inada )
We have submitted a draft of constitution
that allow us to create a national defense force
-
(Former MIC Minister, Yoshitaka Shindo)
But what we really need right now...
is to take action.
-
To actualize it into reality
-
Everyone, let us revise the constitution!
-
Let us take back our territories that are
taken away from us!
-
Northern Territories! Takeshima!
-
Just asserting it won't do, we must take
action
-
Also, Senkaku Islands. Let's use it.
Let us use military action.
