Answer-not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him, [26:4, King Solomon]./
The reason this Olympics was louder was because of the rising sun flag, a symbol of Japanese militarism and a 'war criminal flag'. In particular, a rock wall shaped like a rising sun flag was installed at the climbing arena.
The Japanese government is in a position to allow the Rising Sun flag at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. They maintain the attitude that "they have no political intent and are merely a flag widely used in Japan."
The Rising Sun Flag, which was the flag of the former Japanese Empire in the WorldWar II, is remembered as a “symbol of Japanese militarism†in Korea and China, which were victims of Japanese military aggression in the 20th century. The Japanese government is using the flag symbolizing war crimes even though it has not paid due compensation to the victims and has not fully reflected on its own history..
See you back here soon! I’ve never been to Tokyo, I bet it’s a fine place!
Remember when DNC , Joe, Kamala, Pelosi, called this "Trumps Untrustworthy COVID Vaccine" all 2020 long and questioned who in the "right mind" would take!. Did u watch CNN in 2020 endless videos online of CNN and all DNC slamming Trump's COVID Vaccine that Joe is now forcing into people.
If you followed Joe and Kamala's 2020 COVID advice, you might be dead!
I got both of mine. I am not stupid. But all 2020 long Joe and Kamala on tape on CNN, MSNBC, all saying DO NOT TRUST TRUMP'S COVID VACCINE.
Shall I role the tape, it will take a full day because so many Dem Politicians HATED THIS VACCINE and said "DO NOT NOT TRUMPS TRUMP's COVID VACCINE" till Joe was POTUS!
I saw this earlier on the Nightly News but was hoping it would be a more in depth look at Tokyo, a very interesting place I never saw but heard many, many good things about .
Lester "Objectivity is Overrated" Holt had to spend 14 days in quarantine. He was offered 7 days if he promised to be objective.
Tokyo has done a great job of hosting the Olympics.
I love Japanese food
Poor Lester Holt….give me a break…..this is the biggest non story of the olympics to date.
So 🦞 ….
Tokyo is COOLER .BETTER, CLEANER, NICER than New York ???
[Thomas Bach / IOC President: Billions of people around the world are accepting the success of this Olympic Games as a great message of hope.]
IOC President Thomas Bach as well as other Olympic officials said that the Japanese government's quarantine measures were successful.
[Brian McCloskey / Tokyo Olympic Advisory Expert Panel: I have confirmed that the (prevention) measures by the authorities have been very well done over the past 4 weeks.]
As the self-congratulatory praise continued, the Japanese people were outraged.
He called Bach an "Olympic aristocrat trapped in a delusion."
"There is no hope for those in the medical field who risk their lives for the Olympics," he said.
Despite the state of emergency, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in Japan has surpassed 1 million.
In Japan, there is also an analysis that the Olympics created a festive atmosphere and influenced the spread of Corona 19.
[Fumiko Nakata/Sapporo citizen: This is the first and last chance to see the Olympics in person in your life. So I came out (to watch the marathon).]
However, Prime Minister Suga called for criticism by drawing a line that the hosting of the Olympics and the spread of the coronavirus were not related.
[Yoshihide Suga / Prime Minister of Japan (last 6th): I do not believe that the increase in the number of COVID-19 cases is due to the Olympics.]
Today (7th), 22 additional people including volunteers were confirmed at the Athletes' Village.
A total of 209 people from the Tokyo Olympics have contracted COVID-19 so far.
Japan and Germany are compared in the case of forced labor and comfort women. This is not a matter of Korea-Japan relations or national relations, it is a matter of war crimes. Germany has admitted to the crime, made practicable reparations, and Chancellor Willy Brandt got down on his knees and apologized. Conversely, Japan turned to the anti-Japanese sentiment of the Korean people and covered up their war crimes.
I think Japan's attitude is close to the essence of history. I had been in Japan for about 3 years, and I was quite surprised to see that Japanese people had no war criminal consciousness at all. They only thought of themselves as victims of the atomic bomb. The defeat in World War II was an opportunity to abolish not only militarism but ultimately the imperial system, but the United States interfered with it, such as granting indulgences to the emperor. Since modern times, Europe, Britain, and the United States have mainly targeted China and used Japan as an ally.
If the Japanese perspective does not change, there will be no peace in East Asia. The root of the East Asian problem is the Japanese right wing.
Japan must first come up with a solution to the issue of comfort women and forced labor. The solution isn't great. It is to admit that the issues of colonial rule and aggression, which were not recognized even in the 1965 Korea-Japan agreement, were illegal and cannot be justified, and even pretend to apologize and compensate. If not, Japan should be ashamed.
Japan is so refreshing.Put your bags down anywhere and no one will touch them.Try that in America Lester….
The IOC president said the Tokyo Olympics "far exceeded my personal expectations".
At a press conference held in Tokyo on the same day, Bach said that he regarded Tokyo as "the city most prepared for the Olympics so far", citing the 'efficiency' of measures against COVID-19, and that it turned out to be true.
"The Olympics have nothing to do with Tokyo's surge in COVID-19 cases," he said.
However, despite the IOC's positive evaluation of the Olympics, the cumulative number of confirmed COVID-19 related to the Tokyo Olympics has reached 400 by the 6th, and the number of corona19 confirmed in Tokyo, where the Olympics is being held, is exceeded 5,000 for the first time in history as of the 5th August.
The Japanese government is accusing the Republic of Korea government of providing korean meal boxes to the Korean athletes participating in the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, and the Japanese government continues to argue that food from Fukushima is safe.
However, the Korean national team meal service center has been operated every time since the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Japan also operated a separate Japanese food service facility for the purpose of preventing food poisoning at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. The United States also decided to procure its own meals using its own ingredients during Tokyo Olympic period.
There are suspicions that Japan's exceptionally sensitive reaction to Korean meal boxes is an attempt to divert public opinion elsewhere after the goal of the "Fukushima revival Olympics" has actually failed. Due to the spread of Covid-19, the Tokyo Olympics are more emphasizing the 'safety and safe Olympics' than the 'revival Olympics', and even this is being shaken by the explosive spread of Covid-19 in Japan.
