 the continued radioactive contamination of the people. It also looks at the 
 struggle of the Okinawa people against militarization and Jeju, Korea where 
 a a base is being constructed for the expansion of the US military. \nWith 
 the growing militarization of Asia including the Abe government in Japan. I 
 it  is seeking to remove Article 9 in the constitution which forbids 
 foreign military intervention unless Japan is attacked the government is 
 seeking the full militarization of Japan. It is also pushing a campaign 
 around the world to deny that the Japanese military role in  “Comfort 
 Women” who were coerced and used as sex slaves to for the military. This 
 denialism of history is part of the effort to defend the history of the 
 imperial role of Japan and is connected to the drive\ntoward
