- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5It’s deplorable that local governments are allowing the erection of comfort women monuments. It is alleged by some Korean factions that Korean women were used as sex slaves by the Japanese military during the Second World War – this has not been incontrovertibly proven. Through many official military reports, the United States Military, in its independent investigation during and after the war, refutes this allegation. What emerges more as fact is that the Korean women and those of other ethnicities including Japanese women, were legally paid prostitutes. The comfort women syndrome in turn is being used by globalist factions for political reasons. It enhances the notion of women in general being used as sex objects by the usual brutal macho men. This tends to enhance the already inordinate empowerment of women, the movements (not all of course) that are clearly anti-male, thereby creating further divisions between men and women. The globalists can also use the comfort women syndrome to further create a political demonization of Japan and also its ally, the United States. As I write this comment, the city of Brookhaven which is in the outskirts of Atlanta, is proceeding with another monument – our American cities are becoming useful tools for more division and chaos based on a dangerous globalist agenda. GOD HELP AMERICA!
