Japanese officials are asking a small

northern New Jersey town with a large Korean immigrant population to remove a public monument dedicated to women who were forced into sexual slavery by Japanese soldiers during World War II.
…
Town officials have declined the request to remove the plaque. It was dedicated in 2010 to the “comfort women” of World War II, many of whom were Korean. [T]he Japanese governments’ opposition to it is galvanizing efforts in Korean communities across the U.S. to build similar memorials.

When trying to put your brutality and barbarism behind you,
don’t complain about your victims’ scars.

What’s next, requesting that the USS Arizona Memorial be removed?
Tell you what: we’ll remove the comfort-women memorial when you re-dedicate the Hiroshima Memorial to the notion that you brought it upon yourselves.

As horrible as this vile episode was, at least the Japanese Imperial Staff had what sounded like
civilized reasons for it.

Now, what about that other totalitarian ideology which tolerates/promotes the murder of rape victims, the treatment of women as property, and the rape of infidels? That ideology has monuments all over this country. Unfortunately, mosques are commonly seen as positive symbols rather than symbols of barbarity.
(What? Yeah, just hope it doesn’t have to be fixed the same way.)
