Japan's Sexual Slavery during War Exposed

Pyongyang, August 30 (KCNA) -- A secret document has been recently discovered at the archives of the Japanese Ministry of Defense. It was "Confidential Document No. 118" sent to the chief of staff of the forces of the Japanese Army in Taiwan by an aide to the Japanese Minister of Army on June 13, 1942. The document said: "20 more sexual slaves are dispatched to "comfort houses" of the field army in line with a report that 50 sexual slaves are not enough and at the request of the chief of the staff of the forces of the Japanese Army in Taiwan for more.

Rodong Sinmun Thursday says in a bylined commentary in this regards:

This gives the lie to the assertion of the Japanese government that the Imperial Japanese Army had not been involved in the operation of "comfort houses".

However, the Japanese reactionaries are insisting that there had not been such a happening.

This shows how despicably they are working to gloss over the past crimes against humanity and evade their liquidation.

No matter how desperately Japanese samurais may try, history can neither be created nor written off. The Japanese reactionaries are foolishly trying to avoid the past crimes.

Japan would be well advised to stop the absurd moves for denying history but candidly admit and apologize for its past crimes and take steps to repent of them at an early date.
