Minju Joson Tuesday in a commentary says that what he uttered is no more than balderdash that provokes a side-splitting laughter.

The issue of selecting a permanent member is not one of giving leniency to such country as Japan which has not yet shaken off its disgrace of being a war criminal state, the commentary says, adding:

Japan has never been a pacifist state but remains a dangerous country as it stands for a war. Selecting Japan as a permanent member of the UNSC is a challenge to the desire of mankind for peace.

Had Japan truly wanted peaceful development, it should have already redressed its inglorious past.

Japan adopted the security bills despite strong opposition of the international community, disclosing its undisguised sinister scenario to realize the ambition for overseas aggression at any cost.

Japan is making a bid for the permanent membership of the UNSC, showing off its purse, unaware of how the international community views it. This silly behavior is nothing but a reckless action.

Japan's politicians should clearly understand why people call them political dwarfs, drop foolish daydream and fulfill their commitments.
