Help Us to Stop Insanity of Japan

Japan"s prime minister Abe visited Yasukuni Shrine yesterday. Visiting Yasukuni means to consider the war criminals of the World War II as national heroes. He doesn"t accept the historical view that Japan was wrong in its imperialistic and militalistic way to invade other countries and kill more than ten million people.
He wants to make Japan a militarily strong country ruled by the emperor like 70 years ago. His policy is to change the constitution that bans to go into wars and build a strong army. Actually he wants to start a war, we are worrying. He is now doing everything for the purpose, against strong opposition of the people including scholars, lawers, artists,journalists,medias. Many people have had demonstrations against his policy, but he never listens. He neither listens to the old members of his own party, or even the U.S.A., his boss. He is happy with the praise from right wing, especially internet right wing. He is a stupid , unmature paranoia, but he has a position in power. Even a member of the government said, "No one can stop him."
Abe's politics is not a problem only inside Japan, but also world political issue. He doesn't think that Japan behaved wrong to Korea and China, and so he doesn't understand what do the people of those countries feel. He believes Japan doesn't need to apologize about the killing or the military sex slaves. These years the tension around East Asia is increasing, and Abe's politics is making it worse. The prime minister's visiting Yasukuni means an intentional insult to Korea and China. The tension can happen to go into a war easily, we are afraid. There are people who welcome the war, like big businesses that want to make and sell weapons and people who hates Korea and China not knowing what war is like. There seems to be some power that likes to go into war easily also in China.
One more big problem of Abe is nuclear power issue. There are people who think Japan should keep nuclear power as a weapon. Also, nukes and its plants is one of the biggest businesses many people parasite. Even after that serious disaster in Fukushima, not finding the way to control it with contaminated water pouring into the sea every day and more than fifteen thousand refugees, Abe is going to move the nuclear power plants again and even build new ones. Moreover he is selling the plants to Asian and the Near and Middle Eastern countries. As you know, Japan is called a nest of earthquake, and huge ones are predicted. We should know all the earth will be contaminated seriously once those plants break, and we can't avoid accidents or errors forever.
We are now doing a lot to stop Abe's politics, but not enough. Many are having gatherings, are marching, making speeches, writing in the papers, but they won't listen. During Abe's dynasty they are going to do everything they want, everything they couldnot do before. You may say who that elected Abe's party is us. It's true though I don't like to admit it. I want to write about it next time. As I nave written, the matter is concerning to the world peace and environment. We will do our best here in Japan, so please help us to stop wars and nukes. Send messages to Japan. Don't buy power plants from Japan, please.
