Since 2009 Japan has been pushing for the UNESCO to recognize several industrial steel factories as “World Heritage Sites”. The problem is that some of them were operated using slave laborers from Korea!
Koreans are specifically angry about Yawata (Yahata) Steel Works. The factory was built in 1896 on the former location of the town of Yahata, Japan. It’s interesting that the Wikipedia entry for the factory makes no mention of the use of slave laborers during the first half of the 20th Century.
Koreans are also upset over the Hashima (Nagasaki-ken) shipyards, basically a shipyard island reminiscent of California’s Alcatraz prison. No walls were needed to hold in the slaves because they were surrounded by ocean.
Japan ‘administered’ Korea as a “protectorate” from 1876 to 1945. Japan saw Korea as a Japanese colony, and began settling Japanese in earnest in 1910. Displaced Koreans were often forced into slave labor. Japan even went so far as to create official history research groups to prove that Korea belonged to the Japanese!
Koreans were also sent to Japan to Japanify them and to help the Japanese military industrial complex (under the National Mobilization Law, you see laws can be bad). According to the Korean Youth Association, when U.S. forces occupied Japan in 1945 they discovered that at least 13% of the 2-million+ Koreans living in Japan were outright slaves! In one year alone (1944-45) 670-thousand Koreans were forced to work in Japan! At least 60-thousand died! And this is just the stats for those who were forced to work in Japan, the Nipponese had slave laborers all over mainland Asia.
Koreans rightly say that instead of naming Yawata (Yahata) Steel Works and Hashima (Nagasaki-ken) shipyards as World Heritage sites they should be treated like NAZI concentration camps, such as Auschwitz-Birkenau, and be used to remind the Japanese of their dishonorable behavior!
Remember, Japan is a puppet of the United States, and the Obama regime has repeatedly stated they will back up Japan even if it means war with China or North Korea. Obama is not bringing the troops back home from the illegal War on Terror, he’s shifting U.S. military power to Japan, and South Korea, for the coming war with China.

The Trilateral Commission was founded by David Rockefeller in 1973. The official goal is to foster economic and political co-operation between Japan, North American countries and European countries (notice these are the regions that are currently in big economic trouble).
In 2000, the Japan membership was expanded to include many other Asian countries, and is now called the Pacific Asian Group.
In April 2013, Japan became a member of NATO (which has become the Trilateral Commission’s military unit): “…..You might ask why the Secretary General of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization should come to the Pacific region. The answer is very simple. Today’s NATO is a new NATO. It’s a NATO with a global perspective. It’s a NATO with global partners. And Japan is our longest-standing global partner…..NATO and Japan are like-minded……we can help the United Nations and the international community to reinforce the rules-based international system……we need common approaches and responses…….To confront global threats such as terrorism, cyber attacks, and proliferation…..And I am delighted that later today, Prime Minister Abe and I will sign a Joint Political Declaration to guide our future work.”-Anders Fogh Rasmussen, NATO Secretary General, from statement made on the morning of 15 April 2013, Japan National Press Club
